Description
When importing an CJS package from the config, Vite throws the following errors.
These errors seems to be confusing for the users: https://github.com/sapphi-red/vitepress-plugins/issues?q=is%3Aissue+ERR_REQUIRE_ESM+is%3Aclosed, #13255, https://github.com/Subwaytime/vite-aliases/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aclosed+%22Failed+to+resolve+entry+for+package%22, https://github.com/sveltejs/vite-plugin-svelte/issues?q=is%3Aissue+%22Failed+to+resolve+entry+for+package%22
This PR changes the error message to tell what happened and what needs to be done.
I hope this would unblock plugins to migrate to ESM only.
