Add `unstable_serverBundles` option to Vite plugin to support splitting server code into multiple request handlers.

This is an advanced feature designed for hosting provider integrations. When compiling your app into multiple server bundles, there will need to be a custom routing layer in front of your app directing requests to the correct bundle. This feature is currently unstable and only designed to gather early feedback.

**Example usage:**

```ts
import { unstable_vitePlugin as remix } from "@remix-run/dev";
import { defineConfig } from "vite";

export default defineConfig({
plugins: [
remix({
unstable_serverBundles: ({ branch }) => {
const isAuthenticatedRoute = branch.some(
(route) => route.id === "routes/_authenticated"
);

return isAuthenticatedRoute
? "authenticated"
: "unauthenticated";
},
}),
],
});
```

# Server Bundles (Unstable)

<docs-warning>This is an advanced feature designed for hosting provider integrations. When compiling your app into multiple server bundles, there will need to be a custom routing layer in front of your app directing requests to the correct bundle. This feature is currently unstable and only designed to gather early feedback.</docs-warning>

Remix typically builds your server code into a bundle that exposes a single request handler function. However, there are some scenarios where you might want to split your route tree into multiple server bundles that expose a request handler function for a subset of routes. To provide this level of flexibility, the [Remix Vite plugin][remix-vite] supports an `unstable_serverBundles` option which is a function for assigning routes to different server bundles.

The provided `unstable_serverBundles` function is called for each route in the tree (except for routes that aren't addressable, e.g. pathless layout routes) and returns a server bundle ID that you'd like to assign it to. These bundle IDs will be used as directory names in your server build directory.

For each route, this function is passed an array of routes leading to and including that route, referred to as the route `branch`. This allows you to create server bundles for different portions of the route tree. For example, you could use this to create a separate server bundle containing all routes within a particular layout route:

```ts filename=vite.config.ts lines=[7-15]
import { unstable_vitePlugin as remix } from "@remix-run/dev";
import { defineConfig } from "vite";

export default defineConfig({
plugins: [
remix({
unstable_serverBundles: ({ branch }) => {
const isAuthenticatedRoute = branch.some(
(route) => route.id === "routes/_authenticated"
);

return isAuthenticatedRoute
? "authenticated"
: "unauthenticated";
},
}),
],
});
```

Each `route` in the `branch` array contains the following properties:

- `id` — The unique ID for this route, named like its `file` but relative to the app directory and without the extension, e.g. `app/routes/gists.$username.tsx` will have an `id` of `routes/gists.$username`.
- `path` — The path this route uses to match on the URL pathname.
- `file` — The absolute path to the entry point for this route.
- `index` — Whether or not this route is an index route.

## Server bundle manifest

When the build is complete, Remix will generate a `bundles.json` manifest file in your server build directory containing an object with the following properties:

- `serverBundles` — An object that maps bundle IDs to the bundle's `id` and `file`.
- `routeIdToServerBundleId` — An object that maps route IDs to its server bundle ID.
- `routes` — A route manifest that maps route IDs to route metadata. This can be used to drive a custom routing layer in front of your Remix request handlers.

## Configuration

The Vite plugin does not use [`remix.config.js`][remix-config]. Instead, the plugin directly accepts the following subset of Remix config options:

- [appDirectory][app-directory]
- [assetsBuildDirectory][assets-build-directory]
- [ignoredRouteFiles][ignored-route-files]
- [publicPath][public-path]
- [routes][routes]
- [serverBuildPath][server-build-path]
- [serverModuleFormat][server-module-format]

All other bundling-related options are now [configured with Vite][vite-config]. This means you have much greater control over the bundling process.

#### Supported Remix config options

The following subset of Remix config options are supported:

- [appDirectory][app-directory]
- [assetsBuildDirectory][assets-build-directory]
- [ignoredRouteFiles][ignored-route-files]
- [publicPath][public-path]
- [routes][routes]
- [serverBuildPath][server-build-path]
- [serverModuleFormat][server-module-format]

The Vite plugin also accepts the following additional options:

#### serverBuildDirectory

The path to the server build directory, relative to the project root. Defaults to `"build/server"`.

#### serverBuildFile

The name of the server file generated in the server build directory. Defaults to `"index.js"`.

#### unstable_serverBundles

A function for assigning addressable routes to [server bundles][server-bundles].

## New build output paths

There is a notable difference with the way Vite manages the `public` directory compared to the existing Remix compiler. During the build, Vite copies files from the `public` directory into `build/client`, whereas the Remix compiler left the `public` directory untouched and used a subdirectory (`public/build`) as the client build directory.
