Bad state error when using meta.apply and compile with render

[bluwy]

When using the deprecated render API to process sass files (Vite still uses it), and also using meta.apply, it fails with (raw log):

Error: Bad state: Can't access __parent outside of a module.

Using compileString works fine. I'm not sure if it is intentional that this new feature doesn't work with the deprecated render API, but if so I think that's fair and just checking here.

Here's a repro comparing compileString and render: https://stackblitz.com/edit/stackblitz-starters-tirkhu?file=index.js (run node index.js to see error)

This was originally reported at vitejs/vite#15443

Interestingly, renderSync() also works here, so it looks like it has something to do with the asynchrony specifically. Thanks for reporting this, I'll take a look.

Thanks for the quick fix!
