💡 Automatically pick up resolve.alias in webpack

[fregante]

Suggest an idea for Knip

I have this configuration in my webpack.config.js:

    alias: {
      // Not needed in this build
      handlebars: false,

      // https://github.com/webpack/webpack/pull/12693#issuecomment-914079083
      filenamify: "filenamify/browser",

      // Silently improve tree-shakeability and AMD-related errors 
      lodash: "lodash-es",

      // Lighter jQuery version
      jquery: "jquery/dist/jquery.slim.min.js",
    },

In which every lodash import is mapped to lodash-es. This doesn't seem to be picked up by knip, which requires either ignoreDependencies or paths: https://knip.dev/reference/configuration#paths

Can this field be automatically picked up instead? Both for local aliases and node_module aliases
