Needs support for installing local npm packages to the global bin directory, similar to pnpm.

How it is going now? I think the bug here is Vite+ uses package name user entered as the temp directory to install, so if the user enter . it can be $VP_HOME/tmp/packages/. and os will throw errors there. We can adjust parse_package_spec to fix it. @fengmk2

@liangmiQwQ I haven't had time to handle it yet. If you are willing, could you take over?

[liangmiQwQ]

Yes ofc. However I found this could be a little bit harder than I thought. npm uses relative path to create symlinks, but there is a file move happening in the current Vite+, can make the relative path broken. I had previously thought that moving files might lead to issues, and this happens to be an excellent case in point.

I will fix the installation error in #1685 first and then consider how to make it runable.
