Compared with vite-node & vite-plugin-node

Hi, can you consider comparing them? 🤔

I'm not sure if I'd consider those TypeScript runtimes.

vite-node even spawns a server: https://github.com/vitest-dev/vitest/blob/326b242d8a7798b517c1c8de93321a983fc4ef09/packages/vite-node/src/cli.ts#L61

It seems more like tooling made for Vite-related development:

Based on @pi0's brilliant idea of having a Vite server as the on-demand transforming service for nuxt/vite#201.

Vite-node is still often used for the purpose of running files but respecting the vite config. I would vote to include it.
