Supporting storyStoreV7

[joshwooding]

Has there been any discussions around supporting storyStoreV7? I know I might be jumping the gun a little since it's still in beta :)

I know @tmeasday mentioned it here but curious if there's been any more discussion?

I don't know of any other discussions so far, but it's definitely something I'd love to get working in vite. I haven't spent any time reverse-engineering the webpack loaders so far yet, though. If anyone wants to jump in and play around with it, I'd happily review a PR. :)

@IanVS I'm willing to give it a go :P

Hey folks, ping me if you want more details. Hopefully the way it is structured should make it reasonably straightforward. Here are the relevant bits of the WP4 builder:

1. We create two virtual modules, one of which is an entry point:

2. The entry point looks like this (I suspect it could be copied directly over to Vite, except perhaps for the HMR which might require a bit of thought):

https://github.com/storybooks/storybook/blob/0253a81391a5bea1f0921f9a296d28bf0433a05f/lib/builder-webpack4/src/preview/virtualModuleModernEntry.js.handlebars#L1-L40

3. The second entry is an importFn, which might require some discussion: https://github.com/storybookjs/storybook/blob/719c787150af282fa63cad500cc06919bb0d0bed/lib/core-common/src/utils/to-importFn.ts#L1-L54
