Support More/All ESBuild options

[HenrySkup]

Hi, ran across an issue trying to import an .svg and then have ESBuild resolve the import. (I'm. getting : File extension not supported: ../logo.svg).

As per this issue this should be possible if you are able to specify the loader option.

From the Hugo docs, it is not clear how to specify this. Could we map the options dict to the flag names to be able to access all the options?

@bep Is there a way to access all other ESBuild options? It is not clear to me as well from the Hugo documentation. For example I want to access JSX factory and JSX fragment options in order for to use Preact inside Hugo, however I do not know to how to add this options in Hugo. Is this possible?

I solved this (only for ESBuild options to use Preact) after looking at this question on discourse: https://discourse.gohugo.io/t/javascript-build-jsx-factory/30268

JSXFactory and JSXFragment options are supported in the source code, however it was not mentioned in Hugo JavaScript Building documentation page. Should I make a pull request to update this page: https://gohugo.io/hugo-pipes/js?

I also created a minimal example of using Preact in Hugo with ESBuild, here is the public repo: github.com/shafiemukhre/preact-hugo-esbuild

Building documentation page. Should I make a pull request to update this page:

@shafiemukhre Yes, please. but please do it in the docs repo.

As to adding "all options": ESBuild is evolving fast and he is adding options all the time; most option need some thinking on the Hugo side, so adding one option isn't cost free (at its minimal we need to update the documentation).
