Description

My eslint settings:

'import/no-extraneous-dependencies': ['error', { devDependencies: ['**/*.test.js'] }],

and package.json:

    "devDependencies": {
        ...
        "uuid": "^8.3.0",
    }

The following import does not error:

const v5 = require('uuid/v5')

However it does error, when using exact package name:

const { v5 } = require('uuid')

Its quite common practice, so I believe it should complain also when referencing individual files from a package...

Contributor guide

Research direction
Inspect the rule implementation for no extraneous dependencies to see how it resolves package names and check if subpath imports (e.g., 'uuid/v5') are handled. Look at the resolve function and see if it considers subfolders as part of the package.
