Vite transforms object literal { property: null } to { property }

Issue Description

Using null for property values isn't working correctly.

Input:

const service = {
  scanner: "sample",
  data: null
}

Compiles to:

const service = {
  scanner: "sample",
  data
}

ReferenceError: data is not defined

For now, these workarounds are functional:

const NULL_VALUE = null
const service = {
  scanner: "sample",
  data: NULL_VALUE
}


const data = null
const service = {
  scanner: "sample",
  data
}

Reproduction
