`loader` option in the `application` builder does not work for *.css files.

使用 angular.json、main.ts、ng build 和 ng serve 以及 .css loader 設定，透過最小範例重現此問題。首先追蹤 application builder 對從 TypeScript 匯入的 CSS 的處理方式，然後確認產生的 CSS 已由 served application 載入，並確認在 build 和 serve 模式下行為一致。

Command

build, serve

Description

When trying to import a *.css file inside a *.ts with the following syntax:

import './my-styles.css';

The built css file is never loaded into the application.
I was pointed out in https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/27414 that I should use the new loader however that does not seem to work.

angular.json:

"loader": {
  ".css": "file"
}

ng serve output:

This would be useful in order to support third party libraries that use this kind of imports like monaco-editor.

Vite already handles this when we run ng serve --prebundle=true and it works when a library uses this imports, but it does not work with ng build or ng serve --prebundle=false.
Also esbuild is able to handle the import (https://esbuild.github.io/content-types/#css-from-js) and generate a css bundle for all the css imports that it finds in a entry point, for example I can see it generating a main.css file:

However, the css bundle outputted to the ./dist/** folder it is never loaded onto the app.

Minimal Reproduction

ng new my-app
cd ./my-app

Create a *.css file called "import-styles.css"
Import the file above into the main.ts or other *.ts file of the app.

ng serve
