Cannot run the payload bin scripts (generate:importmap) with turborepo

[Angusross111]

Describe the Bug

The payload bin scripts dont seem to play nice with turborepo packages when used in the configs:

// apps/docs/collections/Users.ts
import { verify } from "@repo/auth/auth";
...
access: {
        read: () => {
            const test = verify();
            return test;
        },
    },

$ payload generate:importmap
/home/angus.ross/external/turborepo-payload-repro/apps/docs/collections/Users.ts:1
import { verify } from "@repo/auth/auth";
         ^

SyntaxError: The requested module '@repo/auth/auth' does not provide an export named 'verify'

This is with

bun: 1.3.0
next: 16.0.1
payload: 3.62.1

I also tried hoisted installs but got the same error

bun install --linker hoisted

I ran into this issue when I had a shared package that I wanted to use in my Payload Collection code.

I solved it by adding "type": "module" to the Turborepo package's package.json config.
