[Plugin Request] CLI program in separate file

[filips123]

Can you make a plugin for CLI programs that are in separate files (not like @pika/plugin-simple-bin which only adds wrapper)?

So, in the source package directory, there would default index.js and arbitrary file for CLI program (like console.js). That file would then import Something from './index.js' and use Something in CLI. In the source package.json, there should be pipeline like ["@pika/plugin-simple-bin", {"entrypoints": {"my-cli": "src/console.js", "my-cli-2": "src/console2.js"}].

This would build all console files to Node.js format and add them to bin section of package.json.

1. Copy and build all console files for Node.js
2. Maybe add v8-compile-cache
3. Add files to bin of package.json

For sure! If there's enough interest this could make sense as an official plugin, or at the very least it sounds like a good opportunity for a community-created plugin.

@FredKSchott It should probably be an official plugin. Maybe this could just be the addition in existing @pika/plugin-simple-bin.
