Allow hot file host to be configured

[nurdism]

In my dev container solution I am running the whole thing behind a reverse proxy and proxying /@vite*, /node_modules* & /resources* to the running vite instance. I've been running into is not being able to force this plugin to either not specify a host or to force it to use a host. This option is optional and allows you to specify a host rather than attempting to figure it out.

Hi @nurdism,

Thanks for the PR.

You can completely control the hot file by specifying the server configuration. The following shows you how to control the protocol, host, and port that ends up in the hot file.

import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [
        laravel({
            input: ['resources/css/app.css', 'resources/js/app.js'],
            refresh: true,
        }),
    ],
    server: {
        https: true,
        host: 'foo.test',
        port: '8080',
    }
});

I understand that you may have got this sorted and are looking to make it easier, however I personally would prefer to not add another way to control this - at least for now.

Thanks again.
