+ * Patches the data-vite-dev-id attribute for style tags of virtual modules
+ *
+ * Per Vite's convention, virtual module ids are prefixed with \0 (null byte):
+ * https://vite.dev/guide/api-plugin#virtual-modules-convention
+ *
+ * However this null byte cannot be server rendered properly.
+ * Vite client runtime then fails to find style's with wrong null bytes,
+ * and instead inserts duplicate style's.
+ *
+ * This patch replaces the serializable /@id/__x00__ with the proper null byte,
+ * and has to run before Vite's client runtime:
+ * https://github.com/vitejs/vite/blob/130e7181a55c524383c63bbfb1749d0ff7185cad/packages/vite/src/client/client.ts#L529
