Describe the bug

I am unable to run mesh dev or mesh start on any build.

The result of either command creates this output:

[2024-08-27T13:09:38.485Z] ERROR 🕸️  Mesh /Users/path/to/project/src/graphql/modules/data-source-a/file.ts

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

You will need the following components to test this:

• at least one configured mesh data source.
• extend type <some type build from that data source>
• run mesh dev or try to run in prod mode mesh build && mesh start

Expected behavior

Expect to properly load GraphQL schema files from .graphql files, which unfortunately doesn't happen. Mesh appears to treat the file as a typescript file because the module system doesn't recognize the import as a non-TS(JS) file.

Environment:

• OS: Sonoma 14.6.1 (23G93 - Apple Silion M1)
• @graphql-mesh/0.95.2:
• NodeJS: 20.17

Additional context

It's worth mentioning that this is also happening in integration environments that we have to run E2E tests as well.
