Steps to reproduce

1. Check out the following repository: https://github.com/mmarczell-graphisoft/forgebug
2. npm install
3. npx gulp buildMac (or buildWin)
4. open ./out/forgebug-darwin-arm64/forgebug.app (or \out\forgebug-darwin-arm64\forgebug.exe)

Additional information

It seems the algorithm that electron-forge uses to determine which node_modules get included in app.asar does not work well in this case. If I unpack the asar, the node_modules/@opentelemetry/instrumentation folder does not exist in it.

Some additional information to provide a better overview of the specific issue. The only difference between this app and a blank Electron template is two twings:

1. The main process code is built with tsc
2. There is a dependency on @sentry/electron which is invoked in the main process.

Currently using @sentry/electron in some of the Forge apps I maintain, but I think we might be a few major versions behind. Let me upgrade and see if I can repro as well. 🤔
