checker clears terminal on first load

[gkiely]

Describe the bug

When enabling the checker plugin it clears the terminal, hiding the vite serve information.

Reproduction

import { defineConfig } from 'vite';

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    checker({
      typescript: true,
    }),
  ],
});

Expected behavior

Should not clear the terminal

More to that, when there's an error and I save the file twice terminal clears

How to reproduce:

• add any typescript error to the code (e.g. reassign a constant const error = 'test'; error = 123;)
• save twice w/o changing anything

Also, very often terminal just gets cleared and becomes fully blank even though changes were made

This terminal bug makes the plugin almost entirely unusable and is the only reason why I use tsc over it

@fi3ework could you take a look?

You can add clearScreen: false, to your Vite config. This should probably be in the docs...

@cuberoot I still want vite to clear the screen, I just want to avoid this plugin from doing it a second time and moving the ts/eslint info out of the terminal.
