Fixes #17679

Kit interpolates native absolute route directory paths into Vite's glob-based dependency scanner. On Windows, backslashes are interpreted as escapes rather than separators, so no routes are scanned and route-only dependencies are discovered lazily.

Route entries were introduced in #12182 to eagerly discover dependencies from configurable route files. #12242 added the server-file exclusion. Although #17247 removed the obsolete build-input workaround, explicit route scanning remains necessary for Kit's non-HTML-entry development setup.

Normalize the directory prefix in both the positive and negative patterns using the existing posixify helper. Keeping the conversion at the glob boundary leaves native filesystem paths elsewhere unchanged and preserves absolute custom route locations, the existing filename patterns, server-only exclusions, and user-entry merging. Globally normalizing configuration paths or switching to root-relative entries would broaden the change unnecessarily.

The regression exercises Windows separators on any platform and isolates its generated manifest from the running test app.

optimizeDeps.entries added by the Vite plugin match no files on Windows (backslashes in glob), so routes are never pre-scanned
