Reproduction

Not needed ( i dont think )

Describe the bug

nuxi commands always use the default .env file even if the --dotenv arg is specified

Additional context

I think the right spot for the fix is @nuxt/config-edge src/load.js loadNuxtConfig

With nuxi the incoming env config has the following pattern:

{
  cwd: 'C:/code/Tempest/flexdeploy',        
  fileName: 'production.env'
}

which is the spread here:

envConfig = {
    dotenv: ".env",
    env: process.env,
    expand: true,
    ...envConfig
  };

Just changing to dotenv: envConfig.fileName ?? ".env" does the trick

Logs

No response

I can submit a PR for this as long as this seems like the right spot

The --dotenv flag is working in the latest version, so this issue is closed.
