request route with param and folder in static with same name returns error on dev mode

[CordlessWool]

Describe the bug

In the project, I have a route and a folder in static with the same name (images). Loading images/someimage.jpg working well, but accessing just images?somepaream produce an error.

Failed to load url /images?load=%2Fimages%2Fteaser.jpg (resolved id: /images?load=%2Fimages%2Fteaser.jpg). This file is in /public and will be copied as-is during build without going through the plugin transforms, and therefore should not be imported from source code. It can only be referenced via HTML tags.

Seems relating to #5672 but in a more special way.
After build there is no problem, only in dev mode I get this error.

It would be helpful to know if this happens with a plain Vite project or only with SvelteKit: https://github.com/sveltejs/kit#bug-reporting

What I currently know is that it didn't happen with a version of sveltekit before 39x. I do not have the exact version in mind.

I tried to rebuild it with vite vanilla, but I never did a project with vite beside svelte kit so I am not sure if I test it correctly, but I didn't get an error.

I created a project with npm create vite-extra@latest -- --template ssr-svelte

Afterwards I added a route in server.js for GET requests on /images and I created a folder images in public. It toke the server route and didn't throw an error. So for me it looks like everything is ok in vite.

I'm pretty sure this is a Vite issue - our code correctly determines that this is not a static asset since it's a directory, then calls the next middleware which happens to be Vite's which then throws the error.
