fix(nuxt): reach app tsconfig with server auto-import types

[HugoRCD]

Closes #435

Problem

Since 2.21.0, nuxt typecheck fails with TS2304: Cannot find name 'useLogger' (and log/createEvlogError) on server routes.

The types/evlog-server.d.ts type template was only registered on the nitro tsconfig context. That reaches .nuxt/tsconfig.server.json, but $fetch's return-type inference does typeof import('../../server/api/...'), which imports the server route modules directly and pulls their auto-imports into the app tsconfig project's typecheck as well — and that project never referenced the template.

Fix

Register the template on both the nitro and nuxt contexts of addTypeTemplate, so the reference also flows into nuxt.d.ts (included by tsconfig.app.json).

Verification

• Reproduced the bug locally in apps/playground: vue-tsc -p .nuxt/tsconfig.app.json failed with ~18 TS2304 errors before the fix, none after.
• Added a regression test (packages/evlog/test/nuxt/module-type-templates.test.ts) asserting the type template is registered with { nitro: true, nuxt: true } — verified it fails without the fix and passes with it.
• pnpm run test, pnpm run lint, pnpm run typecheck all pass across the monorepo (including evlog-playground:typecheck, which exercises this exact scenario).

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Fixed Nuxt typecheck failures on server routes caused by missing logging globals (e.g., useLogger / createEvlogError) in inferred route types.
  • Updated Nuxt module typing so server type definitions are available in both the app and server TypeScript contexts, while keeping server-only log scoped to the server project.
• Tests
  • Added a regression test suite to verify the correct registration of server/app and server-only type templates during Nuxt typecheck.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Nuxt module now registers types/evlog-server.d.ts in both Nitro and Nuxt TypeScript contexts. Regression tests verify declaration registration and log scoping, while a Changesets entry documents the patch release.

Changes

Nuxt typecheck fix

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Register server globals across Nuxt TypeScript contexts packages/evlog/src/nuxt/module.ts, .changeset/fix-nuxt-typecheck-server-globals.md	The server declaration template is registered with both nitro: true and nuxt: true; server-only log remains Nitro-scoped, and the patch changeset documents the fix.
Verify template registration packages/evlog/test/nuxt/module-type-templates.test.ts	Vitest tests verify registration contexts, useLogger and createEvlogError declarations, and separate server/client log declarations.

- Around line 494-499: Update the Nuxt type reference configuration in the
visible module setup to keep types/evlog-server.d.ts Nitro-only by removing its
nuxt: true inclusion, while preserving the existing nitro: true registration.
Ensure the app project continues to receive only types/evlog-client.d.ts so
global log and createEvlogError declarations are not duplicated.
