Thank you for working on the React implementation for Rspack, we are excited to use it in our company stack. Yet, we have faced a challenge regarding the React Fast Refresh instrumentation. The problem is that, along with React jsx, we use a custom in-house rendering runtime with `/** @jsxImportSource custom-jsx */` pragma. Unfortunately, while Fast Refresh does work for the React components, for such custom runtime components the HMR is completely broken. As a workaround, engineers disable RFR and fall back to HMR. I want to improve the experience for the product teams and found out that I can write my own react-refresh loader, which is 99% the same as `builtin:react-refresh-loader` but can handle the case with a custom jsx runtime. This seems to work just fine. And now we are missing a way to override the default builtin:react-refresh-loader. Hence, this PR adds a plugin option that allows specifying a custom react-refresh loader for those who want to have a more advanced RFR implementation
