fix(loaders): strip a BOM from a string result in the loader chain - #21857
Conversation
A loader whose tool prepends a BOM handed it straight to the next loader, where it is no longer at the start of a file and corrupts the content. convertArgs already dropped one when decoding a Buffer; do the same for a string, and before re-encoding one for a raw loader.

retain whether the original resource began with U+FEFF before calling
stringWithoutBOM, then restore that leading BOM when raw is true while
preserving the existing decoded-string behavior. Add a regression test covering
a processResource string with an initial BOM and verify raw loaders receive the
original BOM bytes, without restoring BOMs introduced later by loaders.

processResource may hand back a string (a virtual module's source, a data: url), and re-encoding it for a raw loader dropped its BOM where main kept it. Track whether args came from a loader and leave the resource's own BOM alone.

Comparing fix/loader-bom-strip (a419d60) with main (2a6a4fa)
A loader's source map rides in args[1] while convertArgs rewrites args[0], so stripping the BOM must not shift the mappings or drop the map. Asserts both, plus that the BOM stays out of sourcesContent.
The fixtures are checked out with CRLF on Windows, so asserting the exact bytes failed there on the trailing newline rather than on the BOM.
Summary
convertArgsalready dropped a leading BOM when decoding aBufferfor a loader, but not when a loader returned a string — so a loader whose tool prepends one (dart-sass does for non-ASCIIcompressedoutput, see webpack/sass-loader#1335) handed it straight to the next loader, where it is no longer at the start of a file and corrupts the module content. Only a BOM a loader produced is stripped; one belonging to the resource itself is left alone on every path, so a raw loader still sees the bytes it does today.What kind of change does this PR introduce?

Yes —
test/configCases/loaders/bom-between-loaders/(string and raw next-loader),test/configCases/source-map/bom-from-loader/(the map, itssourcesContentand its mapping columns survive the strip), and three cases intest/LoaderRunner.unittest.js, one of which pins that the resource's own BOM is preserved.Does this PR introduce a breaking change?
No.
