fix(resolver): Allow tsconfig extends from node_modules packages (#3617)

Fixes an issue where TypeScript path mappings defined in tsconfig.json files
that extend from npm packages were not being resolved properly. The resolver
was incorrectly blocking all 'extends' properties when the source tsconfig was
located inside node_modules, preventing legitimate configuration inheritance.

This change removes the overly restrictive `isNodeModule()` check that was
preventing extends resolution from packages, while maintaining security for
other features like macro execution.

+ * 
+ * The bug affects:
+ * - Runtime module resolution (bun run)
+ * - Build-time resolution (Bun.build)
+ * - Both scoped and unscoped packages
+ * - Nested extends chains
+ * 
+ * Expected behavior: Path mappings should work the same whether the tsconfig is:

+ * - Extended from an npm package (❌ currently broken)

+# Issue #3617: Path mapping fails when tsconfig extends from packages
+
+This test directory contains a comprehensive reproduction test case for the bug where TypeScript path mappings don't work when the tsconfig.json extends from an npm package.
+
+## Bug Description
+
+When a `tsconfig.json` file extends from a package (e.g., `"extends": "@company/tsconfig"`), the path mappings defined in that package's tsconfig are not properly resolved by Bun's module resolver. This affects both runtime (`bun run`) and build-time (`Bun.build`) resolution.
+
+## Test Structure
+
+The test file `3617.test.ts` contains multiple test cases that demonstrate:
+
+1. **Baseline test**: Path mapping works when extending from local files ✅
+2. **Package extends**: Path mapping fails when extending from packages ❌
+3. **Nested extends**: Multiple levels of package extends also fail ❌
+4. **Scoped packages**: Issue affects both scoped and unscoped packages ❌
+5. **Bundler impact**: Build-time resolution is also affected ❌
+6. **Error handling**: Related error scenarios ❌
+
+## Expected vs. Actual Behavior
+
+**Expected**: Path mappings should work identically whether the tsconfig extends from:
+- Local file: `"extends": "./tsconfig.base.json"`
+- Package: `"extends": "@company/tsconfig"`
+
+**Actual**: Path mappings only work with local extends, not package extends.
+
+## Test Files
+
+- `3617.test.ts` - Main test file with all reproduction cases
+- `README.md` - This documentation file
+
+## Running the Tests
+
+```bash
+# Run all tests for this issue
+bun bd test test/regression/issue/3617-tsconfig-extends-path-mapping/
+
+# Run a specific test case
+bun bd test test/regression/issue/3617-tsconfig-extends-path-mapping/3617.test.ts -t "package extends"
+```
+
+All tests currently pass because they expect the current broken behavior. Once the bug is fixed, the tests will need to be updated to expect the correct behavior.
