astro dev works as expected. Adding sharp as a direct dependency resolves it for now, but I don't believe it should be necessary in 3.0.

What's the expected result?

Assets feature should work with Sharp (new default) without adding as a direct dependency.
At least that's how I understand #7908 and withastro/docs#3756 (comment)

What should I do?
For 99.999% of people, nothing! This change is invisible.
