(Bug?) Outdir adds "baseUrl" to directory structure as of V0.3.0 about cli

If it is intended behavior it does deviate from tsc. This could cause issues for people. For instance: When one wants to generate type definitions (.d.ts files). This is not yet supported in SWC.

The above-mentioned issue was actually our exact case, the new types were able to be imported from our packages as expected but the .js files were still outdated. (see following command example).

e.g.

npx tsc --declaration --emitDeclarationOnly && npx swc --config-file .swcrc ./src -d dist

Would place the compiled .js files in /dist/src/ and the corresponding type definitions in /dist/.

Breaking changes such as this come as kind of a surprise and lead to strange behavior after an update of NPM packages. In addition there is little communication about the breaking change which then turns it into a bit of a "needle-in-a-haystack" situation. Would love to brainstorm and help out on this point if you're on board with that 👍

Thanks for taking the time reading my ramblings, much appreciated ☺️

See #281

Closing as fixed by #283.
You can use --strip-leading-paths to get the old behavior.
