Asset encoding in the data URI (Static Asset Handling) does not correctly indicate the type and cannot be disabled (assetsInlineLimit)

Describe the bug

I'm trying to configure the svg favicon of an application, and that's where I realized that vitejs converts files less than the set assetsInlineLimit bytes to URI data in base64, I ran into 2 situations:

1. With Static Asset Handling activated, the encoding of the .svg file to data URI is transformed from 'image/svg+xml' to 'image/png', replacing 'png' with 'svg+xml' manually everything worked fine.

Unable to find a solution or explanation to this, try disabling Static Asset Handling with assetsInlineLimit set to 0 as the documentation dictates (https://vitejs.dev/config/build-options#build-assetsinlinelimit)

2. The build was still encoding the import, no matter what value you set assetsInlineLimit to.

I can't reproduce it with your reproduction and this is not a vite-plugin-vue problem either. It should be a vite problem and maybe it has been fixed.
