allow the import of ts where ts is allowed.

test: imports ts on bun and test catch error in npm

feat(TemplateProcessor): add support for importing TypeScript files

fix(TemplateProcessor): handle TypeScript imports with error handling

test(TemplateProcessor): add tests for importing JavaScript and TypeScript files

Add support for importing TypeScript files in environments that support it,
and provide error handling for environments that do not. Add tests to
verify the functionality of importing both JavaScript and TypeScript files.
