Describe the bug

When configuring a custom base path in Vite along with TanStack Router's basepath, the prerenderer still attempts to crawl from / instead of the configured base path, resulting in a "Failed to fetch /: Not Found" error during build.

Steps to Reproduce the Bug or Issue

1. Configure a custom base path in vite.config.ts:

const BASEPATH = '/gitlab/34e28e1e78c44601b0974c2097b85a27/caelum-doc-dist/';

export default defineConfig({
  base: BASEPATH,
  define: {
    BASEPATH: JSON.stringify(BASEPATH),
  },
  plugins: [
    tanstackStart({
      spa: {
        enabled: true,
        prerender: {
          outputPath: 'index.html',
          enabled: true,
          crawlLinks: false,
        },
      },
      pages: [
        { path: `/docs` },
        { path: `/api/search` },
      ],
    }),
  ],
});

2. Configure router with basepath in router.tsx:

export function getRouter() {
  return createTanStackRouter({
    routeTree,
    basepath: BASEPATH,
    // ... other options
  });
}

3. Run vite build

Build fails during prerender phase with:

[prerender] Crawling: /
error: Failed to fetch /: Not Found
  at <anonymous> (/node_modules/@tanstack/start-plugin-core/dist/esm/prerender.js:126:23)

Expected behavior

The prerenderer should respect the configured base path and attempt to fetch from /gitlab/34e28e1e78c44601b0974c2097b85a27/caelum-doc-dist/ instead of /.
