I18n-module: nuxt-i18n does not generate a file named index.html for non default locales

Reproduction link

N/A

Steps to reproduce

This is my nuxt-i18n config:

['nuxt-i18n', {
      locales: [
        { code: 'en', iso: 'en-US', name: 'English', file: 'en-US.js' },
        { code: 'ja', iso: 'ja', name: '日本人', file: 'ja.js' }
      ],
      defaultLocale: 'en',
      lazy: true,
      langDir: 'locale/',
      seo: false
    }]

run nuxt generate
look in the /dist folder under non-default locale
the file that should be index.html is called .html (no name for the file)

What is expected ?

nuxt-i18n needs to generate a file named index.html for each locale, just like it does for the default locale.

What is actually happening?

nuxt-i18n generates a file named .html and not index.html, which interferes with site hosting like Netlify which expect a file with that name.

Additional comments?

Is that the expected behavior or am I experiencing a bug?

I currently solved the issue by running a small renaming script after running nuxt generate:

fix-index-locales.js

const nuxtConfig = require('../nuxt.config');
var fs = require('fs');

let nuxtI18nConfig = nuxtConfig.modules.find(m => m[0] === 'nuxt-i18n')[1];

nuxtI18nConfig.locales.filter(l => l.code !== nuxtI18nConfig.defaultLocale).forEach(locale => {
  fs.rename(`./dist/${locale.code}/.html`, `./dist/${locale.code}/index.html`, function (err) {
    if (err) console.log('ERROR: ' + err);
  });
});

package.json

"scripts": {
    "generate": "nuxt generate && node ./build-utils/fix-index-locales.js"
}

Hopefully it will help people who have the same issue..
