Stencil: Preamble config option doesn't work

[danschultz]

Stencil version:

 @stencil/[email protected]

I'm submitting a:

[x] bug report
[ ] feature request
[ ] support request => Please do not submit support requests here, use one of these channels: https://stencil-worldwide.herokuapp.com/ or https://forum.ionicframework.com/

Current behavior:
Specifying a preamble value in my Stencil config doesn't show up in my JS bundle.

Expected behavior:
The main JS bundle in ./dist should contain the preamble value set in Stencil's config.

Steps to reproduce:
Set the preamble in your stencil.config.ts file. Something like:

export const config: Config = {
  preamble: "Test preamble"
}

Run npm run build.
