feat: allow overriding matchPath function on Routes

[modi98]

This change allows users to override the base matchPath used by the Routes component. This will allow people to progressively migrate from the removal of validators and regex on paths that used to exist before v6.

This is a simple example of an implementation of a customMatchPath function (open to change the name) which could be further developed to use path-to-regexp or other library for path matching.

const customMatchPath = (pattern: PathPattern | string, pathname: string) => {
  if (pathname.length > 4) return matchPath(pattern, pathname);
  return null;
};

<BrowserRouter>
  <Routes
    customMatchPath={customMatchPath}
  >
    <Route path="/:slug" element={<>Hello</>} />
  </Routes>
</BrowserRouter>

Is it required to have all the bundles stay within the 5% range of current file size? I see it's failing because of a small bump on bundle size, which I'm not even sure could be removed.

I'm assuming the bundle size increades a few bytes through the added imports of ParamParseKey, PathMatch, and PathPattern.
