Add middleware prefetching config (#42936)

This adds a new `experimental.middlewarePrefetch` config with two modes with the default being the `flexible` config. - `strict` only prefetches when the `href` explicitly matches an SSG route (won't prefetch for middleware rewrite usage unless manual `href`/`as` values are used) - `flexible` always prefetches ensuring middleware rewrite usage is handled and also prevents executing SSR routes during prefetch to avoid unexpected invocations x-ref: #39920 x-ref: [slack thread](https://vercel.slack.com/archives/C047HMFN58X/p1668473101696689?thread_ts=1667856323.709179&cid=C047HMFN58X) ## Bug - [ ] Related issues linked using `fixes #number` - [ ] Integration tests added - [ ] Errors have a helpful link attached, see `contributing.md` ## Feature - [ ] Implements an existing feature request or RFC. Make sure the feature request has been accepted for implementation before opening a PR. - [ ] Related issues linked using `fixes #number` - [ ] Integration tests added - [ ] Documentation added - [ ] Telemetry added. In case of a feature if it's used or not. - [ ] Errors have a helpful link attached, see `contributing.md` ## Documentation / Examples - [ ] Make sure the linting passes by running `pnpm build && pnpm lint` - [ ] The "examples guidelines" are followed from [our contributing doc](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/blob/canary/contributing/examples/adding-examples.md)
