Optimize Next.js bootup compilation (#50379)
## What?
Currently we use the initial compile to add entrypoints that we know are
going to be used in the application. For example the Next.js runtime,
`react`, `react-dom`, and such. While this was the right default when
Next.js only had `pages`, it's no longer true when both `pages` and
`app` exist. E.g. when you're working on a page using App Router we'd
still compile `pages/_app`, `pages/_document`, and `pages/_error` even
though those would not be used. In case of larger applications (e.g.
Vercel's application) this would mean thousands of extra modules being
compiled even though you don't need them for the page you're looking at.
Similarly we'd compile the Next.js runtime for App Router even when
you're only using `pages`.
This PR changes the handling to only compile the entries that are needed
for the current set of visited pages (on-demand-entries). If that set
only includes `app` entrypoints then the `pages` related files will be
excluded. If the set contains both `app` and `pages` both will be
included. Similarly for `amp`, if you don't use `amp: true` / `amp:
hybrid` the development runtime will not be compiled.
📔 Note: This is specifically for webpack, Turbopack already compiles
everything needed lazily so it didn't have this limitation.
#### Before
```
- event compiled client and server successfully in 1079 ms (306 modules)
- event compiled client and server successfully in 155 ms (306 modules)
```
With opening `/`:
```
- event compiled client and server successfully in 1118 ms (306 modules)
- event compiled client and server successfully in 157 ms (306 modules)
- event compiled client and server successfully in 599 ms (486 modules)
```
Total: 1.874ms (Note: This number is much higher when `pages/_app`
imports many modules).
#### After
```
- event compiled client and server successfully in 118 ms (20 modules)
- event compiled client and server successfully in 65 ms (20 modules)
```
📔 Note: opening the page then causes the Next.js / React runtime to be
compiled ofcourse
```
- event compiled client and server successfully in 115 ms (20 modules)
- event compiled client and server successfully in 57 ms (20 modules)
- event compiled client and server successfully in 1137 ms (361 modules)
```
Total: 1.309ms (Note: This number is not affected by`pages/_app`
importing many modules).
## How?
We can only apply this optimization after we've looped over the list of
on-demand entries, as that has the required metadata. Hence why I went
with deleting the keys for each respective type of entrypoint (`pages`,
`app`, `amp`).
