fix(cache): bypass shared lookup for force-dynamic routes

[james-elicx]

Summary

• classify explicit force-dynamic App pages, inherited layouts, parallel branches, and Route Handlers in the build-time request manifest
• route those requests around the shared response cache while preserving explicit public next.config cache policies
• add a Response Store demo route, a zero-store-invocation regression, and deployed coverage for Response Store, Workers Cache, and KV

Testing

• vp check
• vp test run tests/app-page-dispatch.test.ts tests/app-route-handler-policy.test.ts tests/app-rsc-handler.test.ts tests/app-worker-stages.test.ts tests/entry-templates.test.ts
• vp run @vinext/cloudflare#test

[P1] Include intercepting branches in force-dynamic classification\n\nThis scans the normal page/layout and parallel-slot branches, but it never scans route.siblingIntercepts or each slot’s interceptingRoutes (pagePath plus layoutPaths). If the canonical /photos/[id] page is static while an intercepting modal for that route exports dynamic = "force-dynamic", the generated route remains forceDynamic: false; an intercepted request therefore still consults the shared Response Store/Workers Cache before the runtime segment config can veto admission. Please classify the intercept branch as well (conservatively at route level, or carry branch-specific metadata) and cover that case.

Fixed in 5d8661c. The build-time classifier now includes each slot intercept and sibling intercept page plus its layout chain, with regression coverage for both shapes. This follows Next.js applying segment dynamic config while recursively constructing the selected branch: https://github.com/vercel/next.js/blob/c20c1d4125b5a3548207a17619837ae590fc187b/packages/next/src/server/app-render/create-component-tree.tsx#L303-L338
