Selectively disable redirects to prefixless for default locale routes with prefix_and_default strategy

[eatyrghost]

Problem
We are using the prefix_and_default strategy with a default locale set to en-us.

If we visit a route with the default locale as the prefix, e.g. /en-us/about-us, we are redirected to the prefixless route, /about-us. This is acceptable for most of our pages.

In a handful of cases, we don't want to redirect - we want to specifically use the /en-us prefix.

Desired Solution
There might be two ways we could configure this.

1. A new property on the page component:

export default {
    disableDefaultRedirect: true
};

2. A configuration that accepts a boolean or an array of prefixless paths:

// Applies to all routes
i18n: {
    disableDefaultRedirect: true
}

// Applies to /about-us and /products only
i18n: {
    disableDefaultRedirect: [
        '/about-us',
        '/products'
    ]
}
