cloud.Api catch-all route handler

[Chriscbr]

Feature Spec

A preflight API for running inflight code that should run on all uncaught routes of a cloud.Api:

bring cloud;

let api = new cloud.Api();

api.get("/users/*", inflight (req) => { /* ... */ });
api.get("*", inflight (req) => { /* ... */ });

Since req: cloud.ApiRequest includes path as a field, the inflight function can perform custom logic based on the actual route the user passed.

Related to #3973, #1848

Use Cases

Specifying custom responses for when a request doesn't match any of the other routes you've specified on your cloud.Api.

This kind of capability is available in other frameworks like Express.js using the "*" syntax (see examples here) and SST using the "{proxy+}" path variable (docs).
