As discussed we are removing the deprecated field from `revalidateTag`
and `revalidatePath` as they aren't going away anytime soon and the new
`expire` APIs will have slightly different semantics so not a 1-1 rename
with no arguments change anymore. We are also adding the `unstable_`
prefix for `expireTag`/`expirePath` while we iterate on them so it's
clear they will change.

This adds `expireTag()` and `expirePath` APIs which are replacing
`revalidateTag` and `revalidatePath`. As such this also marks
`revalidatePath` and `revalidateTag` as deprecated and marked for
removal.
The arguments passed to these methods match `revalidateTag` and
`revalidatePath` with the exception that `expireTag` can receive
multiple tags now as separate arguments which matches our new
`unstable_cacheTag()` API.
We are wanting to update these APIs as `revalidateTag` naming has caused
some confusion as to when the affected items will be updated. The
underlying behavior of `expireTag` is to mark an entry as out of date
and for it to no longer be used so we are expiring it.
If you call `expirePath('/blog/first'`) the next time that item is
requested it is considered expired so the cache will not be used for it
and a fresh entry will be generated. Similarly for `expireTag('posts',
'blog')` the next time any cache with that tag is requested it's
respective cache will not be leveraged and new cache will be populated.

## Background
Currently route handlers will be attempted to statically generate the
same as normal pages in app router. If a route handler accessed dynamic
data such as `cookies()`, `headers()`, `req.url`, or similar we would
bail from this static generation but this didn't handle the case where
you would do data fetching via a non-fetch based library e.g. `redis` or
even using `Date.now()` or `Math.random()` so users would expect these
to be run every request like normal API endpoints but they would be
static so wouldn't be executed again after a build.
## New Behavior
As discussed this disable the default static generation handling for
route handlers as we've seen this confuse our users since in most cases
when creating a route handler you are handling dynamic workloads. This
doesn't remove the ability to static generate route handlers though as
you can still manually specify:
If you specify `export const revalidate = 1` we will still bail if
dynamic data is accessed to prevent accidental `revalidate` configuring
but this can be avoided via `force-static` being used as well.
```js
export const dynamic = 'force-static'
// or
export const dynamic = 'error'
// or
export const revalidate = false
// or
export const revalidate = 1 // value great than 0
// or
export const generateStaticParams() {}
```
