docs: Pages Router API routes

[kjartanhr]

This pull request adds documentation on how to use translations on the server (API routes) in the pages router.

It is not obvious from current documentation that getTranslations cannot be called from API routes and the error thrown ('getTranslations' is not supported in Client Components) does not indicate any solution, so this section is intended to (partially) close that gap.

I'm unsure if this behaviour is intentional anyway but my proposed documented solution is something I came across in the advanced pages router example, so I'm leaning towards interpereting this as intended behaviour.

Please let me know if there is a better place for this section (maybe a whole page under environments dedicated to the pages router?), as I merely appended it to the file where it seemed to fit best.

I also did not come across any style guide for documentation in your repository, so I apologise in advance if anything I wrote is not up to standard. I'm more than happy to receive feedback and iterate on it :)

@kjartanhr is attempting to deploy a commit to the next-intl Team on Vercel.

A member of the Team first needs to authorize it.

Hey, thanks for proposing this! I think it's a good point to mention this, but I'd considerably give this less prominence in the docs.

I think instead of a separate section, we could add a small expandable block in the route handlers section: "How can I use next-intl in API Routes with the Pages Router?" and link to the core library docs there.

I'd keep it really simple and as a brief explanation instead of coming up with alternative implementations like a synchronous getTranslations (which could be confusing in case you later migrate to the App Router).

Would you like to adjust your proposal?

[kjartanhr]

Hi again and thanks for the feedback!

I think that's a great way to approach it, I'll adjust my proposal later today and update this pull request with those changes.

Then we can take a look at those changes and see if they need any adjustment as well.

Did you by chance have a moment to think about this again @kjartanhr? See my feedback above.
