This PR tries to fix a quite unexpected behaviour.
That is, when i18n is not configured in next.config, the server returns custom headers specified in next.config in the response for static assets (/_next/static). Whereas the server returns no custom headers when i18n is configured.
This inconsistency is especially an issue when the missing headers are security related.
Another related issue is: without i18n, the server respects the cache-control header in next.config somehow for static assets and does not overwrite it as mentioned here in https://nextjs.org/docs/pages/building-your-application/deploying/production-checklist#caching. With i18n, the cache-control header is indeed overwritten.
These inconsistencies seem to spread over dev, start and standalone mode.
