- Enable newNextLinkBehavior. See #36436
- Run next/link codemod on test suite
Note that from when this lands on apps trying canary will need to run
the new-link codemod in order to upgrade.
Ideally we have to detect `<a>` while rendering the new link and warn
for it.

This PR removes the modern mode experiment because:
- It does not yield meaningful bundle size wins when compared to other initiatives we've taken
- It's not compatible with webpack 5 (which we're upgrading to)
- It's currently broken and causes most apps to malfunction
- There's no champion currently owning the experiment
We can re-introduce this in the future when we'd like to make it a default for all Next.js apps.
Note: **Next.js still supports Differential Loading (`nomodule`) and does it by default.** This PR strictly removes the experimental modern _syntax_, and does not disable our existing modern/legacy polyfilling.
