## What’s in there?
This PR brings more consistency in how errors and warnings are reported when running code in the Edge Runtime:
- Dynamic code evaluation (`eval()`, `new Function()`, `WebAssembly.instantiate()`, `WebAssembly.compile()`…)
- Usage of Node.js global APIs (`BroadcastChannel`, `Buffer`, `TextDecoderStream`, `setImmediate()`...)
- Usage of Node.js modules (`fs`, `path`, `child_process`…)
The new error messages should mention *Edge Runtime* instead of *Middleware*, so they are valid in both cases.
It also fixes a bug where the process polyfill would issue a warning for `process.cwd` (which is `undefined` but legit). Now, one has to invoke the function `process.cwd()` to trigger the error.
It finally fixes the react-dev-overlay, where links from middleware and Edge API route files could not be opened because of the `(middleware)/` prefix in their name.
About the later, please note that we can’t easily remove the prefix or change it for Edge API routes. It comes from the Webpack layer, which is the same for both. We may consider renaming it to *edge* instead in the future.
## How to test?
These changes are almost fully covered with tests:
```bash
pnpm testheadless --testPathPattern runtime-dynamic
pnpm testheadless --testPathPattern runtime-with-node
pnpm testheadless --testPathPattern runtime-module
pnpm testheadless --testPathPattern middleware-dev-errors
```
To try them out manually, you can write a middleware and Edge route files like these:
```jsx
// middleware.js
import { NextResponse } from 'next/server'
import { basename } from 'path'
export default async function middleware() {
eval('2+2')
setImmediate(() => {})
basename()
return NextResponse.next()
}
export const config = { matcher: '/' }
```
```jsx
// pages/api/route.js
import { basename } from 'path'
export default async function handle() {
eval('2+2')
setImmediate(() => {})
basename()
return Response.json({ ok: true })
}
export const config = { runtime: 'experimental-edge' }
```
The expected behaviours are:
- [x] dev, middleware/edge route is using a node.js module: error at runtime (logs + read-dev-overlay):
```bash
error - (middleware)/pages/api/route.js (1:0) @ Object.handle [as handler]
error - The edge runtime does not support Node.js 'path' module.

```
- [x] build, middleware/edge route is using a node.js module: warning but succeeds
```bash

## Notes to reviewers
Edge-related errors are either issued from `next/server/web/sandbox/context.ts` file (runtime errors) or from `next/build/webpack/plugins/middleware-plugin.ts` (webpack compilation).
The previous implementation (I’m pleading guilty here) was way too verbose: some errors (Node.js global APIs like using `process.cwd()`) could be reported several times, and the previous mechanism to dedupe them (in middleware-plugin) wasn’t really effective.
Changes in tests are due to renaming existing tests such as `test/integration/middleware-with-node.js-apis` into `test/integration/edge-runtime-with-node.js-apis`. I extended them to cover Edge API route.
@hanneslund I’ve pushed the improvement you did in https://github.com/vercel/next.js/pull/38289/ one step further to avoid duplication.
