Describe the bug

If you use navigateTo on a (nuxt) page that is prerendered, the prerendering fails as the status code is 302 and not 200:

Prerendering 4 initial routes with crawler                        nitro 20:02:29
  ├─ ....
  ├─ /download (208ms) (Error: [302] )                               nitro 20:02:31
                                                                     nitro 20:02:31  
Errors prerendering:
  ├─ /download (302)

Additional context

This error comes from the check

nitro/src/prerender.ts

Lines 171 to 176 in 6bc50b2

	if (res.status !== 200) {
	_route.error = new Error(`[${res.status}] ${res.statusText}`) as any;
	_route.error.statusCode = res.status;
	_route.error.statusMessage = res.statusText;
	erroredRoutes.add(_route);
	}

.

If one adds res.status !== 302 it works well. I can open a PR with this fix, but I'm not sure if there are any negative consequences or if there is a better way to handle prerenders of redirects.

I also get the same behaviour with Nitro 2.5.2 (Nuxt 3.6.2), that I didn't get with Nitro 2.5.1 (Nuxt 3.6.1), but because of redirect in the routeRules of nuxt.config.ts

  routeRules: {
    '/': {redirect: '/search'}
  },

I get this error:

...
Generated public .output/public

   ├─ / (11ms) (Error: [307] )
   ├─ /200.html (48ms)
   ├─ /404.html (48ms)
 
Errors prerendering:
   ├─ / (307)

The 307 Temporary Redirect is interpreted as an error.

I suppose that all 3xx redirection status codes could be allowed.

Bumping this as currently any kind of redirect in a route completely blocks pre-rendering completely
