chore(clerk-react,vue,nextjs): Introduce <RedirectToTask /> component

[LauraBeatris]

Description

Introduce a <RedirectToTask /> component to be used on root /{signInUrl}/tasks pages.

If an app, using auth.protect() has a custom sign-in page (not using <SignIn />), it must create a pge for the /tasks route in which auth.protect() redirects to on pending session status.

On that page, it should redirect to where tasks are resolved with <RedirectToTask /> - it'll either use taskUrls or default to the Clerk.signInUrl

// app/layout.tsx 
<ClerkProvider taskUrls={{ 'select-organization': '/onboarding/select-organization' }} />

clerkMiddleware((..) => if (isProtectedPage) auth.protect())

// app/sign-in/tasks/page.tsx
function SignInTasks() { 
  return <RedirectToTask /> 
}

---

Caveats:

It's not possible to customize the /tasks path atm. We'll cover that use case on the next iteration.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

A new component named <RedirectToTask /> was introduced to the @clerk/nextjs, @clerk/clerk-react, and @clerk/vue packages. The React version uses the withClerk HOC to access the Clerk session and runs an effect on mount that redirects unauthenticated users to the sign-in page or navigates authenticated users to a task if available via an internal Clerk method. The Vue version uses useClerkContext and useClerkLoaded hooks to perform similar logic once Clerk is loaded. The component renders nothing and was added alongside existing redirect components. Corresponding exports were added to relevant modules in each package.

commit: dbe6b31

[panteliselef]

How come we don't add something to auth.protect() similar the unauthenticatedUrl that we offer ? Feels weird that we need to redirect to the signInUrl only to be redirected somewhere else.

[LauraBeatris]

I've talked with @panteliselef about this comment

There's still room for improvement on the DX for the tasks resolution page. We could provide a component that would play nicely with a catchall route:

<ClerkProvider taskUrls={{ root: '/onboarding', 'select-organization': '/onboarding/select-organization' }} />

// app/onboarding/page.tsx
export default function OnboardingPage(){ 
  return <PendingTask />
}

I'll think more about this flow later. Will merge this PR for now to unblock the after-auth release and update the docs with it.
