Add support for extra proxies via external file

Allows defining custom reverse proxy routes via an `extra-proxies.js`
file at the project root. The Gateway loads these configurations on
startup.

Additionally, the Nginx gateway manager no longer applies default
prefix-stripping rewrites. Explicit `pathRewrite` rules are now
required if prefix stripping is needed for any proxied service,
including those defined externally.
