[Feature]: Is is better to use __webpack_public_path__ for search index url?

[liuwenzhuang]

What problem does this feature solve?

My site static files is deploy to oss, and html files is render from a node.js server, so my config is like:

builderConfig: {
    output: {
      assetPrefix: `{{STATIC_PATH}}/`,
    }
}

and node.js server will replace {{STATIC_PATH}} placeholder to oss url when render, and I override __webpack_public_path__ to ensure dynamic files path is correct.

After deploy, the page's resource is ok, but the search json file's request url is like http://mysite.com/{{STATIC_PATH}}/static/search_index.json, not prefix with __webpack_public_path__.

What does the proposed API look like?

Maybe the __webpack_public_path__ prefix or assetPrefix prefix to search index url could be config?

@Timeless0911 __webpack_public_path__ can be overriden in the runtime code.
