Description
### Impacted plugin
Jetpack, Backup, Boost, Search
### What
WP Core just added options to handle resource preloading. This may be a good opportunity to review our usage of preloading and resource hints in Jetpack plugins.
### How
This was just added to WP Core, and will ship with the upcoming version of WordPress, v. 6.1, in November 2022:
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/53846
It would be nice if we added support for it in our plugins.
