Description
Describe the problem
In certain situations it makes sense to externalise inline scripts and styles for CSP purposes (e.g. when building Chrome extensions).
Describe the proposed solution
This only really applies to prerendered pages (there's basically no good way to externalise a dynamically rendered script), so I propose the following interface:
// svelte.config.js
export default {
kit: {
prerender: {
externalise: true
}
}
};
This would override the inlineStyleThreshold option. (If externalise isn't descriptive enough, we can bikeshed this.)
This would write out an inline script to the filesystem for each prerendered page, under the appDir (so the script can be cached immutably).

Research direction
The issue does not name files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the prerendering implementation and the handling of inline scripts and styles, then assess the proposed prerender.externalise option and its interaction with inlineStyleThreshold. Done means prerendered pages use external files under appDir while dynamically rendered scripts remain unaffected.
