Issue with Trailing Slashes in URLs Preventing Middleware Execution in Astro

[rajpatel2435]

Hello @tordans @altano @madbook

Astro Info

Astro                    v4.5.2
Node                     v20.9.0
System                   Windows (x64)
Package Manager          npm
Output                   server
Adapter                  @astrojs/node
Integrations             @astrojs/tailwind

If this issue only occurs in one browser, which browser is a problem?

All Browser

Describe the Bug

When accessing URLs with multiple trailing slashes, such as:

https://vegasaces.com/games/slots/lucky-dama-muerta//////////
The URL is automatically normalized in the backend to:

/games/slots/lucky-dama-muerta/

However, this normalization seems to bypass middleware logic. As a result, middleware doesn't execute as expected for the raw incoming URL.

Steps to Reproduce:

Create an Astro project with a middleware to log requests or process specific slugs.
Access a URL with multiple trailing slashes (e.g., //////////).
Observe that the middleware does not execute correctly for the normalized path.

What's the expected result?

Astro should identify and process URLs with multiple trailing slashes correctly, ensuring middleware functions execute as intended.

Current Behavior:
URLs with trailing slashes are normalized by Astro, but middleware logic does not handle the original raw URL, causing inconsistencies.
