/**
* Filters the way that speculation rules are configured.
*
* The Speculation Rules API is a web API that allows to automatically prefetch or prerender certain URLs on the
* page, which can lead to near-instant page load times. This is also referred to as speculative loading.
*
* There are two aspects to the configuration:
* * The "mode" (whether to "prefetch" or "prerender" URLs).
* * The "eagerness" (whether to speculatively load URLs in an "eager", "moderate", or "conservative" way).
*
* By default, the speculation rules configuration is decided by WordPress Core ("auto"). This filter can be used
* to force a certain configuration, which could for instance load URLs more or less eagerly.
*
* For logged-in users or for sites that are not configured to use pretty permalinks, the default value is `null`,
* indicating that speculative loading is entirely disabled.
*
* @since 6.8.0
* @see https://developer.chrome.com/docs/web-platform/prerender-pages
*
* @param array<string, string>|null $config Associative array with 'mode' and 'eagerness' keys, or `null`. The
* default value for both of the keys is 'auto'. Other possible values
* for 'mode' are 'prefetch' and 'prerender'. Other possible values for
* 'eagerness' are 'eager', 'moderate', and 'conservative'. The value
* `null` is used to disable speculative loading entirely.
