…est delegate (#42458)

* Allow file middlewares to run if there's an endpoint with a null request delegate #42413

* Ensure EndpointMiddleware checks AuthZ/CORS metadata even if endpoint.RequestDelegate is null

* Update null equality check to use "is"

* Added tests for StaticFileMiddleware changes

* Add tests for DefaultFiles/DirectoryBrowser middleware

* Add endpoint middleware test
