test(playground): skip default-locale switch tests on Next.js 16.3 preview

Next.js 16.3 preview no longer follows the proxy (middleware) redirect
during client-side soft navigation. next-intl force-prefixes locale
switch links (`<Link href="/" locale="en">` renders `/en`) and relies on
the proxy to redirect `/en` -> `/` for the default locale in `as-needed`
mode. Hard requests still 307-redirect correctly, but soft navigations
keep the prefixed URL, so three playground e2e assertions fail.

Skip the affected tests with a tracking note until this is resolved in a
stable Next.js release, so the rest of the 16.3 upgrade can be exercised.
