cy.route() doesn't intercept calls during 303 redirect

[chris-perts]

Current behavior:

1. Set up a route stub with cy.route().
2. Test a page where an xhr gets redirected to the mocked route via a 303
3. The second xhr goes through and does not reach the stub

Desired behavior:

The stub should intercept the redirected xhr.

Steps to reproduce:

const weasleTheWoozle = {
  name: 'Weasle',
};

it.only('stubs 303', () => {
  cy.server();

  // Test against any page that makes this call.
  cy.route({
    method: 'POST',
    url: '/woozles',
    status: 303,
    headers: {
      Location: '/woozles/5',
    },
    response: '',
  });

  // Want to mock this:
  cy.route({
    method: 'GET',
    url: '/woozles/5',
    response: weasleTheWoozle,
  }).as('get');

  cy.visit('/');
  cy.wait(['@get']); // times out, stub does not intercept
});

Yes, this likely is a situation that's not being taken into account with stubbing routes. Thanks for opening this issue.
