Suggestion: Add built-in support for static site hosting in Wrangler

[fbwe425]

Description

Currently, hosting static sites on Cloudflare Workers requires either:

1. Using Cloudflare Pages (separate service)
2. Manual configuration with Workers Sites

It would be convenient to have a simpler way to deploy static sites directly from Wrangler.

Proposed Solution

wrangler deploy --static ./dist

This could automatically:

• Upload files to KV or R2
• Generate a worker script to serve the files
• Configure caching headers
• Set up proper routing

Benefits

• Simplified workflow for static sites
• Unified CLI experience
• Better integration with existing build tools
• Lower barrier to entry for new users

Use Case

Many developers build static sites with tools like Vite, Astro, or plain HTML/CSS. Having a one-command deployment would be very helpful.

Actionability and missing information

Feature request proposing a wrangler deploy --static flag to deploy static sites directly from Wrangler with automatic asset upload to KV or R2, worker script generation, caching headers, and routing; the proposal is self-contained and maintainers can evaluate it from the supplied evidence.

Reproduction reason: This is a feature request for new Wrangler static-site deployment functionality, not a report of incorrect current behavior, so there is no defect to reproduce.
