Craco+CRA strows middleware deprecation warnings from CRA.

[MattGyverLee]

What's happening
I have a working Craco 5/React 16/Node14 project (https://github.com/MattGyverLee/prestige) that I'm trying to rebuild in Craco 7/React 18/Node 18 from scratch.
I ran CRA and got a working app. I added a CRACO config and got a working app, then added Electron.
In my old app, I would use this command to start both webpack and the Electron server:
"electron-dev": "env-cmd -f .env.electron concurrently \"craco start --config craco.config.js\" \"wait-on http://localhost:3000 && electron public/electron.js",.
It would simply wait until port 3000 woke up and then start Electron.

My env.electron on both projects looks like this:

REACT_APP_NAME=PrestigeElec
REACT_APP_MODE=electron
BROWSER=none
SKIP_PREFLIGHT_CHECK=true

On my new app, I'm using

"electron-dev3": "env-cmd -f .env.electron concurrently \"craco start --config craco.config.js\" \"wait-on http://localhost:3000 && electron public/electron.js",

Initially, I was getting the deprecation warnings shown here:
facebook/create-react-app#11860
I understand that these are warnings from react-scripts and not errors, but they cause the wait-on to never trigger.
I used this post:
facebook/create-react-app#11860 (comment)
and this post:
facebook/create-react-app#12035 (comment)
to resolve/hide the warnings (along with testing CRACO 7.0.0, 7.0.0-alpha.3 and 7.0.0-alpha.5`.

Unfortunately, wait-on still never triggered, and I didn't know why. It just sat and waited indefinitely after the server was running until I crashed it:

C:\Github\prestigenext>yarn electron-dev
yarn run v1.22.19
$ env-cmd -f .env.electron concurrently "craco start --config craco.config.js" "wait-on http://localhost:3000 && electron public/electron.js

Finally, after writing all this, I tested with my local IP address instead of localhost, and wait-on worked. Then I found this post that offers the workaround of http://127.0.0.1:3000 .

What should happen
Once the deprecation bug is solved with react-scripts, CRACO should probably be updated so that we don't need the devServer workaround.

To reproduce

1. CREATE a CRA app with CRACO.
2. Try to start it, and get the deprecation error.

CRACO version
CRACO 7.0.0, 7.0.0-alpha.3 and 7.0.0-alpha.5`.

CRACO config

const fs = require("fs");
const NodePolyfillPlugin = require("node-polyfill-webpack-plugin");
const evalSourceMap = require("react-dev-utils/evalSourceMapMiddleware");
const redirectServedPath = require("react-dev-utils/redirectServedPathMiddleware");
const noopServiceWorker = require("react-dev-utils/noopServiceWorkerMiddleware");
module.exports = {
  webpack: {
    plugins: {
      add: [
        new NodePolyfillPlugin({
          excludeAliases: ["console"],
        }),
      ],
    },
  },
  devServer: (devServerConfig, { env, paths }) => {
    devServerConfig = {
      onBeforeSetupMiddleware: undefined,
      onAfterSetupMiddleware: undefined,
      setupMiddlewares: (middlewares, devServer) => {
        if (!devServer) {
          throw new Error("webpack-dev-server is not defined");
        }
        if (fs.existsSync(paths.proxySetup)) {
          require(paths.proxySetup)(devServer.app);
        }
        middlewares.push(
          evalSourceMap(devServer),
          redirectServedPath(paths.publicUrlOrPath),
          noopServiceWorker(paths.publicUrlOrPath)
        );
        return middlewares;
      },
    };
    return devServerConfig;
  },
};

Additional information
I realize that this is a sticky incompatibility between CRACO and CRA (with an open issue).
