Resolve theme prop defaults through useComponentProps.
LinkBase reads defineProps() directly. Store raw props in _props, then wrap them with useComponentProps before reading prefetch settings. This preserves configured component prop defaults.
As per coding guidelines, src/runtime/components/*.vue must “Wrap raw props with useComponentProps(name, _props) to resolve theme prop defaults.”

📚 Description
Nuxt 4.5 changed
<NuxtLink custom>in nuxt/nuxt#34539: it no longer prefetches anything itself and exposesprefetch,prefetchedandshouldPrefetchto the custom slot instead, leaving the wiring to the consumer.ULinkalways renders<NuxtLink custom>and was dropping those slot props, so with Nuxt 4.5+ nothing built on it prefetches anymore:ULink,UButton,UNavigationMenu,UContentNavigation,UBreadcrumband so on. Docs sites had started adding their ownIntersectionObserverover the navigation to get it back.ULinknow wires both triggers itself, the same way NuxtLink does for non-custom links:pointerenter/focuslisteners are passed through the slot props whenshouldPrefetch('interaction'), so they land onULinkBaseor on whatever element a custom slot renders.shouldPrefetch('visibility'), the rendered element is registered from an idle callback with a singleIntersectionObservershared by every link. The element is found the way NuxtLink found it for custom links before 4.5, as the first element after its fragment anchor.prefetched-classis applied once the link has been prefetched.shouldPrefetchcomes from NuxtLink, soprefetch,prefetch-on,no-prefetch, thenuxt.configdefaults and the slow connection check keep working as before. On Nuxt < 4.5 the slot props are undefined and nothing changes.ULinkBaseand the Vue builds are untouched; the helpers live in a small Nuxt-only util.📝 Checklist
