Multiple Strings to a single Handler

[Rich2]

Request for a more succinct version of

val routes: Routes[Any, Response] = Routes(
    Method.GET / "" -> handHome,
    Method.GET / "index.html" -> handHome,
    Method.GET / "index.htm" -> handHome,
    Method.GET / "index" -> handHome

So personally my preference would be to for both a general solution to map from a collection of Strings to a Routes collection. But also a specific case as I imagine a good proportion of web sites will want to cover the standard Home page entry points.

I'm just starting to try out ZIO, so apologies, I don't think I can give a more detailed view that would be of value.

I'm not sure that it is a good way to implement such method, but it can be represented like so:

val routes: Routes[Any, Response] = Routes(Method.GET / anyOf("", "index.html", "index.htm", "index") -> handSome)

Do we need method for that in library?

I like this approach, but I would perhaps consider using | or || instead?

Method.GET / ("" | "index.html" | "index.htm" | "index") -> handSome

The disadvantage of | is that it would have to be an extension method on a string. Whereas a method like anyOf requires no extensions. But either could work.
