[Bug]: Next Redirects don't get persisted if `netlify build` and `netlify deploy` are run seperately

[DavidWells]

Summary

When trying to deploy a site manually via Netlify CLI the redirects aren't persisted.

Here's what didn't work:

netlify build && netlify deploy --prod

Here's what ultimately did work:

netlify deploy --build --prod

When you run netlify build it says its adding redirects like so:

Netlify configuration property "redirects" value changed to [
  { from: '/_next/static/*', to: '/static/:splat', status: 200 },
  {
    from: '/_next/image*',
    query: { url: ':url', w: ':width', q: ':quality' },
    to: '/_ipx/w_:width,q_:quality/:url',
    status: 301
  },
  { from: '/_ipx/*', to: '/.netlify/builders/_ipx', status: 200 },
  { from: '/cache/*', to: '/404.html', status: 404, force: true },
  { from: '/server/*', to: '/404.html', status: 404, force: true },
  { from: '/serverless/*', to: '/404.html', status: 404, force: true },
  { from: '/trace', to: '/404.html', status: 404, force: true },
  { from: '/traces', to: '/404.html', status: 404, force: true },
  {
    from: '/routes-manifest.json',
    to: '/404.html',
    status: 404,
    force: true
  },
  {
    from: '/build-manifest.json',
    to: '/404.html',
    status: 404,
    force: true
  },
  {
    from: '/prerender-manifest.json',
    to: '/404.html',
    status: 404,
    force: true
  },
  {
    from: '/react-loadable-manifest.json',
    to: '/404.html',
    status: 404,
    force: true
  },
  { from: '/BUILD_ID', to: '/404.html', status: 404, force: true },
  {
    from: '/api/*',
    to: '/.netlify/functions/___netlify-handler',
    status: 200
  },
  {
    from: '/_redirects',
    to: '/_redirects',
    conditions: { Cookie: [Array] },
    status: 200
  },
  {
    from: '/*',
    to: '/.netlify/functions/___netlify-handler',
    status: 200,
    conditions: { Cookie: [Array] },
    force: true
  },
  {
    from: '/_next/data/1QYE_ME3iWBSXQ3TmbKeN/index.json',
    to: '/.netlify/functions/___netlify-handler',
    status: 200,
    force: false
  },
  {
    from: '/',
    to: '/.netlify/functions/___netlify-handler',
    status: 200,
    force: false
  },
  {
    from: '/*',
    to: '/.netlify/functions/___netlify-handler',
    status: 200
  }
].

But these aren't actually processed or saved anywhere in the build and the subsequent netlify deploy is "redirectless"

Might want to add this to the docs somewhere or make the output of the CLI more clear on what users of the plugin need to do.

For those looking to deploy sites locally and reset your modified netlify.toml file here is the build/deploy command I'm using:

netlify deploy --build && echo 'reset netlify.toml changes' && git checkout -- netlify.toml

@DavidWells Can you confirm whether this issue still occurs with v5 of the runtime and Next.js 13.5+?
