feat(nuxt): support multiple nuxtApps at runtime (#27068)

 If runtime context is unavailable in your scope, `useNuxtApp` will throw an exception when called. You can use [`tryUseNuxtApp`](#tryusenuxtapp) instead for composables that do not require `nuxtApp`, or to simply check if context is available or not without an exception.
 
+<!--
+note
+By default, the shared runtime context of Nuxt is namespaced under the [`buildId`](/docs/api/nuxt-config#buildid) option. It allows the support of multiple runtime contexts.
