Reproduction steps

Any repo with peerDependencies specification and pnpm.overrides with link: or file: protocol to override peerDependencies.

Describe the Bug

Hi, it is really a breaking change to directly prohibit peer dependencies from using link: and file: protocols which introduced in #8942.

There exists a scene that when we need to debug packages from two different repos, we usually write pnpm.overrides or running pnpm link to do symlinks.

"pnpm": {
  "overrides": {
    "@foo/bar": "link:../baz",
  }
}

This feature of validation in peerDependencies prevents us to using pnpm.overrides like above.

May I ask how can I skip error of ERR_PNPM_INVALID_PEER_DEPENDENCY_SPECIFICATION  after bumping [email protected] with changes of this PR?

Expected Behavior

It would be better to provide a configuration in .npmrc like verify-deps-before-run to make it configurable to disable this validation behaviour.
