Describe the feature

in the old syntax, I could list a few formatters to try in order, and stop at the first just in the setup call i.e. per filetype

conform.setup({
    formatters_by_ft = {
        javascript = { { "prettierd", "prettier" } },
    },
})

for js files, this would use prettierd if available, and prettier otherwise.

afaik that api's deprecated (message everytime I use it), but from my reading and code spelunking, its not actually possible to specify stop_after_first in the table

is it possible to use the old functionality without using the deprecated api?

Provide background

My question is, how to now run multiple formatters + conditionally run first available? In my config I had the following tldr; for go files run goimports + gofumpt (if available) or gofmt

require('conform').setup({
  formatters_by_ft = {
    go = { 'goimports', { 'gofumpt', 'gofmt' } },
    javascript = { { 'prettierd', 'prettier' }, 'eslint_d' },
    javascriptreact = { { 'prettierd', 'prettier' }, 'eslint_d' },
})

How can I now achieve this in stop_after_first ?
