fix(@angular/build): disable dev-server websocket when live reload is disabled

When live reload is disabled (`"liveReload": false`/`no-live-reload`) within
the development server, the Vite websocket server will no longer be initialized.
Additionally, the client code will not be loaded by the browser. This allows the
development server to be used in test scenarios that would prefer to more fully
represent the production fielded configuration such as E2E testing or other forms
of browser-based testing.

(cherry picked from commit 4633562)
