feat(@angular-devkit/build-angular): switch to Sass modern API in esb…

…uild builder

With this change we replace Sass legacy with the modern API in the experimental esbuilder. The goal is that in the next major version this change is propagated to the Webpack builder.

Based on the benchmarks that we did Sass modern API is faster compared to the legacy version.
