fix(@angular-devkit/build-angular): prevent optimization adding unsup…

…ported ECMASCript features

When optimization is enabled with the `@angular-devkit/build-angular:browser` builder, terser
is used as a second phase optimizer. The terser configuration previously set its `ecma` option
to `es2020` due to all officially supported browsers supporting the version. However, it is
possible to add browsers to the browserslist configuration that are not officially supported
that still may work but do not support es2020 syntax features. By setting the terser `ecma`
option to `es2015`, terser will not turn existing syntax into newer syntax features that might
be unsupported. Terser will also not downlevel any code based on this option.

Fixes #24347
