feat(@angular-devkit/build-angular): support ESM proxy configuration …

…files for the dev server

The `proxyConfig` option now supports loading ESM configuration files in addition to JSON and CommonJS files. ESM files (such as those ending with `.mjs`) must provide a default export with the configuration object.
For example, a `proxy.config.mjs` containing the follow is now possible:
```
export default { "/api/*": { "target": "http://127.0.0.1:5001" } };
```

Closes #21623
