CLI is running all registered IHostedService

[desjoerd]

Currently the CLI is running all registered Hosted Services (IHostedService). I see that it's needed to start the application because otherwise the app.Use*/app.Map* configuration is not run. Because it's starting the application (with a NoopServer) it is running all registered HostedServices.

Because the CLI is almost always run in the context of a build it would be nice to not run those registered hosted services. This would also solve instances of for example HangFire or other things which start an IHostedService.

I've got a fix which I would like to discuss. It's a bit dirty but it works in my tests.

The workaround I describe there requires modifying the application code so your pull request is probably a much better approach!

I'm just a bit worried that this project looks currently inactive. Last commit and last comment from @domaindrivendev dates back to January, 11. In the meantime, issues and pull requests are piling on. 😕 I hope this is only temporary. 🤞
