fix(@angular-devkit/build-angular): use preserveSymlinks option for tsconfigs in esbuild builder

When using the esbuild-based browser application builder, the tsconfig path will now be properly
converted to the realpath when the `preserveSymlinks` option is disabled (the default). This ensures
that TypeScript source files will be properly matched with the bundler's resolved paths when symlinks
are used and the `preserveSymlinks` option is not enabled. This is needed to properly support the use
of bazel with rules_js.
