feat(@angular-devkit/build-angular): allow customization of output lo…

…cations

This update introduces the ability for users to define the locations for storing `media`, `browser`, and `server` files.

You can achieve this by utilizing the extended `outputPath` option.
```json
{
  "projects": {
    "my-app": {
      "architect": {
        "build": {
          "builder": "@angular-devkit/build-angular:application",
          "options": {
            "outputPath": {
              "base": "dist/my-app",
              "browser": "",
              "server": "node-server",
              "media": "resources"
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
```

While not recommended, choosing to set the `browser` option empty will result in files being output directly under the specified `base` path. It's important to note that this action will generate certain files like `stats.json` and `prerendered-routes.json` that aren't intended for deployment in this directory.

**Validation rules:**
- `browser` and `server` are relative to the configuration set in the `base` option.
- When SSR is enabled, `browser` cannot be set to an empty string, and cannot be the same as `server`.
- `media` is relative to the value specified in the `browser` option.
- `media` cannot be set to an empty string.
- `browser`, `media`, or `server` cannot contain slashes.

Closes: #26632 and closes: #26057
