dotnet electronize build should not npm install

[yoDon]

Building and Starting are currently much slower than necessary because every build and every start does a bunch of npm install like tasks that take much longer than the actual build.

The install steps should be handled by a restore or install command, so we don't need to wait for them to complete each time we build/start (or alternatively could we have rebuild/restart commands that are lighter-weight than the full build/start commands, if you want to keep the installs in place?)

At least the start is "faster", because if start detects the node_modules folder it doesn't do a npm install, maybe build should to the same. Good feedback - will consider it for the next drop 👍

Works like the start enhancement - if we detect the node_modules folder, we skip npm install.

Maybe we need a --force command later on to reinstall npm packages if needed.

Is there a proper way to pass --force ?

Because some of my packages need to run npm install with force without there is npm checks aplyed and --force skip this checks(validation)...
