live_svelte build.js for esbuild 0.17+

Thank you for updating build.js to use svelte-preprocess!

I ran mix live_svelte.setup with live_svelte version 0.11.0. build.js only works with esbuild version 0.16.x and earlier because the 'watch' implementation changed.

If you don't pin esbuild to version 0.16.x in package.json, build.js should look something like this.

Is this the same issue as: https://github.com/woutdp/live_svelte/issues/29

Per #29, this doesn't work in Docker? I don't recall where I saw that. If the old watch style is required by build.js, I think the README should specify pinning the version of esbuild and perhaps mention this issue if users want to upgrade.

It's something I have to take a look at again, if I can make the new version work I'll update the build.js file to use the latest version

I think this might be solved by now, official documentation supports the new version: https://hexdocs.pm/phoenix/asset_management.html#esbuild-plugins

This will be released in the new version together with Svelte 5 (soon :tm:)
