Bundle size increase between 16.3 and 17
Description
I have noticed an almost 1MB increase in the output bundle size of my application after updating from version 16.3 of the components to version 17.0.
I put together a repo using several kendo angular dependencies such as the grid, buttons, dialog.
The exact same application is 2.38 MB using version 16.3 of the dependencies, but 3.35 MB using the latest 18.3 version of the dependencies.
Please see: https://github.com/conor-mac-aoidh/kendo-bundle-sizes-v18/tree/main
Steps To Reproduce
Update kendo for angular dependency versions from 16.3 to 17.x.

Actual Behavior
The bundle size is increased by almost 1MB
Expected Behavior
The bundle size should not be significantly increased. With the use of standalone components, there should be potential to reduce the bundle size.
