Adding an option to disable HTTP streaming (#3777)

* Adding a flag to disable HTTP streaming

* refactor: adding support for SSG builds

* handling string responses in the server runtime, adding tests

* removing streaming CLI flag

* removing import.meta.env.STREAMING

* include Content-Length header when streaming is disabled

* Verifying content-length header in dev

* fix: default streaming to enabled in the base App server

* TEMP: disabling the production test to investigate the test-adapter

* re-enabling the test with an adapter option to disable streaming for the test

* fix: use the existing TextEncoder to get the body's byte length

* moving config to build.streaming, ignoring it in `dev`

* fixing dev test to expect response streaming

* chore: add changsets

* removing the new config option all together 🎉

* remove temp debug log

* Updating astro changeset now that streaming isn't a config option
