The StackBlitz API (which we use to generate StackBlitz projects on the
fly, when a user clicks on a live example link in the docs) allows
specifying the file to open in the editor by passing a query param. If
no file is specified, StackBlitz opens a default one. In the past, it
used to be `main.ts` and nowadays it seems to be `app.component.ts`.
StackBlitz builder, the tool that we use to generate the StackBlitz
projects, allows specifying the primary file by setting the `file`
property in the corresponding `stackblitz.json`.
Previously, if the `file` property was not set, StackBlitz builder would
not specify a file, thus falling back on StackBlitz's default behavior.
This was not great, because the default behavior may change unexpectedly
is the future to something that is less useful for our users.
This commit change StackBlitz builder to always specify a primary file.
If no file is specified in `stackblitz.json`, the builder will look
for the first file that exists in the example from a list of predefined
files.
Partially addresses #22357.

Previously, the generated StackBlitz examples as well as the
corresponding downloadable zips for the `http` guide examples were not
correct and thus trying to run the app and/or tests would fail.
This commit fixes the examples:
- Replace `TestBed.inject()` (which was [introduced in v9][1]) with
`TestBed.get()` (which is available in v8 used in the examples).
(NOTE: The examples will soon be updated to v9 (as part of
[FW-1609][2] and switched back to `TestBed.inject()` then.)
- Include `src/app/heroes/hero.ts` in the zip, because it is referenced
by some of the other files and the compilation fails without it.
- Ensure `src/main-specs.ts` is not included in the zip that does not
include the tests. Including the file broke the app, because there is
logic in our zip-builder that renamed `main-*.ts` files to `main.ts`
and thus `main-specs.ts` ended up overwriting the actual `main.ts`.
