CCDM: no way to use exported webcomponents

[manolo]

Generated bundle in client-side mode is not able to import flow exported webcomponents since it takes as entry the frontend/index.ts file that loads asynchronously the generated target/frontend/generated-flow-imports

Possible solution is to deliver two bundles: vaadin-bundle.js and vaadin-wc.js, the first used in the IndexHtmlRequestHandler and second in the WebComponentBootstrapHandler

A workaround for having flow IT's passing is to have a custom index.ts file with just a line import '../target/frontend/generated-flow-imports'; but there is an issue related with this solution: vaadin/hilla#337

What is the use case, aside from our own ITs?

• Given any Vaadin application that is exported the whole application as a webcomponent, it cannot be used from a 3rd party application importing it as a webcomponent. workaroune: needs to be run with the old bootstrap
• Given a Vaadin application that can be used as a regular vaadin app including some client views, but it has exported sever views as webcomponents, it is imposible to use from a 3rd party app.
