docs(docs-infra): improve docs on creating/updating the preview server Docker image (angular#37015)

This commit includes the following improvements:

- Document that the `create-image.sh` script (and by extention the
  `update-preview-server.sh` script) need to have access to a `yarn`
  executable.

- Add a note on cron jobs running in non-interactive, non-login shells
  (which affects their execution context and have different behavior vs
  running the same commands in an interactive, login shell).

- Change the Node.js and `yarn` installation instructions to ensure the
  `yarn` executable will be available on the `PATH` and not require an
  interactive, login shell (as happens, for example, when installing it
  via [nvm](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm)). This makes it easier to set
  up a cron job that runs the `update-preview-server.sh` script.

NOTE: The equivalent updates have been made on the GCE VM that hosts the
      PR preview server.
