build(docs-infra): show a dist-tag when installing the CLI on non-stable versions (angular#42042)

It is important to use the correct major version of the Angular CLI when
following the examples in the tutorials. This commit provides a custom
element that renders an appropriate dist-tag in the setup step of
the tutorial when the docs are not in "stable" mode.

Fixes angular#39821

PR Close angular#42042
