* Update development.md

Visual Studio Code with devcontainers is the recommended dev environment for Home Assistant.
However, it's not trivial to integrate this dev environment with the frontend dev environment, as the Home Assistant's container doesn't have access to the frontend directory.
Adding the instructions on how to mount the frontend directory to the container.

If you are using Visual Studio Code with devcontainers for Home Assistant, you need to mount the `frontend` directory into the container. Add the following section to `.devcontainer/devcontainer.json`:
```json
"mounts": [
"source=/path/to/hass/frontend,target=/workspaces/frontend,type=bind,consistency=cached"
]
```
The Home Assistant's devcontainer needs to get rebuit via the `docker-build` [task](/development_environment.md#tasks), and the `configuration.yaml` should point to the path inside the container:
```yaml
frontend:
