Sets up the environment variable for Firebase to go to the correct DB (dev/production).
It's done by a grunt task called grunt-ng-constant which defines the env vars in the gruntfile itself and creates a config module that includes an ENV constant according to the used grunt task.
To use when developing just run 'grunt serve'.
To work on production DB locally run 'grunt serve:dist'.
When deploying new code to production through the firebase hosting (npm run pre-deploy, npm run deploy) it uses the 'grunt build' task which updates the configuration to the production env.
