fix: high memory/cpu usage in dev #137

In development, the tutor-mfe plugin runs a separate container for every MFE. This runs npm run start for each of the 9 MFEs, which causes the developer laptops to crash and ice caps to melt.

Here, we adopt a different solution. By default, all MFEs run in a single container, which is the same as the production container (with caddy). Only the Caddyfile is different. This effectively resolves the performance issue.

But to allow developers to hack on invidual MFEs, we also need to run some of them in development mode, with npm run start. To do that, we run separately only those MFEs for which the developer has a bind-mounted directory that corresponds to the MFE repository. This allows developers to keep working on MFEs with the help of tutor mounts ... command.
