remove redundant build CLI command invocation

[SutuSebastian]

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Refactor
  • Optimized plugin startup across bundlers to improve development startup performance.
  • Build now runs conditionally when minification/build flags are set; dev mode starts without an unconditional pre-build, reducing unnecessary build overhead.
• Chores
  • Added a patch changeset noting removal of a redundant build CLI invocation.

Walkthrough

The changes remove unconditional initial build() calls from several UI bundler plugins and adjust build vs. dev logic so plugins either run dev() directly or run build() only when a minify/production flag is set.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Minify-based build/dev condition packages/ui/src/plugin/bun.ts, packages/ui/src/plugin/esbuild.ts	Removed unconditional initial build() on startup; inverted branching so build() runs only when a minify flag is truthy, otherwise dev() is invoked.
Removed pre-dev build calls packages/ui/src/plugin/modernjs.ts, packages/ui/src/plugin/parcel.ts, packages/ui/src/plugin/rspack.ts	Removed pre-dev build() invocations from hooks/events (e.g., beforeDev, watchStart, first dev run)—plugins now call dev() directly without a preceding build.
Release metadata .changeset/slimy-news-poke.md, package.json	Adds a changeset noting a patch bump for flowbite-react and documents removal of redundant build CLI invocation.

Estimated code review effort

🎯 2 (Simple) | ⏱️ ~10 minutes

• Changes are homogeneous across multiple plugin files (removal of initial builds and minor condition inversion).
• Pay extra attention to:
  • packages/ui/src/plugin/esbuild.ts — ensure initialOptions.minify semantics align with build-time expectations.
  • packages/ui/src/plugin/bun.ts — confirm config.minify source and truthiness handling.
  • Plugin lifecycle hooks (beforeDev, watchStart, dev startup) to ensure no race conditions or missing artifacts.

Poem

🐰 I hopped through code at break of day,

Removed a build that ran away.
Now dev starts swift, no extra chore,
Minify decides what builds restore.
Hooray for speed — I bounce some more! 🥕✨
