[Core feature] Simplify the local development environment for flyteconsole

[MortalHappiness]

Motivation: Why do you think this is important?

The setup guide of flyteconsole says that we need to generate an SSL certificate and set domain name routing rules in /etc/hosts, which is way too complex for frontend development. For the frontend development, we don't need SSL because we can use HTTP instead of HTTPS. We don't need a custom domain name except that the backend has the multi-tenancy feature. However, as far as I know, Flyte does not have the multi-tenancy feature now.

Goal: What should the final outcome look like, ideally?

Simplify the local development environment for flyteconsole to remove SSL and domain name related stuffs.

Good day @davidmirror-ops
Here' s the setup guide https://github.com/flyteorg/flyteconsole/blob/master/README.md#-development with an SSL definition and hosts record instruction.

Found another guide without the hosts record which also adds that the SSL generation is necessary to avoid errors on yarn start.

I have tested it and found it true. Generating this error message

ERROR: Can not locate server.key and server.crt in ../../scripts/certificate location
Please re-genereate your site certificates by running yarn gen:ssl than re-run the command

So on the docs end I can rewrite the steps here and here to not add a host record.

Is that alright?
