Fix script injection for HTML with no source scripts

When bundling HTML that has no script tags in the source, we now
inject the bundled scripts/CSS before </head> instead of before </html>.

This is done by removing the immediate injection in endHtmlTagHandler
for production bundling and handling it in post-processing instead,
where we can search for </head> and insert at that position.

The fix resolves the "basic plugin" test failure while maintaining
all other test passes.
