Several raw HTML `<a>` anchors in adev markdown link to external sites without `target="_blank"`, so they open in the same tab instead of a new one like the rest of the site's external links. Add `target="_blank"` to match.

What kind of change does this PR introduce?
What is the current behavior?
Several markdown pages in
adev/src/contentuse raw HTML<a>elementsthat link to external sites without
target="_blank". Because theanchors are written as HTML rather than markdown link syntax, they
bypass the marked link renderer that normally adds
target="_blank"toexternal links. As a result, clicking these links navigates the user
away from angular.dev in the same tab.
Affected anchors include the Firebase Studio link on the AI page, the
Firebase / Tensorflow / Flutter / Material Design / Google Cloud
partner links on the "What is Angular" page, the Google Fonts link in
the roadmap, and the Microsoft PowerShell execution policy link in the
CLI setup guide.
What is the new behavior?
The affected anchors now carry
target="_blank"so external URLs openin a new tab, matching both the surrounding raw HTML anchors in each
file and what the marked link renderer emits for external markdown
links.
