Description

HTML preset when deploying an Azure Static Web App is a great new improvement as it makes it easer for folks that have just pure HTML, CSS and JS and there's no need to build something and there's no API.

A way to improve it would be to remove the step asking for build directory as there's no build directory. The only thing we need to ask for is app location

So suggest to remove this step

Research direction

Start by locating the HTML preset deployment flow in the VS Code extension and the prompt that asks for a build directory. Remove that prompt while retaining the app-location prompt, then verify the HTML preset no longer requests a build directory during deployment.
