fix: Fallback to full reload if React version doesn't support Fast Refresh

Changes

Fallback to the full reload if React version doesn't support Fast Refresh

  • Overwrite FAST_REFRESH to false if the current react version doesn't support (< 16.9.0)
  • Remove Fast Refresh warning on the older react version since we will automatically fallback to do full reload.
  • Change the minimum supported version to 16.9.0 per react-refresh-webpack-plugin's prerequisites.
