Issue: Authentication generator without LiveView selected, adds LV methods
### Environment

* Elixir version (elixir -v): Elixir 1.17.0
* Phoenix version (mix deps):1.7.18
* Operating system: MacOS

### Actual behavior

```
Do you want to create a LiveView based authentication system? [Yn] n
```

Instead liveview methods like `on_mount`, and related tests, are created

```ex
  def on_mount(:mount_current_user, _params, session, socket) do
  def on_mount(:ensure_authenticated, _params, session, socket) do
  def on_mount(:redirect_if_user_is_authenticated, _params, session, socket) do
```

### Expected behavior

There should be no liveview specific unused methods.
Pull request description: phx.gen.auth: don't generate on_mount functions when not needed
Closes #6045.

+## Clustering and Long-Polling Transports
+
+Phoenix supports two types of transports for its Socket implementation: WebSocket, and Long-Polling. When generating a Phoenix project, you can see the default configuration set in the generated `endpoint.ex` file:
+
+```elixir
+socket "/live", Phoenix.LiveView.Socket,
+  websocket: [connect_info: [session: @session_options]],
+  longpoll: [connect_info: [session: @session_options]]
+```
+
+This configuration tells Phoenix that both the WebSocket and the Long-Polling options are available, and based on the client's network conditions, Phoenix will first attempt to connect to the WebSocket, falling back to the Long-Poll option after the configured timeout found in the generated `app.js` file:
+
+```javascript
+let liveSocket = new LiveSocket("/live", Socket, {
+  longPollFallbackMs: 2500,
+  params: {_csrf_token: csrfToken}
+})
+```
+
+If you are running more than one machine in production, which is the recommended approach in most cases, this automatic fallback comes with an important caveat. If you want Long-Polling to work properly, your application must either:
+
+1. Utilize the Erlang VM's clustering capabilities, so the default `Phoenix.PubSub` adapter can broadcast messages across nodes
+
+2. Choose a different `Phoenix.PubSub` adapter (such as `Phoenix.PubSub.Redis`)
+
+3. Or your deployment option must implement sticky sessions - ensuring that all requests for a specific session go to the same machine
+
+The reason for this is simple. While a WebSocket is a long-lived open connection to the same machine, long-polling works by opening a request to the server, waiting for a timeout or until the open request is fulfilled, and repeating this process. In order to preserve the state of the user's connected socket and to preserve the behaviour of a socket being long-lived, the user's process is kept alive, and each long-poll request attempts to find the user's stateful process. If the stateful process is not reachable, every request will create a new process and a new state, thereby breaking the fact that the socket is long-lived and stateful.

 To do that, we'll use the special HEEx tags for executing Elixir expressions: `{...}` and `<%= %>`. Notice that EEx tag has an equals sign like this: `<%=` . That means that any Elixir code that goes between those tags will be executed, and the resulting value will replace the tag in the HTML output. If the equals sign were missing, the code would still be executed, but the value would not appear on the page.
