Babel preset: Add unstable_preserveClassPrivate to experiment with disabling private class transforms for SH (#55880)

Summary:
Pull Request resolved: #55880

Disable `babel/plugin-transform-private-methods` and `babel/plugin-transform-private-property-in-object` when `customTransformOptions.unstable_preserveClassPrivate` is truthy. This allows us to experiment with native private class field and method support in Static Hermes.
