Remove `${CI_SERVER_PORT}` in NPM `.gitlab-ci.yml` template

Toshitaka Ito requested to merge toshitakaitio-nfriend-fix-npm-template into master

What does this MR do?

This MR replaces //${CI_SERVER_HOST}:${CI_SERVER_PORT}/api/... with //${CI_SERVER_HOST}/api/... in the _authToken setting sections in order to make npm CI jobs login to GitLab npm registry successfully.

No server ports are required for the authentication format, according to https://docs.npmjs.com/using-private-packages-in-a-ci-cd-workflow.

Screenshots (strongly suggested)

When I use the original npm template with GitLab's NodeJS Express project template (before):

No new version of @foo/bar published. This is most likely because version 0.0.0 already exists in GitLab's NPM registry.

When I remove :${CI_SERVER_PORT}s in the npm template (after):
