Avoid using the Angular Signals ".update()" operation when using the component life cycle hook "afterRender"

Angular will update the view continuously when a signal is changed.

Angular has also introduced the afterRender lifecycle hook, which is called after Angular has rendered the view.

If we update a signal in the afterRender hook, ensure the signal's value does not change when the view is updated.

We should use the Signals .set() operation instead of .update().
