In #33823, `scripts/package-builds.sh` (which is used by both
`build-packages-dist.sh` and `build-ivy-npm-packages.sh`) was updated to
use `realpath`. It turns out that `realpath` does not exist on macOS, so
the build scripts do not work there.
In order to fix this (and also reduce the likelihood of introducing
similar issues in the future), this commit changes these bash scripts to
Node.js scripts (using [ShellJS](https://github.com/shelljs/shelljs) for
a cross-platform implementation of Unix shell commands where necessary).

Previously, when one wanted to try out the changes from a PR before it
was merged, they had to check out the PR locally and build the Angular
packages themselves (which is time-consuming and wasteful given that the
packages have already been built on CI).
This commit persists all Angular packages on each build as `.tgz` files,
which can be used to install dependencies on an project (supported by
both [npm][1] and [yarn][2]). In addition to individual `.tgz` files for
each package, a `.tgz` file including all packages is also stored, which
can be used to test the packages locally by overwriting the ones in the
`node_modules/` directory of a project.
CircleCI [build artifacts][3] an be used for longer-term storage of the
outputs of a build and are designed to be useful around the time of the
build, which suits our needs.

Adds a new guide that can be used to reproduce failures
reported in the `material-unit-tests` job locally.
The document should live in the framework repository as
the package building scripts are local to the framework
repository.

There is an encoding issue with using delta `Δ`, where the browser will attempt to detect the file encoding if the character set is not explicitly declared on a `<script/>` tag, and Chrome will find the `Δ` character and decide it is window-1252 encoding, which misinterprets the `Δ` character to be some other character that is not a valid JS identifier character
So back to the frog eyes we go.

The `Δ` caused issue with other infrastructure, and we are temporarily
changing it to `ɵɵ`.
This commit also patches ts_api_guardian_test and AIO to understand `ɵɵ`.

Previously we had to share code between upgrade/dynamic and upgrade/static
by symlinking the `src` folder, which allowed both packages to access
the upgrade/common files.
These symlinks are always problematic on Windows, where we had to run
a script to re-link them, and restore them.
This change uses Bazel packages to share the `upgrade/common` code,
which avoids the need for symlinking the `src` folder.
Also, the Windows specific scripts that fixup the symlinks have also
been removed as there is no more need for them.
