We are migrating to PullApprove for our PR review management in an attempt
to allow for more granular and equitable code review assignments across the
team. Currently this migration is equivalent in the review assignments
it will create. Once stable, our expectation is that we will be able to
take advantage of PullApproves additional features for things like staged
reviews.

We rename the `material-unit-tests` job to `components-repo-unit-tests`
because the job runs all unit tests found in the Angular Components repository.
This includes the Angular CDK, Angular Material and more. Also the repository has
been renamed from `angular/material2` to `angular/components` in the past.

Since config=ivy now sets the define=compile flag and the define=angular_ivy_enabled
flag to cause usage of Ivy, we can update all of the documentation and scripts that
reference compile=aot to use config=ivy.
PR Close#33983
We have determined that the upload time cost of remote caching via http is too costly
to be effective for our distributed usage scenario. However this cost is still worth
it for us for Windows CI runs on a full cache hit move from a ~60 minute task to ~10
minutes.
It is worth noting that this remote http-caching is entirely separate from RBE caching
mechanisms.

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.

PR Close#33321
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.
