This has a couple benefits:
- we now use a .bazelversion file rather than package.json to pin the version of bazel we want. This means even if you install bazel on your computer rather than via yarn, you'll still get a warning if your bazel version is wrong.
- you no longer end up downloading three copies of bazel due to bugs in both npm and yarn where they download all tarballs before checking the metadata to see which are usable on the local platform.
- bazelisk correctly handles the tools/bazel trick for wrapping functionality, which we want to use to instrument developer build latencies

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.

What was there didn't work at all, and resulted in an error `Error processing "attach": Error: Both localRoot and remoteRoot must be specified`

This PR introduces:
1. Google Cloud Store bucket which contains build artifacts
2. Documentation on how to enable remote caching in development
Each team member should download a service key. More convenient ways of authentication would be more obscure and prevent us from doing identity tracking of the produced artifacts.

* No longer depends on a custom CircleCI docker image that comes with Bazel pre-installed. Since Bazel is now available through NPM, we should be able to use the version from `@bazel/bazel` in order to enforce a consistent environment on CI and locally.
* This also reduces the amount of packages that need to be published (ngcontainer is removed)

Originally, the ivy_switch mechanism used Bazel genrules to conditionally
compile one TS file or another depending on whether ngc or ngtsc was the
selected compiler. This was done because we wanted to avoid importing
certain modules (and thus pulling them into the build) if Ivy was on or
off. This mechanism had a major drawback: ivy_switch became a bottleneck
in the import graph, as it both imports from many places in the codebase
and is imported by many modules in the codebase. This frequently resulted
in cyclic imports which caused issues both with TS and Closure compilation.
It turns out ngcc needs both code paths in the bundle to perform the switch
during its operation anyway, so import switching was later abandoned. This
means that there's no real reason why the ivy_switch mechanism needed to
operate at the Bazel level, and for the ivy_switch file to be a bottleneck.
This commit removes the Bazel-level ivy_switch mechanism, and introduces
an additional TypeScript transform in ngtsc (and the pass-through tsc
compiler used for testing JIT) to perform the same operation that ngcc
does, and flip the switch during ngtsc compilation. This allows the
ivy_switch file to be removed, and the individual switches to be located
directly next to their consumers in the codebase, greatly mitigating the
circular import issues and making the mechanism much easier to use.
As part of this commit, the tag for marking switched variables was changed
from __PRE_NGCC__ to __PRE_R3__, since it's no longer just ngcc which
flips these tags. Most variables were renamed from R3_* to SWITCH_* as well,
since they're referenced mostly in render2 code.
Test strategy: existing test coverage is more than sufficient - if this
didn't work correctly it would break the hello world and todo apps.

This should cause Bazel builds to be incremental, only re-building parts of Angular affected by changes since the last build.
It also fixes a potential version skew, where CI was running the Bazel linter binaries in the ngcontainer docker image, but developers built them using the versions in WORKSPACE
