Deprecate the old merge script as it no longer correctly chooses
the patch branch due to relying on numerical sorting order from
git. Git actually provides a lexicographical sorting order. This
that 9.0.x will be chosen rather than 10.0.x as it is sorted based
the 9 vs 1, rather than 9 vs 10.
PR Close#37247
Adds a deprecation notice to the old merge-pr script informing the
user the script will be removed in favor of the ng-dev merge tooling.
This currently serves as a warning, and does not fail to perform the
merge.
PR Close#37204
Updating `REQUIRED_BASE_SHA` for master and patch branches to make sure PRs that we merge are rebased after `commit-message` validation script update (to make sure the `lint` CI job fails in case a PR contains commits with invalid commit messages).
PR Close#36750
Adds a check to verify that each PR branch to be merged upstream contains SHAs of commits that significantly changed our CI infrastructure.
This check is used to enforce that we don't merge PRs that have not been rebased recently and could result in merging of non-approved or otherwise bad changes.

Previously the auth token could have been split into three separate args in bash which resulted
in two bogus requests being sent out for each curl call. These requests had to time out before
the real request was made, but without the token.
I couldn't find a better way to quickly fix this without adding some duplication.
Use `-f` when doing `git fetch` for the PR. Without
it the `git fetch` will not overwrite what is currently
fetched locally, in essence doing fast-forward only.
