$(location) is not recommended in the bazel docs as depending on context it will either return the value of $(execpath) or $(rootpath). rules_nodejs now supports $(rootpath) and $(execpath) in templated_args of nodejs_binary.

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

* integration tests target definitions in integration/BUILD.bazel updated to use a single dict
* payload tracking for integration tests updated to work under Bazel
* legacy integration_test CI job removed
* integration/run_tests.sh script no longer used in CI so it has been updated for running integration tests locally in the legacy way
PR Close#35985
* it's tricky to get out of the runfiles tree with `bazel test` as `BUILD_WORKSPACE_DIRECTORY` is not set but I employed a trick to read the `DO_NOT_BUILD_HERE` file that is one level up from `execroot` and that contains the workspace directory. This is experimental and if `bazel test //:test.debug` fails than `bazel run` is still guaranteed to work as `BUILD_WORKSPACE_DIRECTORY` will be set in that context
* test //integration:bazel_test and //integration:bazel-schematics_test exclusively
* run "exclusive" and "manual" bazel-in-bazel integration tests in their own CI job as they take 8m+ to execute
```
//integration:bazel-schematics_test PASSED in 317.2s
//integration:bazel_test PASSED in 167.8s
```
* Skip all integration tests that are now handled by angular_integration_test except the tests that are tracked for payload size; these are:
- cli-hello-world*
- hello_world__closure
* add & pin @babel deps as newer versions of babel break //packages/localize/src/tools/test:test
@babel/core dep had to be pinned to 7.6.4 or else //packages/localize/src/tools/test:test failed. Also //packages/localize uses @babel/generator, @babel/template, @babel/traverse & @babel/types so these deps were added to package.json as they were not being hoisted anymore from @babel/core transitive.
NB: integration/hello_world__systemjs_umd test must run with systemjs 0.20.0
NB: systemjs must be at 0.18.10 for legacy saucelabs job to pass
NB: With Bazel 2.0, the glob for the files to test `"integration/bazel/**"` is empty if integation/bazel is in .bazelignore. This glob worked under these conditions with 1.1.0. I did not bother testing with 1.2.x as not having integration/bazel in .bazelignore is correct.
