Previously, cli-based docs examples were tested using `yarn e2e ...`. In
some cases, it might make sense to run different or additional checks
for a docs example (when running `yarn example-e2e` in `aio/`).
Currently, the only option is to define a custom project type and
overwrite the `e2e` yarn script in `package.json`. Doing so (in addition
to being cumbersome and verbose) would also end up in the `.zip` archive
that users can download to run the example locally. This would be
confusing, if these custom tests are specific to our CI needs.
This commit adds support for defining a custom list of commands per
example. These commands (if specified) would be run instead of the
default `yarn e2e ...`, when testing the docs examples on CI (via
`yarn example-e2e`).
(This feature will be used to verify that the
`service-worker-getting-started` example is set up correctly in a
subsequent commit, but can be useful in other cases as well.)

It seems that occasionally the sharding of docs examples e2e tests gets
messed up resulting in some tests not being run. This can cause CI to be
green on a PR, when they shouldn't (because the failing tests didn't run
at all).
It is unclear under what circumstances this happens, so printing the
paths of found e2e specs will help debug the issue when it comes up
again.

Since our version of Chromium is also pinned, a new ChromeDriver (that
drops support for our Chromium version) can cause random (and unrelated
to the corresponding changes) errors on CI.
This commit pins the version of ChromeDriver and it should now be
manually upgraded to a vrsion that is compatible with th currently used
Chromium version.

The tooling for boilerplate was also running `yarn install` on the examples'
shared folder. But since this is handled by `ng-packages-installer` this
commit refactors the tools so that the boilerplate no longer does this
anymore.

This commit also updates the version of `@angular/cli` used for docs examples.
The previous (transient) dependency `@ngtools/webpack` was not compatible with
`@angular/compiler-cli@>=5` and was breaking when running against the local
builds (currently at 5.0.0-beta.2). The version of `@ngtools/webpack` used by
the latest `@angular/cli` version is compatible with `@angular/compiler-cli@5`.
