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 `NgPackagesInstaller` needed to install the local
Angular packages to a project, it assumed the `dist/packages-dist/`
would exist and contain up-to-date built packages. I.e. it was up to the
user to have built the packages first (by running the appropriate
script).
However, many people not familiar with the `aio/` infrastructure assumed
that `yarn build-local` or `yarn build-with-ivy` would take care of all
the necessary steps.
To avoid getting confusing errors (or worse yet, using outdated local
packages), `NgPackagesInstaller` now has an option to build the packages
before using them.
One caveat is that the build script does not currently work on Windows,
so a warning is printed instead, letting the user know they need to
(somehow) take care of it themselves.
NOTE 1: Since the build script is using bazel, running it should not be
expensive if the directory is up-to-date (i.e. no changes have
been made to source code after the last build).
NOTE 2: This commit adds support for `--build-packages`, but does not
change the default behavior (not building the packages). It will
be turned on in a subsequent commit.

Previously, `ng-packages-installer` would replace the version ranges for
all dependencies that were peer dependencies of an Angular package with
the version range used in the Angular package. This effectively meant
that the pinned version (from `yarn.lock`) for that dependency was
ignored (even if the pinned version satisfied the new version range).
This commit reduces non-determinism in CI jobs using the locally built
Angular packages by always using pinned versions of dependencies for
Angular package peer dependencies if possible.
For example, assuming the following versions for the RxJS dependency:
- **aio/package.json**: `rxjs: ^6.3.0`
- **aio/yarn.lock**: `rxjs@^6.3.0: 6.3.3`
- **@angular/core#peerDependencies**: `rxjs: ^6.0.0`
...the following versions would be used with `ng-packages-installer`:
- Before this commit:
- **aio/package.json**: `rxjs: ^6.0.0`
- **node_modules/rxjs/**: `6.4.0` (latest version satisfying `^6.0.0`)
- After this commit:
- **aio/package.json**: `rxjs: ^6.3.0`
- **node_modules/rxjs/**: `6.3.3` (because it satisfies `^6.0.0`)

`ng-packages-installer` can be used to replace Angular packages with
locally built ones (from `dist/packages-dist/`) along with their peer
dependencies.
Previously, in order to achieve this, `yarn install` was called with the
`--no-lockfile` option, which resulted in installing the latest versions
of all dependencies (including transitive ones) permitted by the
corresponding version ranges in `package.json` files. As a result, newly
released versions would be picked, resulting in unexpected,
non-deterministic breakages in CI.
This commit calls `yarn install` with the `--pure-lockfile` option
instead. As a result, only the Angular packages (for which the locally
built ones are used) and their peer dependencies are unpinned; the
pinned versions from `yarn.lock` are used for all other (direct and
transitive) dependencies.
While this does not eliminate non-determinism across builds, it
significantly reduces it.

Since b43f8bc7d, RxJS does not need to be patched any more in the
top-level `node_modules/`, so we don't need to special-case RxJS in
`ng-package-installer` and use `node_modules/rxjs/`.
