The current build workflow depends on cross workspace dependency by
installing angular-cli as a Bazel repository. This is not ideal because
it introduces separate node_module directories other than the one
installed by Angular through the yarn_install rule (ngdeps).
This commit removes angular-cli from the Bazel workspace and installs
rollup and @angular-devkit/build-optimizer locally.
PR Close#28215
Previously the repo was depending on an old version of build optimizer.
This change updates to the latest (an RC release in the CLI package).
Additionally, this changes the behavior of ng_rollup_bundle to apply
the optimizer to ngtsc compiled code, and configures it to treat the
@angular/compiler package as side-effect-free.
This results in a substantial size reduction of ngtsc compiled code.

Bazel has a restriction that a single output (eg. a compiled version of
//packages/common) can only be produced by a single rule. This precludes
the Angular repo from having multiple rules that build the same code. And
the complexity of having a single rule produce multiple outputs (eg. an
ngc-compiled version of //packages/common and an Ivy-enabled version) is
too high.
Additionally, the Angular repo has lots of existing tests which could be
executed as-is under Ivy. Such testing is very valuable, and it would be
nice to share not only the code, but the dependency graph / build config
as well.
Thus, this change introduces a --define flag 'compile' with three potential
values. When --define=compile=X is set, the entire build system runs in a
particular mode - the behavior of all existing targets is controlled by
the flag. This allows us to reuse our entire build structure for testing
in a variety of different manners. The flag has three possible settings:
* legacy (the default): the traditional View Engine (ngc) build
* local: runs the prototype ngtsc compiler, which does not rely on global
analysis
* jit: runs ngtsc in a mode which executes tsickle, but excludes the
Angular related transforms, which approximates the behavior of plain
tsc. This allows the main packages such as common to be tested with
the JIT compiler.
Additionally, the ivy_ng_module() rule still exists and runs ngc in a mode
where Ivy-compiled output is produced from global analysis information, as
a stopgap while ngtsc is being developed.

This is a customization of the rollup_bundle rule from rules_nodejs
which adds the build-optimizer as a plugin.
Add a functional test with fast round-trip that asserts the minified app
still works.
Publish the min.js artifact on circleCI so we can track its size.
