This is a workaround for a TS 3.9 regression https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/38501 where the emitted `__exportStar` helpers have a missing semi-colon at the end of the unnamed function, when targetting UMD, and causes the following runtime error `Uncaught TypeError: (intermediate value)(…) is not a function`.
This is because the anonymous `__exportStar` function will be invoked with the function on the next like as the parameter which is subsequently invoking whatever was returned.
To get around this TS bug, add `importHelpers: true` in your tsconfig. This also, is recommanded to avoid multiple copies of the same helper being inlined, which might cause increase in bundle size.

* No longer builds the example e2e tests using "tsc". The examples are now built with Bazel and can therefore be built with Ivy by using the `--define=compile=aot` switch.
* No longer runs the example e2e tests using the protractor CLI. example e2e tests are executed with the Bazel protractor rule and can therefore run incrementally.
NOTE: Unit tests found within the examples are still running within the legacy jobs.
