Previously if there was a problem when building the tests, the error would
be swallowed as an unhandled promise rejection. Now these are caught and
the process is exited with a non-zero value to prevent any CI jobs from
passing incorrectly.

This commit includes the following types of changes:
- Remove unused dependencies.
- Move dev dependencies from `devDependencies` to `dependencies` (and
vice versa for production dependencies).
- Update `@types/*`.
- Update dependencies to more closely match the dependencies installed
by the latest CLI for new apps.
Also, ensured that the latest version of `webdriver-manager` (v12.1.7)
was installed for `protractor`, which correctly installs a ChromeDriver
version that is compatible with the latest version of Chrome.

This commit also changes the config files and their layout to
(reasonably closely) match what the cli would generate for a new app.
