A test for the dev-infra publish tool currently relies on an external
http request by accident. This will break if we disallow internet
access within RBE containers.

new branching and versioning that has been outlined in the following
document. The tool is intended to be used across the organization to
ensure consistent branching/versioning and labeling:

The tool implements the actions as outlined in the following
initial plan: https://hackmd.io/2Le8leq0S6G_R5VEVTNK9A.
The implementation slightly diverged in so far that it performs
staging and publishing together so that releasing is a single
convenient command. In case of errors for which re-running the
full command is not sufficient, we want to consider adding
recover functionality. e.g. when the staging completed, but the
actual NPM publishing aborted unexpectedly due to build errors.
