Rather than running ng-dev via ts-node, going forward ng-dev is generated and run
locally via node. Additionally, the generated file is tested on each commit to
ensure that the local generated version stays up to date.

The merge tool provides a way for configurations to determine the branches
for a label lazily. This is supported because it allows labels to respect
the currently selected base branch through the Github UI. e.g. if `target: label`
is applied on a PR and the PR is based on the patch branch, then the change
could only go into the selected target branch, while if it would be based on
`master`, the change would be cherry-picked to `master` too. This allows for
convenient back-porting of changes if they did not apply cleanly to the primary
development branch (`master`).
We want to expand this function so that it is possible to report failures if an
invalid target label is appplied (e.g. `target: major` not allowed in
some situations), or if the Github base branch is not valid for the given target
label (e.g. if `target: lts` is used, but it's not based on a LTS branch).

GitClient now uses GithubClient for github API interactions. GithubClient is
a class which extends Octokit and provides a member which allows for GraphQL
requests against the Github GraphQL api, as well as providing convenience methods
for common/repeated Github API requests.

Adds support for a caretaker note label to the merge script.
Whenever a configured label is applied, the merge script will
not merge automatically, but instead prompt first in order
to ensure that the caretaker paid attention to the manual
caretaker note on the PR. This helps if a PR needs special
attention.

Integrates the merge script into the `ng-dev` CLI. The goal is that
caretakers can run the same command across repositories to merge a pull
request. The command is as followed: `yarn ng-dev pr merge <number>`.

Moves the merge script from the components repository over
to the shared dev-infra package. The merge script has been
orginally built for all Angular repositories, but we just
kept it in the components repo temporarily to test it.
Since everything went well on the components side, we now
move the script over and integrate it into the dev-infra package.
