When fetch is run in normal mode, the `git-fetch-pack` plumbing command
outputs progress to stderr. Since this is unnecessary progress
information for ng-dev usages, it should be suppressed instead.

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 script uses `git cherry-pick` for both the API merge strategy
and the autosquash strategy. It uses cherry-pick to push commits to
different target branches (e.g. into the `10.0.x` branch).
Those commits never point to the commits that landed in the primary
Github branch though. For the autosquash strategy the pull request number
is always included, so there is a way to go back to the source. On the other
hand though, for commits cherry-picked in the API merge strategy, the
pull request number might not always be included (due to Github's
implementation of the rebase merge method).

For those cases we'd want to link the cherry-picked commits to the
original commits so that the corresponding PR is easier to track
down. This is not needed for the autosquash strategy (as outlined
before), but it would have been good for consistency. Unfortunately
though this would rather complicate the strategy as the autosquash
strategy cherry-picks directly from the PR head, so the SHAs that
are used in the primary branch are not known.

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.
