Paul Gschwendtner 383f04b96d feat(dev-infra): register ts-node when reading configuration (#37196)
`ts-node` is now an optional peer dependency of the shared dev-infra
package. Whenever a `ng-dev` command runs, and a TypeScript-based
configuration file exists, `ts-node` is set up if available.

That allows consumers of the package (as the components repo) to more
conveniently use a TypeScript-based configuration for dev-infra.

Currently, commands would need to be proxied through `ts-node`
which rather complicates the setup:

```
NG_DEV_COMMAND="ts-node ./node_modules/@angular/dev-infra-private/cli.js"
```

I'm thinking that it should be best-practice to use TypeScript for
writing the configuration files. Given that the tool is used primarily
in Angular projects (for which most sources are TypeScript), this should
be acceptable.
