Previously, the dev-infra release tool would publish major versions
directly to the NPM `@latest` dist tag. This is correct in theory, but
rather unpractical given that we want to publish packages first as
`@next` so that other dependent Angular packages can update too,
allowing us to publish all main Angular packages (from FW, COMP
and TOOL) at the same time to `@latest` on NPM.
This involves creating a new release action for re-tagging the
previously released major as `@latest` on NPM.

We recently added a sanity check that ensures that `python` is
available for Bazel. The check relies on `/usr/bin/python` to check
if python is available w/ the correct version. The problem is
that on Windows there is no guarantee that the `/usr/bin` folder
exists, so the `ng-dev release publish` command always fails.
We fix this by just accessing the `env` binary that is also consulted
by scripts executed within Bazel actions. The `env` binary can be
assumed exist in the shell's `$PATH` and can point us to Python
as if it would be executed within Bazel.

Currently we have a common utility method for running commands
in a child process. This method pipes all stdout and stderr, but sets
the `stdin` to `inherited`. This seemed to work as expected in terms of
allowing interactive commands being executed, but it messes with the
TTY in Windows (and potentially other platforms) so that colors and
prompts no longer work properly. See attached screenshot.
We fix this by not inheriting the stdin by default; but exposing
a dedicated method for interactive commands. This results in more
readable and obvious code too, so it's worth making this change
regardless of the TTY issues.

This commit uses the correct property name (`prettier` vs `pretter`) to
check whether prettier is enabled via the config.
(It also fixes some typos in `dev-infra`.)

Since recently, the `githubToken` parameter passed to the `ReleaseTool`
constructor is no longer used. This commit removes the unused parameter
and also the corresponding argument from the `publish` script.

Due to an issue with wombat proxy returning the login state of the generated tokens,
we will need to require a login for all `ng-dev release publish` runs to ensure npm
login has occured.

Creates a tool for staging and publishing releases as per the
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:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/197kVillDwx-RZtSVOBtPb4BBIAw0E9RT3q3v6DZkykU/edit#heading=h.s3qlps8f4zq7dd
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.
