The dev-infra build tooling is now decoupled from `ng-dev`. This will
make it easier to update `ng-dev` without necessarily needing to upgrade
the whole build system, Bazel etc. This is useful when e.g. new release
tool features have been added and should also be ported to active LTS
branches.

With the new ESM version of `ng-dev`, the TypeScript config loading
cannot happen automatically because `ts-node` cannot hook into the
Node ESM module resolution at runtime. To fix this `ng-dev` is now
loading a plain `.ng-dev/config.mjs` and the runtime just needs to be
configured accordingly, i.e. running `ng-dev` with `ts-node` so that
the ESM loader can be wired up before Node's runtime starts (using e.g.
`node --loader`).
