* Switches away from the ESM-incompatible & unmaintained `ts_devserver`
to `http_server`. This is the canonical server maintained by dev-infra
* Switches tests away from CommonJS specific logic. e.g. require.resolve
* Adjusts tests to work with Protractor spec bundling (Protractor does
not support ESM execution, but we want to take ESM-written specs)
* Reworks playground and benchmarks to use `app_bundle` and `esbuild`
instead of loading hundreds of files individually. This also makes
tests more stable and more aligned with real applications.

Currently all playground examples are built with `tsc`
and served with the `gulp serve` task. In order to be able
to test these examples easily with Ivy, we now build and
serve the examples using Bazel. This allows us to expand our
Ivy test coverage and additionally it allows us to move forward
with the overall Bazel migration. Building & serving individual
examples is now very easy and doesn't involve building everything
inside of `/modules`.
