Since Karma with Bazel does not support ESM natively, we bundle the
tests using ESBuild into a single AMD file. This not only solves the
ESM issue until we can run browser ESM tests natively (also pending
in the components repo - the esbuild generation follows ESM semantics
but since collapsed we don't rely on the real module system).
A benefit of bundling is also faster and more reliable Karma browser
tests since only a single file needs to be loaded- compared to hundreds
of individual files.

Since we no properly initialize as part of the spec-entrypoint
the hacky logic starting Jasmine can be removed. The init
file now runs before tests run, but after Jasmine is initialized.
Calling `boot` while Jasmine is already initialized results in
tests executing in a different context and before other
initialization work completes.

Note: `--require` does not work for ESM. `--import` does not exist
in the current Node versions. Started being available in NodeJS v19.
A custom entry-point script, already supported by dev-infra, simplifies
the whole logic and solves the ESM case.
