We used to have this historically due to bots which were running on
Node.js 14. Node.js 14 was shipping NPM 7 back in the days.
Now all bots are on >= Node.js 16 so we can remove this legacy code.
Since yesterday all our windows bots are dying while trying to
install npm@8.
Turns out this is due to recent release of npm@8.4. This patch
moves our CI to use npm@8.3

This reverts commit a25b11659be8887b700311180fcd3653aa9e472b.
In a discussion with Dmitry Gozman we decided to revert this and instead
proceed with the following approach:
- rename `//browser_patches/firefox` to `//browser_patches/firefox-beta`
- rename `//browser_patches/firefox-stable` folder to
`//browser_patches/firefox`
In all of the folders, we will keep the `BUILD_NUMBER` original so that
it doesn't clash on the CDN.
This patch:
- starts downloading Firefox Stable equivalent by default
- starts running Firefox-Stable on our smoke tests (tests-1)
- starts running Firefox-Beta on our CQ1 tests (tests-2)
Note: there's a little confusion right now with browser names:
- `firefox-stable` - firefox-stable equivalent
- `firefox`- firefox-beta equivalent
I'll rename `firefox` to `firefox-beta` in a follow-up.
Fixes#6817
This patch:
- starts publishing canary NPM package at 00:10AM UTC
- canary version is published from default (`master`) branch and is
named with a date. E.g. for a version published on Feb 5, 2021, the
version would be `1.8.0-alpha-feb-5-2021`
- versions from release branches are still published on every commit and have the
regular commit timestamp suffix
Relates #3258
After a chat with @aslushnikov we add this in two iterations. The first one (this PR) is about scheduled runs for testing the latest tip-of-tree version of the browsers daily and the next PR is about opening an automated PRs once its passing (not sure if its worth to add for failing too) or sending Telegram/Slack notifications.
Current status is that Firefox (around 2 hours) and WebKit (around 3-4 hours) works.
Known issues which I fix before we merge:
- ~~Changes in `test/base.fixture.ts` will get extracted in #3453~~
Feel free to review, current blockers are before we can merge:
- ~~#3453~~
- potential git clone optimisation by aslushnikov
We now commit protocol.ts files during the roll.
New utils/roll_browser.js helps with that.
This makes our installation very shallow:
- build installer;
- download browsers.
We need to commit `package-lock.json` to repository to ensure
reproducible builds.
This also starts using [`npm ci`](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/ci.html) to
install dependencies.
Drive-by: remove non-functioning `rebase` workflow.
