Split the tsconfig file into a base and build variant.

Lesson: This lesson is stored here and not in a comment in tsconfig.json because JSON doesn't like comments. Doug Crockford's purity requirement has doomed an entire generation to keeping its human-facing meta somewhere other than in the file where it belongs.

Lesson: The extend command of tsconfig has an unexpected behavior. It is neither a merge or a replace, but some mixture of the two. The buildfile's compilerOptions is not a full replacement; instead, each of its top-level fields is a replacement for what is found in the basefile. So while you don't need to include everything in a compilerOptions field if you want to change one thing, if you want to modify one path in compilerOptions.path, you must include the entire compilerOptions.path collection in your buildfile. g
