chore(monorepo): reintegrate update nightly version

scripts/update-nightly-version.ts

+/**
+ * @module
+ *
+ * The nightly version works uses the version described in `package.json`, just like any release.
+ * The problem with this approach is that production builds have a very aggressive cache, and
+ * usually running the nightly with this cached version of the application will mean that the
+ * user might run into module not found errors or styling errors caused by an old cache.
+ *
+ * This script is supposed to be run in the CI, which will update locally the version field of
+ * `package.json` to contain the date. For example, `0.90.9-beta` will become `0.90.9-test-YYMMDD-HHMMSS`.
