Describe the problem that is addressed by this PR

Existing smoke tests use fixed sample .tsp files, which cannot detect real
regressions when @azure-tools/typespec-ts is updated. We need a pipeline
that regenerates real ARM SDK packages against the latest emitter and
surfaces breaking changes early.

What are the possible designs available to address the problem?

Adds eng/pipelines/typespec-break-check.yml and supporting scripts:

  • Discover ARM packages via spec-index (with tsp-location.yaml fallback)
  • Matrix-parallel regenerate + build verification
  • API surface diff (breaking / potentially breaking / additive / moved)
    comparing previous emitter vs current emitter
  • Optional automated PR with the generated changes (full diff or only
    api.md review files)

Are there test cases added in this PR?

No — this PR adds a CI pipeline and its supporting scripts; the pipeline
itself is the test harness.

- New script: eng/pipelines/scripts/breaking-change-detector.js
  - Parses api.md files (generated by API Extractor) into structured API maps
  - Compares baseline (git) vs current api.md to detect:
    - Removed exports, members, enum values (breaking)
    - Signature changes, type changes (potentially breaking)
    - Optional→required changes (breaking)
    - Added required interface members (breaking for implementors)
    - Added exports, optional members (additive/safe)
  - Handles deleted api.md files as full API removal
  - Supports --baseline SHA, --no-fail, --verbose flags
- Updated both YAML pipelines to run Step 6 after build

Pull request overview

This PR introduces a new Azure Pipelines workflow to proactively detect TypeSpec emitter regressions for ARM (management-plane) JS SDKs by regenerating packages against a newer @azure-tools/typespec-ts and reporting build/API-surface diffs.

Changes:

  • Added a new typespec-break-check pipeline that (1) resolves an emitter version, (2) regenerates ARM packages in a matrix, (3) runs build verification, (4) summarizes results, and (optionally) opens an automated PR with generated diffs.
  • Added two supporting Node scripts: a regeneration/build runner and an API-surface breaking-change detector for review/*.api.md.
  • Updated the emitter toolchain inputs (eng/emitter-package*.json) and enhanced the matrix-splitting script with a MaxPackages cap.

It would be better to change the filename, for example, to "sdk-regenerate," similar to how the Go pipeline file is named.

I would prefer to avoid service-specific logic, as it makes the code harder to maintain. Could you clarify why we are setting different timeouts for various packages, or why a timeout is necessary?

If a package already contains a tsp-location.yaml file, why not use it to generate the SDK directly? If the tsp-location.yaml is invalid or the SDK generation fails with this file, we could simply display a warning message and move on.

I am wondering if this method is needed. I recall that we don't have to specify the api-version in the tspconfig.yaml file explicitly to change the api-version. Also, could you try generating the SDKs with tsp-location.yaml using the default api-version (without specifying anything) and check how many SDKs have their api-versions changed? If it's only a few, we may not need this extra step.

Why do we need this detector? There is already logic in @azure-tools/js-sdk-release-tools, which is what populates the "Breaking Changes" sections of every ARM SDK's CHANGELOG.md today. I think the CHANGELOG.md diff in the PR should be sufficient.
