fix(release): Pin CircleCI to Chrome v74

We can't upgrade the version of Selenium without transitioning off the
control flow and breaking a bunch of people. Chrome v75 introduced the
new W3C actions API. Unfortunately, we can't update to support that
API without introducing other breakages, so v74 is the last version
of Chrome that will work with Protractor 5.

You can download a Chrome v74 snapshot from https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromium-browser-snapshots/Linux_x64/638880/chrome-linux.zip

You might also need to pass "--no-sandbox" flag to Chrome
