Prior to this commit, i18n instructions (i18n, i18nStart) were generated before listener instructions. As a result, event listeners were attached to the wrong element (text node, not the parent element). This change updates the order of instructions and puts i18n ones after listeners, to make sure listeners are attached to the right elements.

For the template type checking to work correctly, it needs to know
what attributes are bound to expressions or directives, which may
require expressions in the template to be evaluated in a different
scope.
In inline templates, there are attributes that are now marked as
"Template" attributes. We need to ensure that the template
type checking code looks at these "bound" attributes as well as the
"input" attributes.

The content projection mechanism is static, in that it only looks at the static
template nodes before directives are matched and change detection is run.
When you have a selector-based content projection the selection is based
on nodes that are available in the template.
For example:
```
<ng-content selector="[some-attr]"></ng-content>
```
would match
```
<div some-attr="..."></div>
```
If you have an inline-template in your projected nodes. For example:
```
<div *ngIf="..." some-attr="..."></div>
```
This gets pre-parsed and converted to a canonical form.
For example:
```
<ng-template [ngIf]="...">
<div some-attr=".."></div>
</ng-template>
```
Note that only structural attributes (e.g. `*ngIf`) stay with the `<ng-template>`
node. The other attributes move to the contained element inside the template.
When this happens in ivy, the ng-template content is removed
from the component template function and is compiled into its own
template function. But this means that the information about the
attributes that were on the content are lost and the projection
selection mechanism is unable to match the original
`<div *ngIf="..." some-attr>`.
This commit adds support for this in ivy. Attributes are separated into three
groups (Bindings, Templates and "other"). For inline-templates the Bindings
and "other" types are hoisted back from the contained node to the `template()`
instruction, so that they can be used in content projection matching.

This commit adds a new `AttributeMarker` type that will be used, in a

Prior to this change, the RegExp that was used to check for dashes in field names used "g" (global) flag that retains lastIndex, which might result in skipping some fields that should be wrapped in quotes (since lastIndex advanced beyond the next "-" location). This commit removes this flag and updates the test to make sure there are no regressions.

ngtsc occasionally converts a type reference (such as the type of a
parameter in a constructor) to a value reference (argument to a
directiveInject call). TypeScript has a bad habit of sometimes removing
the import statement associated with this type reference, because it's a
type only import when it initially looks at the file.
A solution to this is to always add an import to refer to a type position
value that's imported, and not rely on the existing import.

Prior to this change, keys in "inputs" and "outputs" objects generated by compiler were not checked against unsafe characters. As a result, in some cases the generated code was throwing JS error. Now we check whether a given key contains any unsafe chars and wrap it in quotes if needed.

ngtsc has cyclic import detection, to determine when adding an import to a
directive or pipe would create a cycle. However, this detection must also
account for already inserted imports, as it's possible for both directions
of a circular import to be inserted by Ivy (as opposed to at least one of
those edges existing in the user's program).
This commit fixes the circular import detection for components to take into
consideration already added edges. This is difficult for one critical
reason: only edges to files which will *actually* be imported should be
considered. However, that depends on which directives & pipes are used in
a given template, which is currently only known by running the
TemplateDefinitionBuilder during the 'compile' phase. This is too late; the
decision whether to use remote scoping (which consults the import graph) is
made during the 'resolve' phase, before any compilation has taken place.
Thus, the only way to correctly consider synthetic edges is for the compiler
to know exactly which directives & pipes are used in a template during
'resolve'. There are two ways to achieve this:
1) refactor `TemplateDefinitionBuilder` to do its work in two phases, with
directive matching occurring as a separate step which can be performed
earlier.
2) use the `R3TargetBinder` in the 'resolve' phase to independently bind the
template and get information about used directives.
Option 1 is ideal, but option 2 is currently used for practical reasons. The
cost of binding the template can be shared with template-typechecking.
PR Close#29040
In the @Component decorator, the 'host' field is an object which represents
host bindings. The type of this field is complex, but is generally of the
form {[key: string]: string}. Several different kinds of bindings can be
specified, depending on the structure of the key.
For example:
```
@Component({
host: {'[prop]': 'someExpr'}
})
```
will bind an expression 'someExpr' to the property 'prop'. This is known to
be a property binding because of the square brackets in the binding key.
If the binding key is a plain string (no brackets or parentheses), then it
is known as an attribute binding. In this case, the right-hand side is not
interpreted as an expression, but is instead a constant string.
There is no actual requirement that at build time, these constant strings
are known to the compiler, but this was previously enforced as a side effect
of requiring the binding expressions for property and event bindings to be
statically known (as they need to be parsed). This commit breaks that
relationship and allows the attribute bindings to be dynamic. In the case
that they are dynamic, the references to the dynamic values are reflected
into the Ivy instructions for attribute bindings.

This change helps highlight certain misoptimizations with Closure
compiler. It is also stylistically preferable to consistently use index
access on index sig types.
Roughly, when one sees '.foo' they know it is always checked for typos
in the prop name by the type system (unless 'any'), while "['foo']" is
always not.
Once all angular repos are conforming this will become a tsetse.info
check, enforced by bazel.

Previously the start of a character indicated by an escape sequence
was being incorrectly computed by the lexer, which caused tokens
to include the start of the escaped character sequence in the
preceding token. In particular this affected the name extracted
from opening tags if the name was terminated by an escape sequence.
For example, `<t\n>` would have the name `t\` rather than `t`.
This fix refactors the lexer to use a "cursor" object to iterate over
the characters in the template source. There are two cursor implementations,
one expects a simple string, the other expects a string that contains
JavaScript escape sequences that need to be unescaped.

Prior to this change i18n block bindings were converted to Expressions right away (once we first access them), when in non-i18n cases we processed them differently: the actual conversion happens at instructions generation. Because of this discrepancy, the output for bindings in i18n blocks was generated incorrectly (with invalid indicies in pipeBindN fns and invalid references to non-existent local variables). Now the bindings processing is unified and i18nExp instructions should contain right bind expressions.

During build time we remap particular property bindings, because their names don't match their attribute equivalents (e.g. the property for the `for` attribute is called `htmlFor`). This breaks down if the particular element has an input that has the same name, because the property gets mapped to something invalid.
The following changes address the issue by mapping the name during runtime, because that's when directives are resolved and we know all of the inputs that are associated with a particular element.

would resolve before change detection.
Now if users add a `static: true` option, the query will be resolved in

Prior to this commit, the timing of `ViewChild`/`ContentChild` query
resolution depended on the results of each query. If any results
for a particular query were nested inside embedded views (e.g.
*ngIfs), that query would be resolved after change detection ran.
Otherwise, the query would be resolved as soon as nodes were created.
This inconsistency in resolution timing had the potential to cause
confusion because query results would sometimes be available in
ngOnInit, but sometimes wouldn't be available until ngAfterContentInit
or ngAfterViewInit. Code depending on a query result could suddenly
stop working as soon as an *ngIf or an *ngFor was added to the template.
With this commit, users can dictate when they want a particular
`ViewChild` or `ContentChild` query to be resolved with the `static`
flag. For example, one can mark a particular query as `static: false`
to ensure change detection always runs before its results are set:
```ts
@ContentChild('foo', {static: false}) foo !: ElementRef;
```
This means that even if there isn't a query result wrapped in an
*ngIf or an *ngFor now, adding one to the template later won't change
the timing of the query resolution and potentially break your component.
Similarly, if you know that your query needs to be resolved earlier
(e.g. you need results in an ngOnInit hook), you can mark it as
`static: true`.
```ts
@ViewChild(TemplateRef, {static: true}) foo !: TemplateRef;
```
Note: this means that your component will not support *ngIf results.
If you do not supply a `static` option when creating your `ViewChild` or
`ContentChild` query, the default query resolution timing will kick in.
Note: This new option only applies to `ViewChild` and `ContentChild`
queries, not `ViewChildren` or `ContentChildren` queries, as those types
already resolve after CD runs.

Accounts for schemas in when validating properties in Ivy.
This PR resolves FW-819.
A couple of notes:
* I had to rework the test slightly, in order to have it fail when we expect it to. The one in master is passing since Ivy's validation runs during the update phase, rather than creation.
* I had to deviate from the design in FW-819 and not add an `enableSchema` instruction, because the schema is part of the `NgModule` scope, however the scope is only assigned to a component once all of the module's declarations have been resolved and some of them can be async. Instead, I opted to have the `schemas` on the component definition.

In the past, @Injectable had no side effects and existing Angular code is
therefore littered with @Injectable usage on classes which are not intended
to be injected.
A common example is:
@Injectable()
class Foo {
constructor(private notInjectable: string) {}
}
and somewhere else:
providers: [{provide: Foo, useFactory: ...})
Here, there is no need for Foo to be injectable - indeed, it's impossible
for the DI system to create an instance of it, as it has a non-injectable
constructor. The provider configures a factory for the DI system to be
able to create instances of Foo.
Adding @Injectable in Ivy signifies that the class's own constructor, and
not a provider, determines how the class will be created.
This commit adds logic to compile classes which are marked with @Injectable
but are otherwise not injectable, and create an ngInjectableDef field with
a factory function that throws an error. This way, existing code in the wild
continues to compile, but if someone attempts to use the injectable it will
fail with a useful error message.
In the case where strictInjectionParameters is set to true, a compile-time
error is thrown instead of the runtime error, as ngtsc has enough
information to determine when injection couldn't possibly be valid.

With #28594 we refactored the `@angular/compiler` slightly to
allow opting out from external symbol re-exports which are
enabled by default.
Since symbol re-exports only benefit projects which have a
very strict dependency enforcement, external symbols should
not be re-exported by default as this could grow the size of
factory files and cause unexpected behavior with Angular's
AOT symbol resolving (e.g. see: #25644).
Note that the common strict dependency enforcement for source
files does still work with external symbol re-exports disabled,
but there are also strict dependency checks that enforce strict
module dependencies also for _generated files_ (such as the
ngfactory files). This is how Google3 manages it's dependencies
and therefore external symbol re-exports need to be enabled within
Google3.
Also "ngtsc" also does not provide any way of using external symbol
re-exports, so this means that with this change, NGC can partially
match the behavior of "ngtsc" then (unless explicitly opted-out).
As mentioned before, internally at Google symbol re-exports need to
be still enabled, so the `ng_module` Bazel rule will enable the symbol
re-exports by default when running within Blaze.

Previously, using a pipe in an input binding on an ng-template would
evaluate the pipe in the context of node that was processed before the
template. This caused the retrieval of e.g. ChangeDetectorRef to be
incorrect, resulting in one of the following bugs depending on the
template's structure:
1. If the template was at the root of a view, the previously processed
node would be the component's host node outside of the current view.
Accessing that node in the context of the current view results in a crash.
2. For templates not at the root, the ChangeDetectorRef injected into the
pipe would correspond with the previously processed node. If that node
hosts a component, the ChangeDetectorRef would not correspond with the
view that the ng-template is part of.
The solution to the above problem is two-fold:
1. Template compilation is adjusted such that the template instruction
is emitted before any instructions produced by input bindings, such as
pipes. This ensures that pipes are evaluated in the context of the
template's container node.
2. A ChangeDetectorRef can be requested for container nodes.

During analysis, the `ComponentDecoratorHandler` passes the component
template to the `parseTemplate()` function. Previously, there was little or
no information about the original source file, where the template is found,
passed when calling this function.
Now, we correctly compute the URL of the source of the template, both
for external `templateUrl` and in-line `template` cases. Further in the
in-line template case we compute the character range of the template
in its containing source file; *but only in the case that the template is
a simple string literal*. If the template is actually a dynamic value like
an interpolated string or a function call, then we do not try to add the
originating source file information.
The translator that converts Ivy AST nodes to TypeScript now adds these
template specific source mappings, which account for the file where
the template was found, to the templates to support stepping through the
template creation and update code when debugging an Angular application.
Note that some versions of TypeScript have a bug which means they cannot
support external template source-maps. We check for this via the
`canSourceMapExternalTemplates()` helper function and avoid trying to
add template mappings to external templates if not supported.

Previously the call to `extractSourceMap()` would only work if the

When testing JIT code, it is useful to be able to access the
generated JIT source. Previously this is done by spying on the
global `Function` object, to capture the code when it is being
evaluated. This is problematic because you can only capture
the body of the function, and not the arguments, which messes
up line and column positions for source mapping for instance.
Now the code that generates and then evaluates JIT code is
wrapped in a `JitEvaluator` class, making it possible to provide
a mock implementation that can capture the generated source of
the function passed to `executeFunction(fn: Function, args: any[])`.

In order to support source mapping of templates, we need
to be able to tokenize the template in its original context.
When the template is defined inline as a JavaScript string
in a TS/JS source file, the tokenizer must be able to handle
string escape sequences, such as `\n` and `\"` as they
appear in the original source file.
This commit teaches the lexer how to unescape these
sequences, but only when the `escapedString` option is
set to true. Otherwise there is no change to the tokenizing
behaviour.

The lexer that does the tokenizing can now process only a part the source
string, by passing a `range` property in the `options` argument. The
