In a more specific scenario: Considering people use a custom TypeScript compiler host with `NGC`, they _could_ expect only posix paths in methods like `writeFile`. This at first glance sounds like a trivial issue that should be just fixed by the actual compiler host, but usually TypeScript internal API's just pass around posix normalized paths, and therefore it would be good to follow the same standards when passing JSON genfiles to the `CompilerHost`.
For normal TypeScript files (and TS genfiles), this is already consistent because those will be handled by the actual TypeScript `Program` (see `emitCallback`).

Originally, the ivy_switch mechanism used Bazel genrules to conditionally
compile one TS file or another depending on whether ngc or ngtsc was the
selected compiler. This was done because we wanted to avoid importing
certain modules (and thus pulling them into the build) if Ivy was on or
off. This mechanism had a major drawback: ivy_switch became a bottleneck
in the import graph, as it both imports from many places in the codebase
and is imported by many modules in the codebase. This frequently resulted
in cyclic imports which caused issues both with TS and Closure compilation.
It turns out ngcc needs both code paths in the bundle to perform the switch
during its operation anyway, so import switching was later abandoned. This
means that there's no real reason why the ivy_switch mechanism needed to
operate at the Bazel level, and for the ivy_switch file to be a bottleneck.
This commit removes the Bazel-level ivy_switch mechanism, and introduces
an additional TypeScript transform in ngtsc (and the pass-through tsc
compiler used for testing JIT) to perform the same operation that ngcc
does, and flip the switch during ngtsc compilation. This allows the
ivy_switch file to be removed, and the individual switches to be located
directly next to their consumers in the codebase, greatly mitigating the
circular import issues and making the mechanism much easier to use.
As part of this commit, the tag for marking switched variables was changed
from __PRE_NGCC__ to __PRE_R3__, since it's no longer just ngcc which
flips these tags. Most variables were renamed from R3_* to SWITCH_* as well,
since they're referenced mostly in render2 code.
Test strategy: existing test coverage is more than sufficient - if this
didn't work correctly it would break the hello world and todo apps.

static ngTypeCtor<T>(init: Partial<Pick<Directive<T>, 'someInput'>>): Directive<T>;

function and use it to create an instance of the subclass.
For @Injectables with configured providers, the factory function is
of the form:
factory: (t?) => t ? constructorInject(t) : provider();

naturally declared constructor of the type, and where provider()
creates an instance of the base type using the special declared

There is a bug in the existing handling for cross-file references.
Suppose there are two files, module.ts and component.ts.
component.ts declares two components, one of which uses the other.
In the Ivy model, this means the component will get a directives:
reference to the other in its defineComponent call.
That reference is generated by looking at the declared components
of the module (in module.ts). However, the way ngtsc tracks this
reference, it ends up comparing the identifier of the component
in module.ts with the component.ts file, detecting they're not in
the same file, and generating a relative import.

including the one by which it is declared. This allows toExpression()

was imported, ngtsc has a choice. It can use the identifier from the
original import, or it can write a new import to the module where the
type came from.
ngtsc has a bug currently when it elects to rely on the user's import.
When writing a .d.ts file, the user's import may have been elided as
the type was not referred to from the type side of the program. Thus,
in .d.ts files ngtsc must always assume the import may not exist, and
generate a new one.
In .js output the import is guaranteed to still exist, so it's
preferable for ngtsc to continue using the existing import if one is
available.
This commit changes how @angular/compiler writes type definitions, and
allows it to use a different expression to write a type definition than
is used to write the value. This allows ngtsc to specify that types in
type definitions should always be imported. A corresponding change to
the staticallyResolve() Reference system allows the choice of which
type of import to use when generating an Expression from a Reference.

@ContentChild[ren] and @ViewChild[ren] can contain a forwardRef() to a
type. This commit allows ngtsc to unwrap the forward reference and
deal with the node inside.
It includes two modes of support for forward reference resolution -
a foreign function resolver which understands deeply nested forward
references in expressions that are being statically evaluated, and
an unwrapForwardRef() function which deals only with top-level nodes.
Both will be useful in the future, but for now only unwrapForwardRef()
is used.

Ivy definition types have a generic type which specifies the return
type of the factory function. For example:
static ngDirectiveDef<NgForOf, '[ngFor][ngForOf]'>
However, in this case NgForOf itself has a type parameter <T>. Thus,
writing the above is incorrect.
This commit modifies ngtsc to understand the genericness of NgForOf and
to write the following:
static ngDirectiveDef<NgForOf<any>, '[ngFor][ngForOf]'>

Previously ngtsc would use a tuple of class types for listing metadata
in .d.ts files. For example, an @NgModule's declarations might be
represented with the type:
[NgIf, NgForOf, NgClass]
If the module had no declarations, an empty tuple [] would be produced.
This has two problems.
1. If the class type has generic type parameters, TypeScript will
complain that they're not provided.
2. The empty tuple type is not actually legal.
This commit addresses both problems.
1. Class types are now represented using the `typeof` operator, so the
above declarations would be represented as:
[typeof NgIf, typeof NgForOf, typeof NgClass].
Since typeof operates on a value, it doesn't require generic type
arguments.
2. Instead of an empty tuple, `never` is used to indicate no metadata.

This commit moves the compiler compliance tests into compiler-cli,
and uses ngtsc to run them instead of the custom compilation
pipeline used before. Testing against ngtsc allows for validation
of the real compiler output.
This commit also fixes a few small issues that prevented the tests
from passing.

Previously, when translating an assignment expression (e.g. x = 3), the
translator would always print the statement as X = Y. However, if the
expression is included in a larger expression (X = (Y = Z)), the
translator would print "X = Y = Z" without regard for the outer
expression context.
Now, the translator understands when it's printing an expression
statement (X = Y;) vs an expression in a larger context (X = (Y = Z);)
and encapsulates the latter in parentheses.

Previously, references had the concept of an identifier, but would not
properly detect whether the identifier should be used or not when
generating an expression. This change fixes that logic.
Additionally, now whenever an identifier resolves to a reference (even
one imported from another module) as part of resolving an expression,
the reference is updated to use that identifier. This ensures that for
a class Foo declared in foo.ts, but referenced in an expression in
bar.ts, the Reference returned includes the identifier from bar.ts,
meaning that writing an expression in bar.ts for the Reference will not
generate an import.

Previously ngtsc had a bug where it would only detect the presence of
ngOnChanges as a static method. This commit flips the condition and only
recognizes ngOnChanges as a non-static method.

Previously, the static resolver did its own interpretation of statements
in the TypeScript AST, which only functioned on TypeScript code. ES5
code in particular would not work with the resolver as it had hard-coded
assumptions about AST structure.
This commit changes the resolver to use a ReflectionHost instead, which
abstracts away understanding of the structural side of the AST. It adds 3
new methods to the ReflectionHost in support of this functionality:
* getDeclarationOfIdentifier
* getExportsOfModule
* isClass

This change adds support for host bindings to ngtsc, and parses them
both from decorators and from the metadata in the top-level annotation.

@NgModule()s get compiled to two fields: ngModuleDef and ngInjectorDef.
Both fields contain imports, as both selector scopes and injectors have
the concept of composed units of configuration. Previously these fields
were generated by static resolution of imports and exports in metadata.
Support for ModuleWithProviders requires they be generated differently.
ngModuleDef's imports/exports are generated as resolved lists of types,
whereas ngInjectorDef's imports should reflect the raw expressions that
the developer wrote in the metadata.
This change modifies the NgModule handler and properly copies raw nodes
for the imports and exports into the ngInjectorDef.
PR Close#24862
Previously ngtsc had a few bugs handling special token types:
* Injector was not properly translated to INJECTOR
* ChangeDetectorRef was not injected via injectChangeDetectorRef()
This commit fixes these two bugs, and also adds a test to ensure
they continue to work correctly.

Within an @NgModule it's common to include in the imports a call to
a ModuleWithProviders function, for example RouterModule.forRoot().
The old ngc compiler was able to handle this pattern because it had
global knowledge of metadata of not only the input compilation unit
but also all dependencies.
The ngtsc compiler for Ivy doesn't have this knowledge, so the
pattern of ModuleWithProviders functions is more difficult. ngtsc
must be able to determine which module is imported via the function
in order to expand the selector scope and properly tree-shake
directives and pipes.
This commit implements a solution to this problem, by adding a type
parameter to ModuleWithProviders through which the actual module
type can be passed between compilation units.
The provider side isn't a problem because the imports are always
copied directly to the ngInjectorDef.

Metadata in Ivy must be literal. For example,
@NgModule({...})
is legal, whereas
const meta = {...};
@NgModule(meta)
is not.
However, some code contains additional superfluous parentheses:
@NgModule(({...}))
It is desirable that ngtsc accept this form of literal object.

This commit changes the @NgModule provider to understand that sometimes
an import will resolve to an object instead of a type, and that object
could be of the ModuleWithProviders type. In that case, the 'ngModule'
property is read, and its value used instead.
This still will not handle ModuleWithProviders references across
compilation units; that work is coming in a future PR.
