Prior to this commit, we had two different modes for change detection
execution for Ivy, depending on whether you called `bootstrap()` or
`renderComponent()`. In the former case, we would complete creation
mode for all components in the tree before beginning update mode for
any component. In the latter case, we would run creation mode and
update mode together for each component individually.
Maintaining code to support these two different execution orders was
unnecessarily complex, so this commit aligns the two bootstrapping
mechanisms to execute in the same order. Now creation mode always
runs for all components before update mode begins.
This change also simplifies our rendering logic so that we use
`LView` flags as the source of truth for rendering mode instead of
`rf` function arguments. This fixed some related bugs (e.g. calling
`ViewRef.detectChanges` synchronously after the view's creation
would create view nodes twice, view queries would execute twice, etc).

We invoked `hostBindings` function in Create and Update modes with different element index due to the fact that we did not subtract HEADER_OFFSET from the index before passing it to `hostBindings` function in Create mode. Now we subtract HEADER_OFFSET value before invoking `hostBindings`, which makes Ceate and Update calls consistent.

BREAKING CHANGE:
The public API for `DebugNode` was accidentally too broad. This change removes
1. Public constructor. Since `DebugNode` is a way for Angular to communicate information
on to the developer there is no reason why the developer should ever need to
Instantiate the `DebugNode`
2. We are also removing `removeChild`, `addChild`, `insertBefore`, and `insertChildAfter`.
All of these methods are used by Angular to constructor the correct `DebugNode` tree.
There is no reason why the developer should ever be constructing a `DebugNode` tree
And these methods should have never been made public.
3. All properties have been change to `readonly` since `DebugNode` is used by Angular
to communicate to developer and there is no reason why these APIs should be writable.
While technically breaking change we don’t expect anyone to be effected by this change.

Previously in Ivy, metadata for directives/components/modules/etc was
carried in .d.ts files inside type information encoded on the
DirectiveDef, ComponentDef, NgModuleDef, etc types of Ivy definition
fields. This works well, but has the side effect of complicating Ivy's
runtime code as these extra generic type parameters had to be specified
as <any> throughout the codebase. *DefInternal types were introduced
previously to mitigate this issue, but that's the wrong way to solve
the problem.
This commit returns *Def types to their original form, with no metadata
attached. Instead, new *DefWithMeta types are introduced that alias the
plain definition types and add extra generic parameters. This way the
only code that needs to deal with the extra metadata parameters is the
compiler code that reads and writes them - the existence of this metadata
is transparent to the runtime, as it should be.

Create getter methods `getXXXDef` for each definition which
uses `hasOwnProperty` to verify that we don't accidently read form the
parent class.

This change supports compilation of components, directives, and modules
within ngtsc. Support is not complete, but is enough to compile and test
//packages/core/test/bundling/todo in full AOT mode. Code size benefits
are not yet achieved as //packages/core itself does not get compiled, and
some decorators (e.g. @Input) are not stripped, leading to unwanted code
being retained by the tree-shaker. This will be improved in future commits.

Ivy definition looks something like this:
```
class MyService {
static ngInjectableDef = defineInjectable({
…
});
}
```
Here the argument to `defineInjectable` is well known public contract which needs
to be honored in backward compatible way between versions. The type of the
return value of `defineInjectable` on the other hand is private and can change
shape drastically between versions without effecting backwards compatibility of
libraries publish to NPM. To our users it is effectively an `OpaqueToken`.
By prefixing the type with `ɵ` we are communicating the the outside world that
the value is not public API and is subject to change without backward compatibility.
