Currently in Ivy whenever we encounter a new namespace, we set it in the global state so that all subsequent nodes are created under the same namespace. Next time a template is run the namespace will be reset back to HTML.
This breaks down if the last node that was rendered was under the SVG or MathML namespace and we create a component through `ViewContainerRef.create`, because the next template function hasn't run yet and it hasn't had the chance to update the namespace. The result is that the root node of the new component will retain the wrong namespace and may not end up rendering at all (e.g. if we're trying to show a `div` inside the SVG namespace). This issue has the potential to affect a lot of apps, because all components inserted through the router also go through `ViewContainerRef.create`.

The Angular runtime frequently calls into user code (for example, when
writing to a property binding). Since user code can throw errors, calls to
it are frequently wrapped in a try-finally block. In Ivy, the following
pattern is common:
```typescript
enterView();
try {
callUserCode();
} finally {
leaveView();
}
```
This has a significant problem, however: `leaveView` has a side effect: it
calls any pending lifecycle hooks that might've been scheduled during the
current round of change detection. Generally it's a bad idea to run
lifecycle hooks after the application has crashed. The application is in an
inconsistent state - directives may not be instantiated fully, queries may
not be resolved, bindings may not have been applied, etc. Invariants that
the app code relies upon may not hold. Further crashes or broken behavior
are likely.
Frequently, lifecycle hooks are used to make assertions about these
invariants. When these assertions fail, they will throw and "swallow" the
original error, making debugging of the problem much more difficult.
This commit modifies `leaveView` to understand whether the application is
currently crashing, via a parameter `safeToRunHooks`. This parameter is set
by modifying the above pattern:
```typescript
enterView();
let safeToRunHooks = false;
try {
callUserCode();
safeToRunHooks = true;
} finally {
leaveView(..., safeToRunHooks);
}
```
If `callUserCode` crashes, then `safeToRunHooks` will never be set to `true`
and `leaveView` won't call any further user code. The original error will
then propagate back up the stack and be reported correctly. A test is added
to verify this behavior.

In ViewEngine injecting a Renderer2 returns a renderer that is specific to the particular component, however in Ivy we inject the renderer for the parent view instead. This causes it to set incorrect `ngcontent` attributes when creating elements through the renderer.
The issue comes from the fact that the `Renderer2` is created according to the current `LView`, but because DI happens before we've entered the `LView` of the component that's injecting the renderer, we end up with one that's one level up. We work around the issue by finding the `LView` that corresponds to the `previousOrParentTNode` inside of the parent view and associating the `Renderer2` with it.

Previously, multiple ViewContainerRef instances (obtained by injecting
ViewContainerRef multiple times) each had private state that could be out of
sync with actual LContainer, if views were inserted/removed/queried across
the different instances. In particular each instance had its own array which
tracked ViewRefs inserted via that instance.
This commit moves the ViewRefs array onto the LContainer itself, so that it
can be shared across multiple ViewContainerRef instances. A test is added
that verifies ViewContainerRefs now provide a consistent view of the
container.

To provide some context: The implicit receiver is part of the
parsed Angular template AST. Any property reads in bindings,
interpolations etc. read from a given object (usually the component
instance). In that case there is an _implicit_ receiver which can also
be specified explicitly by just using `this`.
e.g.
```html
<ng-template>{{this.myProperty}}</ng-template>
```
This works as expected in Ivy and View Engine, but breaks in case the
implicit receiver is not used for property reads. For example:
```html
<my-dir [myFn]="greetFn.bind(this)"></my-dir>
```
In that case the `this` will not be properly translated into the generated
template function code because the Ivy compiler currently always treats
the `ctx` variable as the implicit receiver. This is **not correct** and breaks
compatibility with View Engine. Rather we need to ensure that we retrieve
the root context for the standalone implicit receiver similar to how it works
for property reads (as seen in the example above with `this.myProperty`)
Note that this requires some small changes to the `expression_converter`
because we only want to generate the `eenextContent()` instruction if the
implicit receiver is _actually_ used/needed. View Engine determines if that is the case by recursively walking through the converted output AST and
checking for usages of the `o.variable('_co')` variable ([see here][ve_check]). This would work too for Ivy, but involves most likely more code duplication
since templates are isolated in different functions and it another pass
through the output AST for every template expression.

`TView.firstChild` was defined as the first node with index 0, but when we use runtime i18n then the instruction `i18nStart` can be the one with index 0 and the first node will be index 1 or more.

When translated content was projected, all of the content was reappended, even the placeholders that had been removed in the translation.

Added a new syntax for projections (`¤` will represent `ng-content` nodes) so that we can treat them specifically.
When we enter an i18n block with the instruction `i18nStart`, a new `delayProjection` variable is set to true to prevent the instruction `projection` from projecting the nodes. Once we reach the `i18nEnd` instruction and encounter a projection in the translation we will project its nodes.
If a projection was removed from a translation, then its nodes won't be projected at all.
The variable `delayProjection` is restored to `false` at the end of `i18nEnd` so that it doesn't stop projections outside of i18n blocks.

With View engine it was possible to declare multiple projection
definitions and to programmatically project nodes into the slots.
e.g.
```html
<ng-content></ng-content>
<ng-content></ng-content>
```
Using `ViewContainerRef#createComponent` allowed projecting
nodes into one of the projection defs (through index)
This no longer works with Ivy as the `projectionDef` instruction only
retrieves a list of selectors instead of also retrieving entries for
reserved projection slots which appear when using the default
selector multiple times (as seen above).
In order to fix this issue, the Ivy compiler now passes all
projection slots to the `projectionDef` instruction. Meaning that
there can be multiple projection slots with the same wildcard
selector. This allows multi-slot projection as seen in the
example above, and it also allows us to match the multi-slot node
projection order from View Engine (to avoid breaking changes).
It basically ensures that Ivy fully matches the View Engine behavior
except of a very small edge case that has already been discussed
in FW-886 (with the conclusion of working as intended).

Plural ICU expressions depend on the locale (different languages have different plural forms). Until now the locale was hard coded as `en-US`.
For compatibility reasons, if you use ivy with AOT and bootstrap your app with `bootstrapModule` then the `LOCALE_ID` token will be set automatically for ivy, which is then used to get the correct plural form.
If you use JIT, you need to define the `LOCALE_ID` provider on the module that you bootstrap.
For `TestBed` you can use either `configureTestingModule` or `overrideProvider` to define that provider.
If you don't use the compat mode and start your app with `renderComponent` you need to call `ɵsetLocaleId` manually to define the `LOCALE_ID` before bootstrap. We expect this to change once we start adding the new i18n APIs, so don't rely on this function (there's a reason why it's a private export).

With Ivy, injecting a `ViewContainerRef` for a `<ng-container>` element
results in two comments generated in the DOM. One comment as host
element for the `ElementContainer` and one for the generated `LContainer`
which is needed for the created `ViewContainerRef`.
This is problematic as developers expect the same anchor element for
the `LContainer` and the `ElementContainer` in order to be able to move
the host element of `<ng-container>` without leaving the actual
`LContainer` anchor element at the original location.
This worked differently in View Engine and various applications might
depend on the behavior where the `ViewContainerRef` shares the anchor
comment node with the host comment node of the `<ng-container>`. For
example `CdkTable` from `@angular/cdk` moves around the host element of
a `<ng-container>` and also expects embedded views to be inserted next
to the moved `<ng-container>` host element.
