When using `createEmbeddedView` after the creation of an ICU expression, the nodes for the current selected case were not reprojected (only the anchor comment node was moved to the new location).
Now we reproject correctly all the child nodes of an ICU expression when an anchor comment node is projected.

`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.
With this fix we set `TView.firstChild` when we see the first node with index 0 or later if `TView.firstChild` is still null.

A directive input that doesn't use a binding is triggered during the creation phase. But this was only executed at the first template pass, and not on subsequent ones.
Now only the creation of the update instruction is executed on the first template pass, anything else is executed every time a template is created.

When translated content was projected, all of the content was reappended, even the placeholders that had been removed in the translation.
To avoid that we added a new flag on `TNode` that specifies that a node is detached, in which case it should be ignored by the projection.

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.

We used to ignore empty strings for optimization purposes, but it turns out that empty strings are also valid values for ICU cases and we shouldn't ignore those.

Projecting bare ICU expressions failed because we would assume that component's content nodes would be projected later and doing so at that point would be wasteful. But ICU nodes are handled independently and should be inserted immediately because they will be ignored by projections.

Changed runtime i18n to define attributes with bindings, or matching directive inputs/outputs as element properties as we are supposed to do in Angular.
This PR fixes the issue where directive inputs wouldn't be trigged.

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).

Depending on which placeholders the translation uses, there are some legitimate cases where we might not use all placeholder replacements in `i18nPostprocess`. For example if some of the placeholders of the original messages have been removed in the translation.

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.

Prior to this change we processed binding expression (including bindings with pipes) in i18n attributes before we generate update instruction. As a result, slot offsets for pipeBind instructions were calculated incorrectly. Now we perform binding expression processing when we generate "update block" instructions, so offsets are calculated correctly.
