ngcc's reflection host needs to be able to determine all members of a
class, which it does by using the `ts.Symbol` from TypeScript's
TypeChecker. Such Symbol however may represent multiple class members
in the case of accessors; an equally named getter/setter accessor pair
is combined into a single `ts.Symbol`.
This commit introduces logic to recognize such accessors in order for
both the getter and setter to be considered as class member, similar to
ngtsc's behavior when operating on original TypeScript code.
One difference wrt the TypeScript host is that ngcc cannot see to which
accessor originally had any decorators applied to them, as decorators
are applied to the property descriptor in general, not a specific accessor.
If an accessor has both a setter and getter, any decorators are only
attached to the setter member.

Prior to this change, accessor functions for getters and setters would
not be considered as class member, as their declaration is vastly
different from ES2015 syntax.
With this change, the ES5 reflection host has learned to recognize the
downleveled syntax for accessors, allowing for them to be considered as
class member once again.

A constructor function may have been "synthesized" by TypeScript during
JavaScript emit, in the case no user-defined constructor exists and e.g.
property initializers are used. Those initializers need to be emitted
into a constructor in JavaScript, so the TypeScript compiler generates a
synthetic constructor.
This commit adds identification of such constructors as ngcc needs to be
able to tell if a class did originally have a constructor in the
TypeScript source. When a class has a superclass, a synthesized
constructor must not be considered as a user-defined constructor as that
prevents a base factory call from being created by ngtsc, resulting in a
factory function that does not inject the dependencies of the superclass.
Hence, we identify a default synthesized super call in the constructor
body, according to the structure that TypeScript emits.

This refactoring moves code around between a few of the ngtsc subpackages,
with the goal of having a more logical package structure. Additional
interfaces are also introduced where they make sense.
The 'metadata' package formerly contained both the partial evaluator,
the TypeScriptReflectionHost as well as some other reflection functions,
and the Reference interface and various implementations. This package
was split into 3 parts.
The partial evaluator now has its own package 'partial_evaluator', and
exists behind an interface PartialEvaluator instead of a top-level
function. In the future this will be useful for reducing churn as the
partial evaluator becomes more complicated.
The TypeScriptReflectionHost and other miscellaneous functions have moved
into a new 'reflection' package. The former 'host' package which contained
the ReflectionHost interface and associated types was also merged into this
new 'reflection' package.
Finally, the Reference APIs were moved to the 'imports' package, which will
consolidate all import-related logic in ngtsc.

There are a number of variables that need to be passed around
the program, in particular to the renderers, which benefit from being
stored in well defined objects.
The new `EntryPointBundle` structure is a specific format of an entry-point
and contains the compiled `BundleProgram` objects for the source and typings,
if appropriate.
This change helps with future refactoring, where we may need to add new
properties to this object. It allows us to maintain more stable APIs between
the constituent parts of ngcc, rather than passing lots of primitive values
around throughout the program.

1) The `DecorationAnalyzer now analyzes all source files, rather than just
the entry-point files, which fixes#26183.
2) The `DecoratorAnalyzer` now runs all the `handler.analyze()` calls
across the whole entry-point *before* running `handler.compile()`. This
ensures that dependencies between the decorated classes *within* an
entry-point are known to the handlers when running the compile process.
3) The `Renderer` now does the transformation of the typings (.d.ts) files
which allows us to support packages that only have flat format
entry-points better, and is faster, since we won't parse `.d.ts` files twice.

Going forward we need to be able to do the same work on both
flat and non-flat module formats (such as computing arity and
transforming .d.ts files)

The most recent Angular distributions have begun to use __decorate instead of Class.decorators.
This prevents `ngcc` from recognizing the classes and then fails to perform the transform to
ivy format.
Example:
```
var ApplicationModule = /** @class */ (function () {
// Inject ApplicationRef to make it eager...
function ApplicationModule(appRef) {
}
ApplicationModule = __decorate([
NgModule({ providers: APPLICATION_MODULE_PROVIDERS }),
__metadata("design:paramtypes", [ApplicationRef])
], ApplicationModule);
return ApplicationModule;
}());
```
Now `ngcc` recognizes `__decorate([...])` declarations and performs its transform.
