Often the types of an `@Input`'s field don't fully reflect the types of
assignable values. This can happen when an input has a getter/setter pair
where the getter always returns a narrow type, and the setter coerces a
wider value down to the narrow type.
For example, you could imagine an input of the form:
```typescript
@Input() get value(): string {
return this._value;
}
set value(v: {toString(): string}) {
this._value = v.toString();
}
```
Here, the getter always returns a `string`, but the setter accepts any value
that can be `toString()`'d, and coerces it to a string.
Unfortunately TypeScript does not actually support this syntax, and so
Angular users are forced to type their setters as narrowly as the getters,
even though at runtime the coercion works just fine.
To support these kinds of patterns (e.g. as used by Material), this commit
adds a compiler feature called "input coercion". When a binding is made to
the 'value' input of a directive like MatInput, the compiler will look for a
static function with the name ngCoerceInput_value. If such a function is
found, the type-checking expression for the input will be wrapped in a call
to the function, allowing for the expression of a type conversion between
the binding expression and the value being written to the input's field.
To solve the case above, for example, MatInput might write:
```typescript
class MatInput {
// rest of the directive...
static ngCoerceInput_value(value: {toString(): string}): string {
return null!;
}
}
```

As a hack to get the Ivy compiler ngtsc off the ground, the existing
'allowEmptyCodegenFiles' option was used to control generation of ngfactory
and ngsummary shims during compilation. This option was selected since it's
enabled in google3 but never enabled in external projects.
As ngtsc is now mature and the role shims play in compilation is now better
understood across the ecosystem, this commit introduces two new compiler
options to control shim generation:
* generateNgFactoryShims controls the generation of .ngfactory shims.
* generateNgSummaryShims controls the generation of .ngsummary shims.
The 'allowEmptyCodegenFiles' option is still honored if either of the above
flags are not set explicitly.

Resubmit #31168 now that google3 tests can pass. This requires http://cl/272696717 to be patched.
Original description from jasonaden:
Without this change when using UrlTree redirects in urlUpdateStrategy="eager", the URL would get
updated to the target location, then redirected. This resulted in having an additional entry in the
history and thus the back button would be broken (going back would land on the URL causing a new
redirect).
Additionally, there was a bug where the redirect, even without urlUpdateStrategy="eager", could
create a history with too many entries. This was due to kicking off a new navigation within the
navigation cancelling logic. With this PR the new navigation is pushed to the next tick with a
setTimeout, allowing the page being redirected from to be cancelled before starting a new
navigation.

Until now, the template type checker has not checked any of the event
bindings that could be present on an element, for example
```
<my-cmp
(changed)="handleChange($event)"
(click)="handleClick($event)"></my-cmp>
```
has two event bindings: the `change` event corresponding with an
`@Output()` on the `my-cmp` component and the `click` DOM event.
This commit adds functionality to the template type checker in order to
type check both kind of event bindings. This means that the correctness
of the bindings expressions, as well as the type of the `$event`
variable will now be taken into account during template type checking.

In ES5 modules, the class declarations consist of an IIFE with inner
and outer declarations that represent the class. The `EsmReflectionHost`
has logic to ensure that `getDeclarationOfIdentifier()` always returns the
outer declaration.
Before this commit, if an identifier referred to an alias of the inner
declaration, then `getDeclarationOfIdentifier()` was failing to find
the outer declaration - instead returning the inner declaration.
Now the identifier is correctly resolved up to the outer declaration
as expected.
This should fix some of the failing 3rd party packages discussed in
https://github.com/angular/ngcc-validation/issues/57.

This commit removes `@angular-devkit/build-angular` from package.json
for a project that opts into Bazel. This is because the package adds a

This commit also appends to `scripts.postinstall` if it already exists.
This is needed because `ng new` in CLI v9 now automatically adds a
postinstall step for `ngcc`.

This commit fixes ngtsc's import generator to use the ReflectionHost when
looking through the exports of an ES module to find the export of a
particular declaration that's being imported. This is necessary because
some module formats like CommonJS have unusual export mechanics, and the
normal TypeScript ts.TypeChecker does not understand them.
This fixes an issue with ngcc + CommonJS where exports were not being
enumerated correctly.

In the ReflectionHost API, a 'viaModule' indicates that a particular value
originated in another absolute module. It should always be 'null' for values
originating in relatively-imported modules.
This commit fixes a bug in the CommonJsReflectionHost where viaModule would

statements to be generated during compilation.
A test is added to verify the correct behavior.

Prior to this fix if a map-based class or style binding wrote
its values onto an elemenent, the internal styling context would
not register the binding if the initial value as a `NO_CHANGE`
value. This situation occurs if a directive takes control of the
`class` or `style` input values and then returns a `NO_CHANGE` value
if the initial value is empty.
This patch ensures that all bindings are always registered with the
`TStylingContext` data-structure even if their initial value is
an instance of `NO_CHANGE`.

Previously, when `ngcc` was reflecting on class members it did not
account for the fact that a member could be of the kind
`IndexSignature`. This can happen, for example, on abstract classes (as
is the case for [JsonCallbackContext][1]).
Trying to reflect on such members (and failing to recognize their kind),
resulted in warnings, such as:
```
Warning: Unknown member type: "[key: string]: (data: any) => void;
```
While these warnings are harmless, they can be confusing and worrisome
for users.
This commit avoids such warnings by detecting class members of the
`IndexSignature` kind and ignoring them.

Slower:

Faster:
````
const state = {
count: 0
};
function increment() {

Prior to this commit, all `className` inputs were not set because the runtime code assumed that the `classMap` instruction is only generated for `[class]` bindings. However the `[className]` binding also produces the same `classMap`, thus the code needs to distinguish between `class` and `className`.

This change assures that data structures related to initial inputs
(ones set from static attributes) are created only once (during the
first template pass) and no additional runtime checks are done for
subsequent passes.
Additionally this commit changes the data structure used by initial inputs
on TNode - previously initial inputs for a directive were stored at the
directive index in LView. This meant that an array holding initial inputs
was relativelly big and had many null elements (as placeholders for elements,
directives, injector etc.). After the change we only create an array of a size
equal to a number of directives matched on a given TNode.
For the `directive_instantiate` benchmark it boils to allocating a 1-element
array vs. 100-element array previously.
