Prior to this change, the unary + and - operators would be parsed as `x - 0`
and `0 - x` respectively. The runtime semantics of these expressions are
equivalent, however they may introduce inaccurate template type checking
errors as the literal type is lost, for example:
```ts
@Component({
template: `<button [disabled]="isAdjacent(-1)"></button>`
})
export class Example {
isAdjacent(direction: -1 | 1): boolean { return false; }
}
```
would incorrectly report a type-check error:
> error TS2345: Argument of type 'number' is not assignable to parameter
of type '-1 | 1'.
Additionally, the translated expression for the unary + operator would be
considered as arithmetic expression with an incompatible left-hand side:
> error TS2362: The left-hand side of an arithmetic operation must be of
type 'any', 'number', 'bigint' or an enum type.
To resolve this issues, the implicit transformation should be avoided.
This commit adds a new unary AST node to represent these expressions,
allowing for more accurate type-checking.

clang-format was recently updated and any PRs that touch files in the
language service will have to reformat all the files.
Instead of changing the formatting in those PRs, this PR formats all
files in language-service package once and for all.

This commit performs a modularization of the Language Service's existing
diagnostic messages. Such a modularization has two primary advantages:
- Centralization and decoupling of error messages from the code that
generates them makes it easy to add/delete/edit diagnostic messages,
and allows for independent iteration of diagnostic messages and
diagnostic generation.
- Prepares for additional features like annotating the locations where a
diagnostic is generated and enabling the configuration of which
diagnostics should be reported by the language service.
Although it would be preferable to place the diagnostics registry in an
independent JSON file, for ease of typing diagnostic types as an enum
variant of 'ts.DiagnosticCategory', the registry is stored as an object.
Part of #32663.

Under strict mode, the language service fails to typecheck nullable
symbols that have already been verified to be non-null.
This generates incorrect (false positive) and confusing diagnostics
for users.
To work around this issue in the short term, this commit changes the
diagnostic message from an error to a suggestion, and prompts users to
use the safe navigation operator (?) or non-null assertion operator (!).
For example, instead of
```typescript
{{ optional && optional.toString() }}
```
the following is cleaner:
```typescript
{{ optional?.toString() }}
{{ optional!.toString() }}
```
Note that with this change, users who legitimately make a typo in their
code will no longer see an error. I think this is acceptable, since
false positive is worse than false negative. However, if users follow
the suggestion, add ? or ! to their code, then the error will be surfaced.
This seems a reasonable trade-off.
