Update the supported range of node versions for to be less restrictive, no longer causing
yarn or npm to fail engine's checks for future versions of node.
While this change will no longer cause yarn or npm to fail these engine's check, this does
not reflect a change in the officially supported versions of node for Angular. Angular
continues to maintain support for Active LTS and Maintenance LTS versions of node.

When creating the router state, the `RouteReuseStrategy#retrieve` should
only be called when `RouteReuseStrategy#shouldAttach` returns `true`.
That is, we should only retrieve a stored route when the reuse strategy
indicates that there is one stored and that it should be reattached.
This now matches the behavior in the route activation:

This situation can probably happen only when using
`HashLocationStrategy` and by manually changing hash that triggers a route
guard that returns a new `UrlTree`. Then hash in the browser might not
match the current route because navigation was canceled, while hash in
the URL remained set by the user.

When recognizing routes, the router merges nodes which map to the same
empty path config. This is because auxiliary outlets under empty path
parents need to match the parent config. This would result in two
outlet matches for that parent which need to be combined into a single
node: The regular 'primary' match and the match for the auxiliary outlet.
In addition, the children of the merged nodes should also be merged to
account for multiple levels of empty path parents.

This commit removes the line to set `currentNavigation` to `null` in the

When we deactivate a child route, we deactivate its outlet as well as
its children. We also need to clear the stored information about the
route and the associated component.
If we do not, the context will keep these references and can result in

Add new method `historyGo`, that will let
the user navigate to a specific page from session history identified by its
relative position to the current page.
We add some tests to `location_spec.ts` to validate the behavior of the
`historyGo` and `forward` methods.
Add more tests for `location_spec` to test `location.historyGo(0)`, `location.historyGo()`,
`location.historyGo(100)` and `location.historyGo(-100)`. We also add new tests for
`Integration` spec to validate the navigation when we using
`location#historyGo`.
Update the `historyGo` function docs
Note that this was made an optional function in the abstract classes to
avoid a breaking change. Because our location classes use `implements PlatformLocation`
rather than `extends PlatformLocation`, simply adding a default
implementation was not sufficient to make this a non-breaking change.
While we could fix the classes internal to Angular, this would still have been
a breaking change for any external developers who may have followed our
implementations as an example.

The `DomAdapter` is present in all Angular apps and its methods aren't tree shakeable.
These changes remove the methods that either aren't being used anymore or were only
used by our own tests. Note that these changes aren't breaking, because the adapter
is an internal API.
The following methods were removed:
* `getProperty` - only used within our own tests.
* `log` - Guaranteed to be defined on `console`.
* `logGroup` and `logGroupEnd` - Only used in one place. It was in the DomAdapter for built-in null checking.
* `logGroupEnd` - Only used in one place. It was placed in the DomAdapter for built in null checking.
* `performanceNow` - Only used in one place that has to be invoked through the browser console.
* `supportsCookies` - Unused.
* `getCookie` - Unused.
* `getLocation` and `getHistory` - Only used in one place which appears to have access to the DOM
already, because it had direct accesses to `window`. Furthermore, even if this was being used
in a non-browser context already, the `DominoAdapter` was set up to throw an error.
The following APIs were changed to be more compact:
* `supportsDOMEvents` - Changed to a readonly property.
* `remove` - No longer returns the removed node.

This commit updates the type of the `APP_INITIALIZER` injection token to
better document the expected types of values that Angular handles. Only
Promises and Observables are awaited and other types of values are ignored,
so the type of `APP_INITIALIZER` has been updated to
`Promise<unknown> | Observable<unknown> | void` to reflect this behavior.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The type of the `APP_INITIALIZER` token has been changed to more accurately
reflect the types of return values that are handled by Angular. Previously,
each initializer callback was typed to return `any`, this is now
`Promise<unknown> | Observable<unknown> | void`. In the unlikely event that
your application uses the `Injector.get` or `TestBed.inject` API to inject
the `APP_INITIALIZER` token, you may need to update the code to account for
the stricter type.
Additionally, TypeScript may report the TS2742 error if the `APP_INITIALIZER`
token is used in an expression of which its inferred type has to be emitted
into a .d.ts file. To workaround this, an explicit type annotation is needed,
which would typically be `Provider` or `Provider[]`.

This PR formalizes, documents, and makes public the router outlet contract.
The set of `RouterOutlet` methods used by the `Router` has not changed
in over 4 years, since the introduction of route reuse strategies.
Creation of custom router outlets is already possible and is used by the
Ionic framework
(https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-framework/blob/master/angular/src/directives/navigation/ion-router-outlet.ts).
There is a small "hack" that is needed to make this work, which is that
outlets must register with `ChildrenOutletContexts`, but it currently
only accepts our `RouterOutlet`.
By exposing the interface the `Router` uses to activate and deactivate
routes through outlets, we allow for developers to more easily and safely
extend the `Router` and have fine-tuned control over navigation and component
activation that fits project requirements.

During route activation, a componentless route will not have a context created
for it, but the logic continues to recurse so that children are still
activated. This can be seen here:
362f45c4bf/packages/router/src/operators/activate_routes.ts (L151-L158)
The current deactivation logic does not currently account for componentless routes.
This commit adjusts the deactivation logic so that if a context cannot
be retrieved for a given route (because it is componentless), we
continue to recurse and deactivate the children using the same
`parentContexts` in the same way that activation does.

When talking about parameter inheritance, one might think that matrix
parameters can be inherited from the "parent" segment, or the segment
which appears immediately to the left. In reality, when we talk about
a "parent" in the `Router`, we mean the parent `Route` config. This
config may contain more than one segment and matrix parameters must
appear at the end or they do not "belong" to any config.

There are two parts to this commit:
1. Revert the changes from #38379. This change had an incomplete view of
how things worked and also diverged the implementations of
`applyRedirects` and `recognize` even more.
2. Apply the fixes from the `recognize` algorithm to ensure that named
outlets with empty path parents can be matched. This change also passes
all the tests that were added in #38379 with the added benefit of being
a more complete fix that stays in-line with the `recognize` algorithm.
This was made possible by using the same approach for `split` by
always creating segments for empty path matches (previously, this was
only done in `applyRedirects` if there was a `redirectTo` value). At the
end of the expansions, we need to squash all empty segments so that
serializing the final `UrlTree` returns the same result as before.

The `applyRedirects` and `recognize` algorithms have the same overall goal:
match a `UrlTree` with the application's `Routes` config. There are a
few key functions in these algorithms which can be shared rather than
duplicated between the two. This also makes it easier to see how the two
are similar and where they diverge.
PR Close#40029
This commit updates the `recognize` algorithm to work with named outlets
which have empty path parents. For example, given the following config
```
const routes = [
{
path: '',
children: [
{path: 'a', outlet: 'aux', component: AuxComponent}
]}
];
```
The url `/(aux:a)` should match this config. In order to do so, we need
to allow the children of `UrlSegmentGroup`s to match a `Route` config
for a different outlet (in this example, the `primary`) when it's an
empty path. This should also *only* happen if we were unable to find a
match for the outlet in the level above. That is, the matching strategy
is to find the first `Route` in the list which _matches the given
outlet_. If we are unable to do that, then we allow empty paths from
other outlets to match and try to find some child there whose outlet
matches our segment.

To make the tests suite easier to follow, `Recognize#apply` can be made

This commit updates the `recognize` algorithm to return `null` when a
segment does not match a given config rather than throwing an error.
This makes the code much easier to follow because the "no match" result
has to be explicitly handled rather than catching the error in very
specific places.
PR Close#40029
When stepping through the `recognize` algorithm, it is much easier to
follow when using a simple `for...of` rather than the helper
`mapChildrenIntoArray` with the passed closure. The only special thing that
`mapChildrenIntoArray` does is ensure the primary route appears first.
This change will have no affect on the result because `processChildren` later calls
`sortActivatedRouteSnapshots`, which does the same thing.

Allow configuration of `relativeTo` in the `routerLink` directive. This
is related to the clearing of auxiliary routes, where you need to use
`relativeTo: route.parent` in order to clear it from the activated
auxiliary component itself. This is because `relativeTo: route` will
consume the segment that we're trying to clear, so there is really no
way to do this with routerLink at the moment.
