There is an encoding issue with using delta `Δ`, where the browser will attempt to detect the file encoding if the character set is not explicitly declared on a `<script/>` tag, and Chrome will find the `Δ` character and decide it is window-1252 encoding, which misinterprets the `Δ` character to be some other character that is not a valid JS identifier character
So back to the frog eyes we go.

This commit adds support for template type-checking a pipe binding which
previously was not handled by the type-checking engine. In compatibility
mode, the arguments to transform() are not checked and the type returned
by a pipe is 'any'. In full type-checking mode, the transform() method's
type signature is used to check the pipe usage and infer the return type
of the pipe.
Testing strategy: TCB tests included.

The `Δ` caused issue with other infrastructure, and we are temporarily
changing it to `ɵɵ`.
This commit also patches ts_api_guardian_test and AIO to understand `ɵɵ`.

Prior to this change Component decorator was resolving `encapsulation` value a bit incorrectly, which resulted in `encapsulation: NaN` in compiled code. Now we resolve the value as Enum memeber and throw if it's not the case. As a part of this update, the `changeDetection` field handling is also added, the resolution logic is the same as the one used for `encapsulation` field.

A previous fix to ngtsc opened the door for duplicate directives in
the 'directives' array of a component. This would happen if the directive
was declared in a module which was imported more than once within the
component's module.
This commit adds deduplication when the component's scope is materialized,
so declarations which arrive via more than one module import are coalesced.

This commit builds on the NgtscTestEnvironment helper work before and
introduces template_typecheck_spec.ts, which contains compiler tests
for template type-checking.
PR Close#26203
Previously the compiler compliance tests ran and built test code with
real dependencies on @angular/core and @angular/common. This meant that
any changes to the compiler would result in long rebuild processes
for tests to rerun.
This change removes those dependencies and causes test code to be built
against the fake_core stub of @angular/core that the ngtsc tests use.
This change also removes the dependency on @angular/common entirely, as
locality means it's possible to reference *ngIf without needing to link
to an implementation.

Existing bootstrap code in the wild depends on the existence of
.ngfactory files, which Ivy does not need. This commit adds the
capability in ngtsc to generate .ngfactory files which bridge
existing bootstrap code with Ivy.
This is an initial step. Remaining work includes complying with
the compiler option to specify a generated file directory, as well
as presumably testing in g3.

@ContentChild[ren] and @ViewChild[ren] can contain a forwardRef() to a
type. This commit allows ngtsc to unwrap the forward reference and
deal with the node inside.
It includes two modes of support for forward reference resolution -
a foreign function resolver which understands deeply nested forward
references in expressions that are being statically evaluated, and
an unwrapForwardRef() function which deals only with top-level nodes.
Both will be useful in the future, but for now only unwrapForwardRef()
is used.

This change adds support for host bindings to ngtsc, and parses them
both from decorators and from the metadata in the top-level annotation.
PR Close#24862
Previously ngtsc had a few bugs handling special token types:
* Injector was not properly translated to INJECTOR
* ChangeDetectorRef was not injected via injectChangeDetectorRef()
This commit fixes these two bugs, and also adds a test to ensure
they continue to work correctly.

Within an @NgModule it's common to include in the imports a call to
a ModuleWithProviders function, for example RouterModule.forRoot().
The old ngc compiler was able to handle this pattern because it had
global knowledge of metadata of not only the input compilation unit
but also all dependencies.
The ngtsc compiler for Ivy doesn't have this knowledge, so the
pattern of ModuleWithProviders functions is more difficult. ngtsc
must be able to determine which module is imported via the function
in order to expand the selector scope and properly tree-shake
directives and pipes.
This commit implements a solution to this problem, by adding a type
parameter to ModuleWithProviders through which the actual module
type can be passed between compilation units.
The provider side isn't a problem because the imports are always
copied directly to the ngInjectorDef.

This change supports compilation of components, directives, and modules
within ngtsc. Support is not complete, but is enough to compile and test
//packages/core/test/bundling/todo in full AOT mode. Code size benefits
are not yet achieved as //packages/core itself does not get compiled, and
some decorators (e.g. @Input) are not stripped, leading to unwanted code
being retained by the tree-shaker. This will be improved in future commits.
PR Close#24427
This commit adds a new compiler pipeline that isn't dependent on global
analysis, referred to as 'ngtsc'. This new compiler is accessed by
running ngc with "enableIvy" set to "ngtsc". It reuses the same initialization
logic but creates a new implementation of Program which does not perform the
global-level analysis that AngularCompilerProgram does. It will be the
foundation for the production Ivy compiler.
