The ultimate goal of this commit is to make use of fileNameToModuleName to
get the module specifier to use when generating an import, when that API is
available in the CompilerHost that ngtsc is created with.
As part of getting there, the way in which ngtsc tracks references and
generates import module specifiers is refactored considerably. References
are tracked with the Reference class, and previously ngtsc had several
different kinds of Reference. An AbsoluteReference represented a declaration
which needed to be imported via an absolute module specifier tracked in the
AbsoluteReference, and a RelativeReference represented a declaration from
the local program, imported via relative path or referred to directly by
identifier if possible. Thus, how to refer to a particular declaration was
encoded into the Reference type _at the time of creation of the Reference_.
This commit refactors that logic and reduces Reference to a single class
with no subclasses. A Reference represents a node being referenced, plus
context about how the node was located. This context includes a
"bestGuessOwningModule", the compiler's best guess at which absolute
module specifier has defined this reference. For example, if the compiler
arrives at the declaration of CommonModule via an import to @angular/common,
then any references obtained from CommonModule (e.g. NgIf) will also be
considered to be owned by @angular/common.
A ReferenceEmitter class and accompanying ReferenceEmitStrategy interface
are introduced. To produce an Expression referring to a given Reference'd
node, the ReferenceEmitter consults a sequence of ReferenceEmitStrategy
implementations.
Several different strategies are defined:
- LocalIdentifierStrategy: use local ts.Identifiers if available.
- AbsoluteModuleStrategy: if the Reference has a bestGuessOwningModule,
import the node via an absolute import from that module specifier.
- LogicalProjectStrategy: if the Reference is in the logical project
(is under the project rootDirs), import the node via a relative import.
- FileToModuleStrategy: use a FileToModuleHost to generate the module
specifier by which to import the node.
Depending on the availability of fileNameToModuleName in the CompilerHost,
then, a different collection of these strategies is used for compilation.

Upcoming work to implement import resolution will change the dependencies
of some higher-level classes in ngtsc & ngcc. This necessitates changes in
how these classes are created and the lifecycle of the ts.Program in ngtsc
& ngcc.
To avoid complicating the implementation work with refactoring as a result
of the new dependencies, the refactoring is performed in this commit as a
separate prepatory step.
In ngtsc, the testing harness is modified to allow easier access to some
aspects of the ts.Program.
In ngcc, the main change is that the DecorationAnalyzer is created with the
ts.Program as a constructor parameter. This is not a lifecycle change, as
it was previously created with the ts.TypeChecker which is derived from the
ts.Program anyways. This change requires some reorganization in ngcc to
accommodate, especially in testing harnesses where DecorationAnalyzer is
created manually in a number of specs.

Exported functions or static method that return a `ModuleWithProviders`
compatible structure need to provide information about the referenced
`NgModule` type in their return type.
This allows ngtsc to be able to understand the type of `NgModule` that is
being returned from calls to the function, without having to dig into the
internals of the compiled library.
There are two ways to provide this information:
* Add a type parameter to the `ModuleWithProviders` return type. E.g.
```
static forRoot(): ModuleWithProviders<SomeNgModule>;
```
* Convert the return type to a union that includes a literal type. E.g.
```
static forRoot(): (SomeOtherType)&{ngModule:SomeNgModule};
```
This commit updates the rendering of typings files to include this type
information on all matching functions/methods.

A surprising interaction with the MagicString library caused inserted
Ivy definitions to be dropped during the removal of decorators, iff all
decorators on the class could be removed. In that case, the removal
location corresponds with the exact location where Ivy definitions were
inserted into.
This commit moves the removal of decorators to occur before Ivy
definitions are inserted. This effectively avoids the problem, as later
inserted text fragments will be retained by MagicString.

If a template contains specific TypeScript syntax, such as a non-null
assertion, the code that is emitted from ngcc into a JavaScript bundle
should not retain such syntax as it is invalid in JS.
A full-blown TypeScript emit of a complete ts.SourceFile would be
required to be able to emit JS and possibly downlevel into a lower
language target, which is not an option for ngcc as it currently
operates on partial ASTs, not full source files.
Instead, ngtsc no longer produces TypeScript specific syntax in the first
place, such that TypeScript print logic will only generate JS code.

Ngcc will now render additional exports for classes that are referenced in
`NgModule` decorated classes, but which were not publicly exported
from an entry-point of the package.
This is important because when ngtsc compiles libraries processed by ngcc
it needs to be able to publcly access decorated classes that are referenced
by `NgModule` decorated classes in order to build templates that use these
classes.
Doing this re-exporting is not without its risks. There are chances that
the class is not exported correctly: there may already be similarly named
exports from the entry-point or the class may be being aliased. But there
is not much more we can do from the point of view of ngcc to workaround
such scenarios. Generally, packages should have been built so that this
approach works.

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.

The `NgModuleDecoratorHandler` can now register all the references that
it finds in the `NgModule` metadata, such as `declarations`, `imports`,
`exports` etc.
This information can then be used by ngcc to work out if any of these
references are internal only and need to be manually exported from a
library's entry-point.

When ngtsc compiles @angular/core, it rewrites core imports to the
r3_symbols.ts file that exposes all internal symbols under their
external name. When creating the FESM bundle, the r3_symbols.ts file
causes the external symbol names to be rewritten to their internal name.
Under ngcc compilations of FESM bundles, the indirection of
r3_symbols.ts is no longer in place such that the external names are
retained in the bundle. Previously, the external name `ɵdefineNgModule`
was explicitly declared internally to resolve this issue, but the
recently added `setClassMetadata` was not declared as such, causing
runtime errors.
Instead of relying on the r3_symbols.ts file to perform the rewrite of
the external modules to their internal variants, the translation is
moved into the `ImportManager` during the compilation itself. This
avoids the need for providing the external name manually.

Previously the ivy definition calls we going directly after the

For each package entry-point there is only one format that
is used to compile the typings files (.d.ts). This will be
either esm2015 or fesm2015 (preferred). So we would not run
any dts processing in the renderer if we are not compiling
the appropriate format.

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.

The rendering of typings is not specific to the package
format, so it doesn't make sense to put it in a specific
renderer.
As a result there is no real difference between esm5 and esm2015
renderers, so there is no point in having separate classes.

This commit causes a call to setClassMetadata() to be emitted for every
type being compiled by ngtsc (every Angular type). With this metadata,
the TestBed should be able to recompile these classes when overriding
decorator information.
Testing strategy: Tests in the previous commit for
generateSetClassMetadataCall() verify that the metadata as generated is
correct. This commit enables the generation for each DecoratorHandler,
and a test is added to ngtsc_spec to verify all decorated types have
metadata generated for them.

Originally, the ivy_switch mechanism used Bazel genrules to conditionally
compile one TS file or another depending on whether ngc or ngtsc was the
selected compiler. This was done because we wanted to avoid importing
certain modules (and thus pulling them into the build) if Ivy was on or
off. This mechanism had a major drawback: ivy_switch became a bottleneck
in the import graph, as it both imports from many places in the codebase
and is imported by many modules in the codebase. This frequently resulted
in cyclic imports which caused issues both with TS and Closure compilation.
It turns out ngcc needs both code paths in the bundle to perform the switch
during its operation anyway, so import switching was later abandoned. This
means that there's no real reason why the ivy_switch mechanism needed to
operate at the Bazel level, and for the ivy_switch file to be a bottleneck.
This commit removes the Bazel-level ivy_switch mechanism, and introduces
an additional TypeScript transform in ngtsc (and the pass-through tsc
compiler used for testing JIT) to perform the same operation that ngcc
does, and flip the switch during ngtsc compilation. This allows the
ivy_switch file to be removed, and the individual switches to be located
directly next to their consumers in the codebase, greatly mitigating the
circular import issues and making the mechanism much easier to use.
As part of this commit, the tag for marking switched variables was changed
from __PRE_NGCC__ to __PRE_R3__, since it's no longer just ngcc which
flips these tags. Most variables were renamed from R3_* to SWITCH_* as well,
since they're referenced mostly in render2 code.
Test strategy: existing test coverage is more than sufficient - if this
didn't work correctly it would break the hello world and todo apps.

Closure compiler requires that the i18n message constants of the form
const MSG_XYZ = goog.getMessage('...');
have names that are unique across an entire compilation, even if the
variables themselves are local to a given module. This means that in
practice these names must be unique in a codebase.
The best way to guarantee this requirement is met is to encode the
relative file name of the file into which the constant is being written
into the constant name itself. This commit implements that solution.

This commit creates an API for factory functions which allows them
to be inherited from one another. To do so, it differentiates between
the factory function as a wrapper for a constructor and the factory
function in ngInjectableDefs which is determined by a default
provider.
The new form is:
factory: (t?) => new (t || SomeType)(inject(Dep1), inject(Dep2))
The 't' parameter allows for constructor inheritance. A subclass with
no declared constructor inherits its constructor from the superclass.
With the 't' parameter, a subclass can call the superclass' factory
function and use it to create an instance of the subclass.
For @Injectables with configured providers, the factory function is
of the form:
factory: (t?) => t ? constructorInject(t) : provider();
where constructorInject(t) creates an instance of 't' using the
naturally declared constructor of the type, and where provider()
creates an instance of the base type using the special declared
provider on @Injectable.

Previously, ngtsc used a new ConstantPool for each decorator
compilation. This could result in collisions between constants in the
top-level scope.
Now, ngtsc uses a single ConstantPool for each source file being
compiled, and merges the constant statements into the file after the
import section.
