ngtsc has cyclic import detection, to determine when adding an import to a
directive or pipe would create a cycle. However, this detection must also
account for already inserted imports, as it's possible for both directions
of a circular import to be inserted by Ivy (as opposed to at least one of
those edges existing in the user's program).
This commit fixes the circular import detection for components to take into
consideration already added edges. This is difficult for one critical
reason: only edges to files which will *actually* be imported should be
considered. However, that depends on which directives & pipes are used in
a given template, which is currently only known by running the
TemplateDefinitionBuilder during the 'compile' phase. This is too late; the
decision whether to use remote scoping (which consults the import graph) is
made during the 'resolve' phase, before any compilation has taken place.
Thus, the only way to correctly consider synthetic edges is for the compiler
to know exactly which directives & pipes are used in a template during
'resolve'. There are two ways to achieve this:
1) refactor `TemplateDefinitionBuilder` to do its work in two phases, with
directive matching occurring as a separate step which can be performed
earlier.
2) use the `R3TargetBinder` in the 'resolve' phase to independently bind the
template and get information about used directives.
Option 1 is ideal, but option 2 is currently used for practical reasons. The
cost of binding the template can be shared with template-typechecking.

In the @Component decorator, the 'host' field is an object which represents
host bindings. The type of this field is complex, but is generally of the
form {[key: string]: string}. Several different kinds of bindings can be
specified, depending on the structure of the key.
For example:
```
@Component({
host: {'[prop]': 'someExpr'}
})
```
will bind an expression 'someExpr' to the property 'prop'. This is known to
be a property binding because of the square brackets in the binding key.
If the binding key is a plain string (no brackets or parentheses), then it
is known as an attribute binding. In this case, the right-hand side is not
interpreted as an expression, but is instead a constant string.
There is no actual requirement that at build time, these constant strings
are known to the compiler, but this was previously enforced as a side effect
of requiring the binding expressions for property and event bindings to be
statically known (as they need to be parsed). This commit breaks that
relationship and allows the attribute bindings to be dynamic. In the case
that they are dynamic, the references to the dynamic values are reflected
into the Ivy instructions for attribute bindings.

Prior to this change, TypeScript stripped out some imports in case we reference a type that can be represented as a value (for ex. classes). This fix ensures that we use correct symbol identifier, which makes TypeScript retain the necessary import statements.

In certain configurations (such as the g3 repository) which have lots of
small compilation units as well as strict dependency checking on generated
code, ngtsc's default strategy of directly importing directives/pipes into
components will not work. To handle these cases, an additional mode is
introduced, and is enabled when using the FileToModuleHost provided by such
compilation environments.
In this mode, when ngtsc encounters an NgModule which re-exports another
from a different file, it will re-export all the directives it contains at
the ES2015 level. The exports will have a predictable name based on the
FileToModuleHost. For example, if the host says that a directive Foo is
from the 'root/external/foo' module, ngtsc will add:
```
export {Foo as ɵng$root$external$foo$$Foo} from 'root/external/foo';
```
Consumers of the re-exported directive will then import it via this path
instead of directly from root/external/foo, preserving strict dependency
semantics.

This commit splits apart selector_scope.ts in ngtsc and extracts the logic
into two separate classes, the LocalModuleScopeRegistry and the
DtsModuleScopeResolver. The logic is cleaned up significantly and new tests
are added to verify behavior.
LocalModuleScopeRegistry implements the NgModule semantics for compilation
scopes, and handles NgModules declared in the current compilation unit.
DtsModuleScopeResolver implements simpler logic for export scopes and
handles NgModules declared in .d.ts files.
This is done in preparation for the addition of re-export logic to solve
StrictDeps issues.

This change is kind of similar to #27466, but instead of ensuring that
these shims can be generated, we also need to make sure that developers
are able to also use the factory shims like with `ngc`.
This issue is now surfacing because we have various old examples which
are now also built with `ngtsc` (due to the bazel migration). On case insensitive
platforms (e.g. windows) these examples cannot be built because ngtsc fails
the app imports a generated shim file (such as the factory shim files).
This is because the `GeneratedShimsHostWrapper` TypeScript host uses
the `getCanonicalFileName` method in order to check whether a given
file/module exists in the generator file maps. e.g.
```
// Generator Map:
'C:/users/paul/_bazel_paul/lm3s4mgv/execroot/angular/packages/core/index.ngfactory.ts' =>
'C:/users/paul/_bazel_paul/lm3s4mgv/execroot/angular/packages/core/index.ts',
// Path passed into `fileExists`
C:/users/paul/_bazel_paul/lm3s4mgv/execroot/angular/packages/core/index.ngfactory.ts
// After getCanonicalFileName (notice the **lower-case drive name**)
c:/users/paul/_bazel_paul/lm3s4mgv/execroot/angular/packages/core/index.ngfactory.ts
```
As seen above, the generator map does not use the canonical file names, as well as
TypeScript internally does not pass around canonical file names. We can fix this by removing
the manual call to `getCanonicalFileName` and just following TypeScript internal-semantics.

This commit adds support for the `static: true` flag in
`ViewChild` queries. Prior to this commit, all `ViewChild`
queries were resolved after change detection ran. This is
a problem for backwards compatibility because View Engine
also supported "static" queries which would resolve before
change detection.
Now if users add a `static: true` option, the query will be
resolved in creation mode (before change detection runs).
For example:
```ts
@ViewChild(TemplateRef, {static: true}) template !: TemplateRef;
```
This feature will come in handy for components that need
to create components dynamically.

Previously, ngtsc would throw an error if two decorators were matched on
the same class simultaneously. However, @Injectable is a special case, and
it appears frequently on component, directive, and pipe classes. For pipes
in particular, it's a common pattern to treat the pipe class also as an
injectable service.
ngtsc actually lacked the capability to compile multiple matching
decorators on a class, so this commit adds support for that. Decorator
handlers (and thus the decorators they match) are classified into three
categories: PRIMARY, SHARED, and WEAK.
PRIMARY handlers compile decorators that cannot coexist with other primary
decorators. The handlers for Component, Directive, Pipe, and NgModule are
marked as PRIMARY. A class may only have one decorator from this group.
SHARED handlers compile decorators that can coexist with others. Injectable
is the only decorator in this category, meaning it's valid to put an
@Injectable decorator on a previously decorated class.
WEAK handlers behave like SHARED, but are dropped if any non-WEAK handler
matches a class. The handler which compiles ngBaseDef is WEAK, since
ngBaseDef is only needed if a class doesn't otherwise have a decorator.
Tests are added to validate that @Injectable can coexist with the other
decorators and that an error is generated when mixing the primaries.
PR Close#28523
In the past, @Injectable had no side effects and existing Angular code is
therefore littered with @Injectable usage on classes which are not intended
to be injected.
A common example is:
@Injectable()
class Foo {
constructor(private notInjectable: string) {}
}
and somewhere else:
providers: [{provide: Foo, useFactory: ...})
Here, there is no need for Foo to be injectable - indeed, it's impossible
for the DI system to create an instance of it, as it has a non-injectable
constructor. The provider configures a factory for the DI system to be
able to create instances of Foo.
Adding @Injectable in Ivy signifies that the class's own constructor, and
not a provider, determines how the class will be created.
This commit adds logic to compile classes which are marked with @Injectable
but are otherwise not injectable, and create an ngInjectableDef field with
a factory function that throws an error. This way, existing code in the wild
continues to compile, but if someone attempts to use the injectable it will
fail with a useful error message.
In the case where strictInjectionParameters is set to true, a compile-time
error is thrown instead of the runtime error, as ngtsc has enough
information to determine when injection couldn't possibly be valid.

By its nature, Ivy alters the import graph of a TS program, adding imports
where template dependencies exist. For example, if ComponentA uses PipeB
in its template, Ivy will insert an import of PipeB into the file in which
ComponentA is declared.
Any insertion of an import into a program has the potential to introduce a
cycle into the import graph. If for some reason the file in which PipeB is
declared imports the file in which ComponentA is declared (maybe it makes
use of a service or utility function that happens to be in the same file as
ComponentA) then this could create an import cycle. This turns out to
happen quite regularly in larger Angular codebases.
TypeScript and the Ivy runtime have no issues with such cycles. However,
other tools are not so accepting. In particular the Closure Compiler is
very anti-cycle.
To mitigate this problem, it's necessary to detect when the insertion of
an import would create a cycle. ngtsc can then use a different strategy,
known as "remote scoping", instead of directly writing a reference from
one component to another. Under remote scoping, a function
'setComponentScope' is called after the declaration of the component's
module, which does not require the addition of new imports.

Previously, ngtsc would assume that a given directive/pipe being imported
from an external package was importable using the same name by which it
was declared. This isn't always true; sometimes a package will export a
directive under a different name. For example, Angular frequently prefixes
directive names with the 'ɵ' character to indicate that they're part of
the package's private API, and not for public consumption.
This commit introduces the TsReferenceResolver class which, given a
declaration to import and a module name to import it from, can determine
the exported name of the declared class within the module. This allows
ngtsc to pick the correct name by which to import the class instead of
making assumptions about how it was exported.
This resolver is used to select a correct symbol name when creating an
AbsoluteReference.
