Prior to this commit, Ivy compiler didn't handle directive inputs with interpolations located on `<ng-template>` elements (e.g. `<ng-template dir="{{ field }}">`). That was the case for regular inputs as well as inputs that should be processed via i18n subsystem (e.g. `<ng-template i18n-dir dir="Hello {{ name }}">`). This commit adds support for such expressions for explicit `<ng-template>`s as well as a number of tests to confirm the behavior.
Fixes#35752.

Prior to this commit, i18n attributes defined on `<ng-template>` tags were not processed by the compiler. This commit adds the necessary logic to handle i18n attributes in the same way how these attrs are processed for regular elements.

Currently Ivy always generates the `$event` function argument, even if it isn't being used by the listener expressions. This can lead to unnecessary bytes being generated, because optimizers won't remove unused arguments by default. These changes add some logic to avoid adding the argument when it isn't required.

Prior to this commit, there were no `advance` instructions generated before `i18nExp` instructions and as a result, lifecycle hooks for components used inside i18n blocks were flushed too late. This commit adds the logic to generate `advance` instructions in front of `i18nExp` ones (similar to what we have in other places like interpolations, property bindings, etc), so that the necessary lifecycle hooks are flushed before expression value is captured.

Commit that updated i18n message ids rendering (e524322c43) also introduced a couple tests that relied on a previous version of `ngI18nClosureMode` flag format. The `ngI18nClosureMode` usage format was changed in the followup commit (c4ce24647b) and triggered a problem with the mentioned tests. This commit updates the tests to a new `ngI18nClosureMode` flag usage format.

If the `ngI18nClosureMode` global check actually makes it
through to the runtime, then checks for its existence should
be guarded to prevent `Reference undefined` errors in strict
mode.
(Normally, it is stripped out by dead code elimination during

this global check.

Now that `@angular/localize` can interpret multiple legacy message ids in the

When creating synthesized tagged template literals, one must provide both
the "cooked" text and the "raw" (unparsed) text. Previously there were no
good APIs for creating the AST nodes with raw text for such literals.
Recently the APIs were improved to support this, and they do an extra
check to ensure that the raw text parses to be equal to the cooked text.
It turns out there is a bug in this check -
see https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/35374.
This commit works around the bug by synthesizing a "head" node and morphing
it by changing its `kind` into the required node type.

Since i18n messages are mapped to `$localize` tagged template strings,
the "raw" version must be properly escaped. Otherwise TS will throw an
error such as:
```
Error: Debug Failure. False expression: Expected argument 'text' to be the normalized (i.e. 'cooked') version of argument 'rawText'.
```
This commit ensures that we properly escape these raw strings before creating
TS AST nodes from them.

The `:` char is used as a metadata marker in `$localize` messages.
If this char appears in the metadata it must be escaped, as `\:`.
Previously, although the `:` char was being escaped, the TS AST
being generated was not correct and so it was being output double
escaped, which meant that it appeared in the rendered message.
As of TS 3.6.2 the "raw" string can be specified when creating tagged
template AST nodes, so it is possible to correct this.

Currently Ivy stores the element attributes into an array above the component def and passes it into the relevant instructions, however the problem is that upon minification the array will get a unique name which won't compress very well. These changes move the attributes array into the component def and pass in the index into the instructions instead.
Before:
```
const _c0 = ['foo', 'bar'];
SomeComp.ngComponentDef = defineComponent({
template: function() {
element(0, 'div', _c0);
}
});
```
After:
```
SomeComp.ngComponentDef = defineComponent({
consts: [['foo', 'bar']],
template: function() {
element(0, 'div', 0);
}
});
```
A couple of cases that this PR doesn't handle:
* Template references are still in a separate array.
* i18n attributes are still in a separate array.

In an attempt to be compatible with previous translation files
the Angular compiler was generating instructions that always
included the message id. This was because it was not possible
to accurately re-generate the id from the calls to `$localize()` alone.
In line with https://hackmd.io/EQF4_-atSXK4XWg8eAha2g this
commit changes the compiler so that it only renders ids if they are
"custom" ones provided by the template author.
NOTE:
When translating messages generated by the Angular compiler
from i18n tags in templates, the `$localize.translate()` function
will compute message ids, if no custom id is provided, using a
common digest function that only relies upon the information
available in the `$localize()` calls.
This computed message id will not be the same as the message
ids stored in legacy translation files. Such files will need to be
migrated to use the new common digest function.
This only affects developers who have been trialling `$localize`, have
been calling `loadTranslations()`, and are not exclusively using custom
ids in their templates.
PR Close#32867
Metadata blocks are delimited by colons. Previously the code naively just
looked for the next colon in the string as the end marker.
This commit supports escaping colons within the metadata content.
The Angular compiler has been updated to add escaping as required.
PR Close#32867
Now that the `$localize` translations are `MessageId` based the
compiler must render `MessageId`s in its generated `$localize` code.
This is because the `MessageId` used by the compiler is computed
from information that does not get passed through to the `$localize`
tagged string.
For example, the generated code for the following template
```html
<div id="static" i18n-title="m|d" title="introduction"></div>
```
will contain these localization statements
```ts
if (ngI18nClosureMode) {
/**
* @desc d
* @meaning m
*/
const MSG_EXTERNAL_8809028065680254561$$APP_SPEC_TS_1 = goog.getMsg("introduction");
I18N_1 = MSG_EXTERNAL_8809028065680254561$$APP_SPEC_TS_1;
}
else {
I18N_1 = $localize \`:m|d@@8809028065680254561:introduction\`;
}
```
Since `$localize` is not able to accurately regenerate the source-message
(and so the `MessageId`) from the generated code, it must rely upon the
`MessageId` being provided explicitly in the generated code.
The compiler now prepends all localized messages with a "metadata block"
containing the id (and the meaning and description if defined).
Note that this metadata block will also allow translation file extraction
from the compiled code - rather than relying on the legacy ViewEngine
extraction code. (This will be implemented post-v9).
Although these metadata blocks add to the initial code size, compile-time
inlining will completely remove these strings and so will not impact on
production bundle size.

If an <ng-template> contains a structural directive (for example *ngIf), Ngtsc generates extra template function with 1 template instruction call. When <ng-template> tag also contains i18n attribute on it, we generate i18nStart and i18nEnd instructions around it, which is unnecessary and breaking runtime. This commit adds a logic to make sure we do not generate i18n instructions in case only `template` is present.

The `goog.getMsg()` function requires placeholder names to be camelCased.
This is not the case for `$localize`. Here placeholder names need
match what is serialized to translation files.
Specifically such placeholder names keep their casing but have all characters

Prior to this commit, complex expressions (that require additional statements to be generated) were handled incorrectly in case they were used in attributes annotated with i18n flags. The problem was caused by the fact that extra statements were not appended to the temporary vars block, so they were missing in generated code. This commit updated the logic to use the `convertPropertyBinding`, which contains the necessary code to append extra statements. The `convertExpressionBinding` function was removed as it duplicates the `convertPropertyBinding` one (for the most part) and is no longer used.

Previously the template compiler would generate the same jsdoc comment
block for `$localize` as for `goog.getMsg()`. But it turns out that
the closure compiler will complain if the `@desc` and `@meaning`
tags are used for non-`getMsg()` calls.
For now we do not generate the comments for `$localize` calls. They are
not being used at the moment.
In the future it would be good to be able to extract the descriptions and
meanings from the `$localize` calls rather than relying upon the `getMsg()`
calls, which we do now. So we need to find a workaround for this constraint.

This commit changes the Angular compiler (ivy-only) to generate `$localize`
tagged strings for component templates that use `i18n` attributes.
BREAKING CHANGE
Since `$localize` is a global function, it must be included in any applications
that use i18n. This is achieved by importing the `@angular/localize` package
into an appropriate bundle, where it will be executed before the renderer
needs to call `$localize`. For CLI based projects, this is best done in
the `polyfills.ts` file.
```ts
import '@angular/localize';
```
For non-CLI applications this could be added as a script to the index.html
file or another suitable script file.

Similar to interpolation, we do not want to completely remove whitespace
nodes that are siblings of an expansion.
For example, the following template
```html
<div>
<strong>items left<strong> {count, plural, =1 {item} other {items}}
</div>
```
was being collapsed to
```html
<div><strong>items left<strong>{count, plural, =1 {item} other {items}}</div>
```
which results in the text looking like
```
items left4
```
instead it should be collapsed to
```html
<div><strong>items left<strong> {count, plural, =1 {item} other {items}}</div>
```
which results in the text looking like
```
items left 4
```

Fixes Ivy matching directives against attribute bindings (e.g. `[attr.some-directive]="foo"`). Works by excluding attribute bindings from the attributes array during compilation. This has the added benefit of generating less code.
**Note:** My initial approach to implementing this was to have a different marker for attribute bindings so that they can be ignored when matching directives, however as I was implementing it I realized that the attributes in that array were only used for directive matching (as far as I could tell). I decided to drop the attribute bindings completely, because it results in less generated code.

Prior to this fix, the logic to set the right placeholder format for ICUs was a bit incorrect: if there was a nested ICU in one of the root ICU cases, that led to a problem where placeholders in subsequent branches used the wrong ({$placeholder}) format instead of {PLACEHOLDER} one. This commit updates the logic to make sure we properly transform all placeholders even if nested ICUs are present.

Since `goog.getMsg` does not process ICUs (post-processing is required via goog.i18n.MessageFormat, https://google.github.io/closure-library/api/goog.i18n.MessageFormat.html) and placeholder format used for ICUs and regular messages inside `goog.getMsg` are different, the current implementation (that assumed the same placeholder format) needs to be updated. This commit updates placeholder format used inside ICUs from `{$placeholder}` to `{PLACEHOLDER}` to better align with Closure. ICU placeholders (that were left as is prior to this commit) are now replaced with actual values in post-processing step (inside `i18nPostprocess`).

So far using runtime i18n with ivy meant that you needed to use Closure and `goog.getMsg` (or a polyfill). This PR changes the compiler to output both closure & non-closure code, while the unused option will be tree-shaken by minifiers.
This means that if you use the Angular CLI with ivy and load a translations file, you can use i18n and the application will not throw at runtime.
For now it will not translate your application, but at least you can try ivy without having to remove all of your i18n code and configuration.
