Often the types of an `@Input`'s field don't fully reflect the types of
assignable values. This can happen when an input has a getter/setter pair
where the getter always returns a narrow type, and the setter coerces a
wider value down to the narrow type.
For example, you could imagine an input of the form:
```typescript
@Input() get value(): string {
return this._value;
}
set value(v: {toString(): string}) {
this._value = v.toString();
}
```
Here, the getter always returns a `string`, but the setter accepts any value
that can be `toString()`'d, and coerces it to a string.
Unfortunately TypeScript does not actually support this syntax, and so
Angular users are forced to type their setters as narrowly as the getters,
even though at runtime the coercion works just fine.
To support these kinds of patterns (e.g. as used by Material), this commit
adds a compiler feature called "input coercion". When a binding is made to
the 'value' input of a directive like MatInput, the compiler will look for a
static field with the name ngAcceptInputType_value. If such a field is found
the type-checking expression for the input will use the static field's type
instead of the type for the @Input field,allowing for the expression of a
type conversion between the binding expression and the value being written
to the input's field.
To solve the case above, for example, MatInput might write:
```typescript
class MatInput {
// rest of the directive...
static ngAcceptInputType_value: {toString(): string};
}
```

Prior to this change, a method call of a local template variable would
incorrectly be considered a call to a method on the component class.
For example, this pattern would produce an error:
```
<ng-template let-method>{{ method(1) }}</ng-template>
```
Here, the method call should be targeting the `$implicit` variable on
the template context, not the component class. This commit corrects the
behavior by first resolving methods in the template before falling back
on the component class.

This commit refactors the aliasing system to support multiple different
AliasingHost implementations, which control specific aliasing behavior
in ngtsc (see the README.md).
A new host is introduced, the `PrivateExportAliasingHost`. This solves a
longstanding problem in ngtsc regarding support for "monorepo" style private
libraries. These are libraries which are compiled separately from the main
application, and depended upon through TypeScript path mappings. Such
libraries are frequently not in the Angular Package Format and do not have
entrypoints, but rather make use of deep import style module specifiers.
This can cause issues with ngtsc's ability to import a directive given the
module specifier of its NgModule.
For example, if the application uses a directive `Foo` from such a library
`foo`, the user might write:
```typescript
import {FooModule} from 'foo/module';
```
In this case, foo/module.d.ts is path-mapped into the program. Ordinarily
the compiler would see this as an absolute module specifier, and assume that
the `Foo` directive can be imported from the same specifier. For such non-
APF libraries, this assumption fails. Really `Foo` should be imported from
the file which declares it, but there are two problems with this:
1. The compiler would have to reverse the path mapping in order to determine
a path-mapped path to the file (maybe foo/dir.d.ts).
2. There is no guarantee that the file containing the directive is path-
mapped in the program at all.
The compiler would effectively have to "guess" 'foo/dir' as a module
specifier, which may or may not be accurate depending on how the library and
path mapping are set up.
It's strongly desirable that the compiler not break its current invariant
that the module specifier given by the user for the NgModule is always the
module specifier from which directives/pipes are imported. Thus, for any
given NgModule from a particular module specifier, it must always be
possible to import any directives/pipes from the same specifier, no matter
how it's packaged.
To make this possible, when compiling a file containing an NgModule, ngtsc
will automatically add re-exports for any directives/pipes not yet exported
by the user, with a name of the form: ɵngExportɵModuleNameɵDirectiveName
This has several effects:
1. It guarantees anyone depending on the NgModule will be able to import its
directives/pipes from the same specifier.
2. It maintains a stable name for the exported symbol that is safe to depend
on from code on NPM. Effectively, this private exported name will be a
part of the package's .d.ts API, and cannot be changed in a non-breaking
fashion.

Previously, the `FileSystem` abstraction featured a `mkdir()` method. In
`NodeJSFileSystem` (the default `FileSystem` implementation used in
actual code), the method behaved similar to Node.js' `fs.mkdirSync()`
(i.e. failing if any parent directory is missing or the directory exists
already). In contrast, `MockFileSystem` (which is the basis or mock
`FileSystem` implementations used in tests) implemented `mkdir()` as an
alias to `ensureDir()`, which behaved more like Node.js'
`fs.mkdirSync()` with the `recursive` option set to `true` (i.e.
creating any missing parent directories and succeeding if the directory
exists already).
This commit fixes this inconsistency by removing the `mkdir()` method,
which was not used anyway and only keeping `ensureDir()` (which is
consistent across our different `FileSystem` implementations).

When `ngcc` is running in parallel mode (usually when run from the
command line) and the `createNewEntryPointFormats` option is set to true
(e.g. via the `--create-ivy-entry-points` command line option), it can
happen that two workers end up trying to create the same directory at
the same time. This can lead to a race condition, where both check for
the directory existence, see that the directory does not exist and both
try to create it, with the second failing due the directory's having
already been created by the first one. Note that this only affects
directories and not files, because `ngcc` tasks operate on different
sets of files.
This commit avoids this race condition by allowing `FileSystem`'s
`ensureDir()` method to not fail if one of the directories it is trying
to create already exists (and is indeed a directory). This is fine for
the `ensureDir()` method, since it's purpose is to ensure that the
specified directory exists. So, even if the `mkdir()` call failed
(because the directory exists), `ensureDir()` has still completed its
mission.

As a hack to get the Ivy compiler ngtsc off the ground, the existing
'allowEmptyCodegenFiles' option was used to control generation of ngfactory

As ngtsc is now mature and the role shims play in compilation is now better

* generateNgFactoryShims controls the generation of .ngfactory shims.
* generateNgSummaryShims controls the generation of .ngsummary shims.

Prior to this change, the template type checker would always allow a
value of type `undefined` to be passed into a directive's inputs, even
if the input's type did not allow for it. This was due to how the type
constructor for a directive was generated, where a `Partial` mapped
type was used to allow for inputs to be unset. This essentially
introduces the `undefined` type as acceptable type for all inputs.
This commit removes the `Partial` type from the type constructor, which
means that we can no longer omit any properties that were unset.
Instead, any properties that are not set will still be included in the
type constructor call, having their value assigned to `any`.

class NgForOf<T> {

For reference, the extra logic mentioned above is that for injectables we have two code paths:
1. For injectables that don't configure how they should be instantiated, we create a `factory` that proxies to `ngFactoryDef`:
```
// Source
@Injectable()
class Service {}
// Output
class Service {
static ngInjectableDef = defineInjectable({
factory: () => Service.ngFactoryFn(),
});
static ngFactoryFn: (t) => new (t || Service)();
}
```
2. For injectables that do configure how they're created, we keep the `ngFactoryDef` and generate the factory based on the metadata:
```
// Source
@Injectable({
useValue: DEFAULT_IMPL,
})
class Service {}
// Output
export class Service {
static ngInjectableDef = defineInjectable({
factory: () => DEFAULT_IMPL,
});

Previously, the emulated Windows mode would normalize rooted paths to
always include a drive letter, whereas the native mode did not perform

the tests in native Windows was behaving differently compared to how
emulated Windows mode behaves, potentially resulting in test failures

In ngc is was valid to set the "flatModuleOutFile" option to "null". This is sometimes
necessary if a tsconfig extends from another one but the "fatModuleOutFile" option
needs to be unset (note that "undefined" does not exist as value in JSON)
Now if ngtsc is used to compile the project, ngtsc will fail with an error because it
tries to do string manipulation on the "flatModuleOutFile". This happens because
ngtsc only skips flat module indices if the option is set to "undefined".

Historically, the Angular Compiler has produced both native TypeScript
diagnostics (called ts.Diagnostics) and its own internal Diagnostic format
(called an api.Diagnostic). This was done because TypeScript ts.Diagnostics
cannot be produced for files not in the ts.Program, and template type-
checking diagnostics are naturally produced for external .html template
files.
This design isn't optimal for several reasons:
1) Downstream tooling (such as the CLI) must support multiple formats of
diagnostics, adding to the maintenance burden.
2) ts.Diagnostics have gotten a lot better in recent releases, with support
for suggested changes, highlighting of the code in question, etc. None of
these changes have been of any benefit for api.Diagnostics, which have
continued to be reported in a very primitive fashion.
3) A future plugin model will not support anything but ts.Diagnostics, so
generating api.Diagnostics is a blocker for ngtsc-as-a-plugin.
4) The split complicates both the typings and the testing of ngtsc.
To fix this issue, this commit changes template type-checking to produce
ts.Diagnostics instead. Instead of reporting a special kind of diagnostic
for external template files, errors in a template are always reported in
a ts.Diagnostic that highlights the portion of the template which contains
the error. When this template text is distinct from the source .ts file
(for example, when the template is parsed from an external resource file),
additional contextual information links the error back to the originating
component.
A template error can thus be reported in 3 separate ways, depending on how
the template was configured:
1) For inline template strings which can be directly mapped to offsets in
the TS code, ts.Diagnostics point to real ranges in the source.
This is the case if an inline template is used with a string literal or a
"no-substitution" string. For example:
```typescript
@Component({..., template: `
<p>Bar: {{baz}}</p>
`})
export class TestCmp {
bar: string;
}
```
The above template contains an error (no 'baz' property of `TestCmp`). The
error produced by TS will look like:
```
<p>Bar: {{baz}}</p>
~~~
test.ts:2:11 - error TS2339: Property 'baz' does not exist on type 'TestCmp'. Did you mean 'bar'?
```
2) For template strings which cannot be directly mapped to offsets in the
TS code, a logical offset into the template string will be included in
the error message. For example:
```typescript
const SOME_TEMPLATE = '<p>Bar: {{baz}}</p>';
@Component({..., template: SOME_TEMPLATE})
export class TestCmp {
bar: string;
}
```
Because the template is a reference to another variable and is not an
inline string constant, the compiler will not be able to use "absolute"
positions when parsing the template. As a result, errors will report logical
offsets into the template string:
```
<p>Bar: {{baz}}</p>
~~~
test.ts (TestCmp template):2:15 - error TS2339: Property 'baz' does not exist on type 'TestCmp'.
test.ts:3:28
@Component({..., template: TEMPLATE})
~~~~~~~~
Error occurs in the template of component TestCmp.
```
This error message uses logical offsets into the template string, and also
gives a reference to the `TEMPLATE` expression from which the template was
parsed. This helps in locating the component which contains the error.
3) For external templates (templateUrl), the error message is delivered
within the HTML template file (testcmp.html) instead, and additional
information contextualizes the error on the templateUrl expression from
which the template file was determined:
```
<p>Bar: {{baz}}</p>
~~~
testcmp.html:2:15 - error TS2339: Property 'baz' does not exist on type 'TestCmp'.
test.ts:10:31
@Component({..., templateUrl: './testcmp.html'})

Error occurs in the template of component TestCmp.

When a template contains a binding without a value, the template parser
creates an `EmptyExpr` node. This would previously be translated into
an `undefined` value, which would cause a crash downstream as `undefined`
is not included in the allowed type, so it was not handled properly.
This commit prevents the crash by returning an actual expression for empty
bindings.

This commit switches the default value of the enableIvy flag to true.
Applications that run ngc will now by default receive an Ivy build!
This does not affect the way Bazel builds in the Angular repo work, since
those are still switched based on the value of the --define=compile flag.
Additionally, projects using @angular/bazel still use View Engine builds
by default.
Since most of the Angular repo tests are still written against View Engine
(particularly because we still publish VE packages to NPM), this switch
also requires lots of `enableIvy: false` flags in tsconfigs throughout the
repo.
Congrats to the team for reaching this milestone!
