Both `ReferenceSymbol` and `VariableSymbol` have two locations of
interest to an external consumer.
1. The location for the initializers of the local TCB variables allow consumers
to query the TypeScript Language Service for information about the initialized type of the variable.
2. The location of the local variable itself (i.e. `_t1`) allows
consumers to query the TypeScript LS for references to that variable
from within the template.

This commit takes the `HybridVisitor` in the language service and gives it
the ability to return not just a node but the template context in which it
appears. In the future, more context regarding where a node appears in the
template might become necessary (ex: the microsyntax container for binding
nodes), and this refactoring enables that.
In the process, `HybridVisitor` is renamed and the concept of a
`TemplateTarget` interface is introduced to contain the results of this
operation.

This commit refactors the QuickInfo abstraction shared between the VE and
Ivy services and used to implement hover tooltips (quick info), which was
extracted from the VE code in commit faa81dc. The new DisplayParts
abstraction is more general and can be used to extract information needed by
various LS functions (e.g. autocompletion).
This commit effectively reverts faa81dc, returning the original code to the
VE implementation as the Ivy code is now diverged.

Currently expressions `$event.foo()` and `this.$event.foo()`, as well as `$any(foo)` and
`this.$any(foo)`, are treated as the same expression by the compiler, because `this` is considered
the same implicit receiver as when the receiver is omitted. This introduces the following issues:
1. Any time something called `$any` is used, it'll be stripped away, leaving only the first parameter.
2. If something called `$event` is used anywhere in a template, it'll be preserved as `$event`,
rather than being rewritten to `ctx.$event`, causing the value to undefined at runtime. This
applies to listener, property and text bindings.
These changes resolve the first issue and part of the second one by preserving anything that
is accessed through `this`, even if it's one of the "special" ones like `$any` or `$event`.
Furthermore, these changes only expose the `$event` global variable inside event listeners,
whereas previously it was available everywhere.
Fixes#30278.

Rather than having the Ivy implementation add the VE code to the deps
list, create a new common package that both Ivy and VE depend on. This
will make it more straightforward in the future to remove the VE code
completely.
