Sometimes, in ESM5 code, aliases to exported variables are used internally
to refer to the exported value. This prevented some analysis from being
able to match up a reference to an export to the actual export itself.
For example in the following code:
```
var HttpClientXsrfModule = /** @class */ (function () {
function HttpClientXsrfModule() {
}
HttpClientXsrfModule_1 = HttpClientXsrfModule;
HttpClientXsrfModule.withOptions = function (options) {
if (options === void 0) { options = {}; }
return {
ngModule: HttpClientXsrfModule_1,
providers: [],
};
};
var HttpClientXsrfModule_1;
HttpClientXsrfModule = HttpClientXsrfModule_1 = tslib_1.__decorate([
NgModule({
providers: [],
})
], HttpClientXsrfModule);
return HttpClientXsrfModule;
}());
```
We were not able to tell that the `ngModule: HttpClientXsrfModule_1` property
assignment was actually meant to refer to the `function HttpClientXrsfModule()`
declaration. This caused the `ModuleWithProviders` processing to fail.
This commit ensures that we can compile typings files using the ESM5
format, so we can now update the examples boilerplate tool so that it
does not need to compile the ESM2015 format at all.

In ESM5 code, static methods appear as property assignments onto the constructor
function. For example:
```
var MyClass = (function() {
function MyClass () {}
MyClass.staticMethod = function() {};
return MyClass;
})();
```
This commit teaches ngcc how to process these forms when searching
for `ModuleWithProviders` functions that need to be updated in the typings
files.

By default ngcc will compile all the format properties specified. With this
change you can configure ngcc so that it will stop compiling an entry-point
after the first property that matches the `propertiesToConsider`.

By ensuring that EntryPointBundle contains everything that `Transformer.transform()`
needs to do its work, we can simplify its signature.

Now that we are using package.json properties to indicate which
entry-point format to compile, it turns out that we don't really
need to distinguish between flat and non-flat formats, unless we
are compiling `@angular/core`.
PR Close#29092
You can now specify a list of properties in the package.json that
should be considered (in order) to find the path to the format to compile.
The build marker system has been updated to store the markers in
the package.json rather than an additional external file.
Also instead of tracking the underlying bundle format that was compiled,
it now tracks the package.json property.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The `proertiesToConsider` option replaces the previous `formats` option,
which specified the final bundle format, rather than the property in the
package.json.
If you were using this option to compile only specific bundle formats,
you must now modify your usage to pass in the properties in the package.json
that map to the format that you wish to compile.
In the CLI, the `--formats` is no longer available. Instead use the
`--properties` option.

You can now, programmatically, specify an entry-point where
the ngcc compilation will occur.
Only this entry-point and its dependencies will be compiled.

The `mainNgcc()` function has been refactored to make it easier to call
ngcc from JavaScript, rather than via the command line.
For example, the `yargs` argument parsing and the exception
handling/logging have moved to the `main-ngcc.ts`
file so that it is only used for the command line version.
