If `targetEntryPointPath` is provided to `mainNgcc` then we will now mark all
the `propertiesToConsider` for that entry-point if we determine that
it does not contain code that was compiled by Angular (for instance it has
no `...metadata.json` file).
The commit also renames `__modified_by_ngcc__` to `__processed_by_ivy_ngcc__`, since
there may be entry-points that are marked despite ngcc not actually compiling anything.

Now the public API does not contain internal types, such as `AbsoluteFsPath` and
`EntryPointJsonProperty`. Instead we just accept strings and then guard them in
`mainNgcc` as appropriate.
A new public API function (`hasBeenProcessed`) has been exported to allow programmatic
checking of the build marker when the package.json contents are already known.

Previously we always considered all the properties in the package.json
if no `propertiesToConsidere` were provided.
But this results in computing a new set of properties for each entry-point
plus iterating through many of the package.json properties that are
not related to bundle-format paths.

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.
