Previously in Ivy, metadata for directives/components/modules/etc was
carried in .d.ts files inside type information encoded on the
DirectiveDef, ComponentDef, NgModuleDef, etc types of Ivy definition
fields. This works well, but has the side effect of complicating Ivy's
runtime code as these extra generic type parameters had to be specified
as <any> throughout the codebase. *DefInternal types were introduced
previously to mitigate this issue, but that's the wrong way to solve
the problem.
This commit returns *Def types to their original form, with no metadata
attached. Instead, new *DefWithMeta types are introduced that alias the
plain definition types and add extra generic parameters. This way the
only code that needs to deal with the extra metadata parameters is the
compiler code that reads and writes them - the existence of this metadata
is transparent to the runtime, as it should be.

This commit introduces //packages/compiler-cli/src/ngtsc/typecheck as a
container for template type-checking code, and implements an initial API:
type constructor generation.
Type constructors are static methods on component/directive types with
no runtime implementation. The methods are used during compilation to
enable inference of a component or directive's generic type parameters
from the types of expressions bound to any of their @Inputs. A type
constructor looks like:
class Directive<T> {
someInput: T;
static ngTypeCtor<T>(init: Partial<Pick<Directive<T>, 'someInput'>>): Directive<T>;
}
It can be used to infer a type for T based on the input:
const _dir = Directive.ngTypeCtor({someInput: 'string'}); // Directive<T>

This commit introduces the "t2" API, which processes parsed template ASTs
and performs a number of functions such as binding (the process of
semantically interpreting cross-references within the template) and
directive matching. The API is modeled on TypeScript's TypeChecker API,
with oracle methods that give access to collected metadata.
This work is a prerequisite for the upcoming template type-checking
functionality, and will also become the basis for a refactored
TemplateDefinitionBuilder.

This commit adds a generic type parameter to the SelectorMatcher
class and its associated response types. This makes the API for
matching selectors and obtaining information about the matched
directives significantly more ergonomic and type-safe.
PR Close#26203
Upcoming implementation work for template type-checking will need to reuse the
code which matches directives inside a template, so this refactor commit moves
the code to a shared location in preparation.
This commit pulls the code needed to match directives against a template node
out of the TemplateDefinitionBuilder into a utility function, in preparation
for template type-checking and other TemplateDefinitionBuilder refactoring.

If the documentation contains a `@selectors` tag then the content of that
is used to describe the selectors of a directive.
Otherwise the selector string is split and each selector is listed as
a list item in an unordered list.

line 39: `highly-interactive` is the pre-qualifier of `Angular application`, which is the subject so the comma is not necessary (I think). I think this will make it easier for non-native speakers.

* Pull out `activateRoutes` into new operator
* Add `asyncTap` operator

* Clean up formatting
* Minor performance improvements

This is a major refactor of how the router previously worked. There are a couple major advantages of this refactor, and future work will be built on top of it.
First, we will no longer have multiple navigations running at the same time. Previously, a new navigation wouldn't cause the old navigation to be cancelled and cleaned up. Instead, multiple navigations could be going at once, and we imperatively checked that we were operating on the most current `router.navigationId` as we progressed through the Observable streams. This had some major faults, the biggest of which was async races where an ongoing async action could result in a redirect once the async action completed, but there was no way to guarantee there weren't also other redirects that would be queued up by other async actions. After this refactor, there's a single Observable stream that will get cleaned up each time a new navigation is requested.
Additionally, the individual pieces of routing have been pulled out into their own operators. While this was needed in order to create one continuous stream, it also will allow future improvements to the testing APIs as things such as Guards or Resolvers should now be able to be tested in much more isolation.
* Add the new `router.transitions` observable of the new `NavigationTransition` type to contain the transition information
* Update `router.navigations` to pipe off of `router.transitions`
* Re-write navigation Observable flow to a single configured stream
* Refactor `switchMap` instead of the previous `mergeMap` to ensure new navigations cause a cancellation and cleanup of already running navigations
* Wire in existing error and cancellation logic so cancellation matches previous behavior
