Pete Bacon Darwin a4f3f3f81d build(docs-infra): support doc aliases via `@alias` dgeni tag (#29673)
Now, one can add an `@alias` tag to API docs, which tells dgeni that this
API element (usually a `const`) is really just an alias for some API element
defined elsewhere.

Dgeni will then look up this API element and copy over the properties from
the alias to the current doc.

For example, we would like to privately export an Enum from `@angular/core`
but then publicly export this from `@angular/common`:

**packages/core/private_exports.ts**

```ts
/**
 * Description of this document.
 */
export enum ɵSomeEnum { ... }
```

**packages/common/public_api.ts**

```ts
import {ɵSomeEnum} from '@angular/core';

 /**
 * @alias core/ɵSomeEnum
 */
export const SomeEnum = ɵSomeEnum;
```

In the generated docs there will be a page for `common/SomeEnum`, which
will be rendered as an enum, rather than a const, showing the description
extracted from the `core/ɵSomeEnum`.

---

The implementation of this feature required some refactoring of the other
processing:

1. Previously `ɵ` prefixed exports were not even considered.
2. Due to 1. some processors needed to have guards added to ignore such
   private exports (`addMetadataAliases` and `checkContentRules`).
3. The processing of package pages had to be reworked (and split) so that
   it picked up the aliased export docs after their alias proeprties had
   been copied.

Pete Bacon Darwin b94436d86c build(docs-infra): process and render ngmodule exports (#25734)
All directives and pipes must now be tagged with one ore more
public NgModule, from which they are exported.

If an item is exported transitively via a re-exported internal NgModule
then it may be that the item appears to be exported from more than
one public NgModule. For example, there are shared directives that
are exported in this way from `FormsModule` and `ReactiveFormsModule`.

The doc-gen will error and fail if a directive or pipe is not tagged correctly.

NgModule pages now list all the directives and pipes that are exported from it.
Directive and Pipe pages now list any NgModule from which they are exported.
Packages also now list any NgModules that are contained - previously they were
missed.
