Add new method `historyGo`, that will let
the user navigate to a specific page from session history identified by its
relative position to the current page.
We add some tests to `location_spec.ts` to validate the behavior of the
`historyGo` and `forward` methods.
Add more tests for `location_spec` to test `location.historyGo(0)`, `location.historyGo()`,
`location.historyGo(100)` and `location.historyGo(-100)`. We also add new tests for
`Integration` spec to validate the navigation when we using
`location#historyGo`.
Update the `historyGo` function docs
Note that this was made an optional function in the abstract classes to
avoid a breaking change. Because our location classes use `implements PlatformLocation`
rather than `extends PlatformLocation`, simply adding a default
implementation was not sufficient to make this a non-breaking change.
While we could fix the classes internal to Angular, this would still have been
a breaking change for any external developers who may have followed our
implementations as an example.

With this change we move `XhrFactory` to the root entrypoint of `@angular/commmon`, this is needed so that we can configure `XhrFactory` DI token at a platform level, and not add a dependency between `@angular/platform-browser` and `@angular/common/http`.
Currently, when using `HttpClientModule` in a child module on the server, `ReferenceError: XMLHttpRequest is not defined` is being thrown because the child module has its own Injector and causes `XhrFactory` provider to be configured to use `BrowserXhr`.
Therefore, we should configure the `XhrFactory` at a platform level similar to other Browser specific providers.
BREAKING CHANGE:
`XhrFactory` has been moved from `@angular/common/http` to `@angular/common`.
**Before**
```ts
import {XhrFactory} from '@angular/common/http';
```
**After**
```ts
import {XhrFactory} from '@angular/common';
```

In the new behavior Angular cleanups `popstate` and `hashchange` event listeners
when the root view gets destroyed, thus event handlers are not added twice
when the application is bootstrapped again.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Methods of the `PlatformLocation` class, namely `onPopState` and `onHashChange`,
used to return `void`. Now those methods return functions that can be called
to remove event handlers.

Before `unknown` was available, the `never` type was used to discourage
application developers from using "private" properties. The `unknown` type
is much better suited for this.

As only methods from the Subscribable interface are currently used in the
implementation of the async pipe, it makes sense to make it explicit so
that it works successfully with any other implementation instead of
only Observable.
PR Close#39627
Even in the overloads, state that it can accept `null` and
`undefined`, in order to ensure easy composition with `async`.
Additionally, change the implementation to return `null` on an
`undefined` input, for consistency with other pipes.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The `slice` pipe now returns `null` for the `undefined` input value,
which is consistent with the behavior of most pipes. If you rely on
`undefined` being the result in that case, you now need to check for it
explicitly.
PR Close#37447
As shown in the tests, `KeyValuePipe.transform` can accept
`undefined`, in which case it always returns `null`.
Additionally, the typing for `string` keys can be made generic, so the
comparison function is only required to accept the relevant cases.
Finally, the typing for `number` records now shows that the comparison
function and the result entries will actually receive the string version
of the numeric keys, just as shown in the tests.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The typing of the `keyvalue` pipe has been fixed to report that for
input objects that have `number` keys, the result will contain the
string representation of the keys. This was already the case and the
code has simply been updated to reflect this. Please update the
consumers of the pipe output if they were relying on the incorrect
types. Note that this does not affect use cases where the input values
are `Map`s, so if you need to preserve `number`s, this is an effective
way.

I18nPluralPipe can actually accept `null` and `undefined` (which are
convenient for composing it with the async pipe), but it is currently
typed to only accept `number`.

Make typing of number pipes stricter to catch some misuses (such as
passing an Observable or an array) at compile time.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The signatures of the number pipes now explicitly state which types are
accepted. This should only cause issues in corner cases, as any other
values would result in runtime exceptions.

Make typing of DatePipe stricter to catch some misuses (such as passing
an Observable or an array) at compile time.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The signature of the `date` pipe now explicitly states which types are
accepted. This should only cause issues in corner cases, as any other
values would result in runtime exceptions.

`AsyncPipe.transform` will never return `undefined`, even when passed
`undefined` in input, in contrast with what was declared in the
overloads.
Additionally the "actual" method signature can be updated to match the
most generic case, since the implementation does not rely on wrappers
anymore.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The async pipe no longer claims to return `undefined` for an input that
was typed as `undefined`. Note that the code actually returned `null` on
`undefined` inputs. In the unlikely case you were relying on this,
please fix the typing of the consumers of the pipe output.

The old implementation of case conversion types can handle several
values which are not strings, but the signature did not reflect this.
The new one reports errors when falsy non-string inputs are given to
the pipe (such as `false` or `0`) and has a new signature which
instead reflects the behaviour on `null` and `undefined`.
Fixes#36259
BREAKING CHANGE:
The case conversion pipes no longer let falsy values through. They now
map both `null` and `undefined` to `null` and raise an exception on
invalid input (`0`, `false`, `NaN`) just like most "common pipes". If
your code required falsy values to pass through, you need to handle them
explicitly.

To discourage developers from mutating the arrays returned
from the following methods, their return types have been marked
as readonly.
* `getLocaleDayPeriods()`
* `getLocaleDayNames()`
* `getLocaleMonthNames()`
* `getLocaleEraNames()`
Fixes#27003
BREAKING CHANGE:
The locale data API has been marked as returning readonly arrays, rather
than mutable arrays, since these arrays are shared across calls to the
API. If you were mutating them (e.g. calling `sort()`, `push()`, `splice()`, etc)
then your code will not longer compile. If you need to mutate the array, you
should now take a copy (e.g. by calling `slice()`) and mutate the copy.

When the `NgIf` directive is used in a template, its context variables
can be used to capture the bound value. This is sometimes used in
complex expressions, where the resulting value is captured in a
context variable. There's two syntax forms available:
1. Binding to `NgIfContext.ngIf` using the `as` syntax:
```html
<span *ngIf="enabled && user as u">{{u.name}}</span>
```
2. Binding to `NgIfContext.$implicit` using the `let` syntax:
```html
<span *ngIf="enabled && user; let u">{{u.name}}</span>
```
Because of the semantics of `ngIf`, it is known that the captured
context variable is truthy, however the template type checker
would not consider them as such and still report errors when
`strict` is enabled.
This commit updates `NgIf`'s context guard to make the types of the
context variables truthy, avoiding the issue.

ReadonlyMap is a superset of Map, in keyValuePipe we do not change the value of the object so ReadonlyPipe Works right in this case and we can accomodate more types. To accomodate more types added ReadonlyMap in Key Value pipe.
Fixes#37308
PR Close#37311
`KeyValuePipe` currently accepts `null` values as well as `Map`s and a
few others. However, due to the way in which TS overloads work, a type
of `T|null` will not be accepted by `KeyValuePipe`'s signatures, even
though both `T` and `null` individually would be.
To make this work, each signature that accepts some type `T` has been
duplicated with a second one below it that accepts a `T|null` and
includes `null` in its return type.
