It is quite common for the TS compiler to have to add synthetic
types to function signatures, where the developer has not
explicitly provided them. This results in `import(...)` expressions
appearing in typings files. For example in `@ngrx/data` there is a
class with a getter that has an implicit type:
```ts
export declare class EntityCollectionServiceBase<...> {
...
get store() {
return this.dispatcher.store;
}
...
}
```
In the d.ts file for this we get:
```ts
get store(): Store<import("@ngrx/data").EntityCache>;
```
Given that this file is within the `@ngrx/data` package already,
this caused ngcc to believe that there was a circular dependency,
causing it to fail to process the package - and in fact crash!
This commit resolves this problem by ignoring `import()` expressions
when scanning typings programs for dependencies. This ability was
only introduced very recently in a 10.0.0 RC release, and so it has
limited benefit given that up till now ngcc has been able to process
libraries effectively without it. Moreover, in the rare case that a
package does have such a dependency, it should get picked up
by the sync ngcc+CLI integration point.

This commit removes the autocompletion feature for HTML entities.
HTML entites are things like `&`, `<` etc.
There are a few reasons for the decision:
1. It is outside the core functionality of Angular LS
2. The implementation relies on regex, which incurs performance cost
3. There isn't much value if users do not already know which entity
they want to use
4. The list that we provide is not exhaustive
PR Close#37515
In v7 of Angular we removed `tsickle` from the default `ngc` pipeline.
This had the negative potential of breaking ES2015 output and SSR due
to a limitation in TypeScript.
TypeScript by default preserves type information for decorated constructor
parameters when `emitDecoratorMetadata` is enabled. For example,
consider this snippet below:
```
@Directive()
export class MyDirective {
constructor(button: MyButton) {}
}
export class MyButton {}
```
TypeScript would generate metadata for the `MyDirective` class it has
a decorator applied. This metadata would be needed in JIT mode, or
for libraries that provide `MyDirective` through NPM. The metadata would
look as followed:
```
let MyDirective = class MyDir {}
MyDirective = __decorate([
Directive(),
__metadata("design:paramtypes", [MyButton]),
], MyDirective);
let MyButton = class MyButton {}
```
Notice that TypeScript generated calls to `__decorate` and
`__metadata`. These calls are needed so that the Angular compiler
is able to determine whether `MyDirective` is actually an directive,
and what types are needed for dependency injection.
The limitation surfaces in this concrete example because `MyButton`
is declared after the `__metadata(..)` call, while `__metadata`
actually directly references `MyButton`. This is illegal though because
`MyButton` has not been declared at this point. This is due to the
so-called temporal dead zone in JavaScript. Errors like followed will
be reported at runtime when such file/code evaluates:
```
Uncaught ReferenceError: Cannot access 'MyButton' before initialization
```
As noted, this is a TypeScript limitation because ideally TypeScript
shouldn't evaluate `__metadata`/reference `MyButton` immediately.
Instead, it should defer the reference until `MyButton` is actually
declared. This limitation will not be fixed by the TypeScript team
though because it's a limitation as per current design and they will
only revisit this once the tc39 decorator proposal is finalized
(currently stage-2 at time of writing).
Given this wontfix on the TypeScript side, and our heavy reliance on
this metadata in libraries (and for JIT mode), we intend to fix this
from within the Angular compiler by downleveling decorators to static
properties that don't need to evaluate directly. For example:
```
MyDirective.ctorParameters = () => [MyButton];
```
With this snippet above, `MyButton` is not referenced directly. Only
lazily when the Angular runtime needs it. This mitigates the temporal
dead zone issue caused by a limitation in TypeScript's decorator
metadata output. See: https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/27519.
In the past (as noted; before version 7), the Angular compiler by
default used tsickle that already performed this transformation. We
moved the transformation to the CLI for JIT and `ng-packager`, but now
we realize that we can move this all to a single place in the compiler
so that standalone ngc consumers can benefit too, and that we can
disable tsickle in our Bazel `ngc-wrapped` pipeline (that currently
still relies on tsickle to perform this decorator processing).
This transformation also has another positive side-effect of making
Angular application/library code more compatible with server-side
rendering. In principle, TypeScript would also preserve type information
for decorated class members (similar to how it did that for constructor
parameters) at runtime. This becomes an issue when your application
relies on native DOM globals for decorated class member types. e.g.
```
@Input() panelElement: HTMLElement;
```
Your application code would then reference `HTMLElement` directly
whenever the source file is loaded in NodeJS for SSR. `HTMLElement`
does not exist on the server though, so that will become an invalid
reference. One could work around this by providing global mocks for
these DOM symbols, but that doesn't match up with other places where
dependency injection is used for mocking DOM/browser specific symbols.
More context in this issue: #30586. The TL;DR here is that the Angular
compiler does not care about types for these class members, so it won't
ever reference `HTMLElement` at runtime.

In #29083 a call to `getCompilerFacade` was added to `ApplicationRef` which pulls in a bit of JIT-specific code. Since the code path that calls the function can't be hit for an AOT-compiled app, these changes add an `ngJitMode` guard which will allow for dead code elimination to drop it completely. Testing it out against a new CLI project showed a difference of ~1.2kb.

Looks like we broke the `hasLocalChanges` check in the git client
when we moved it over from the merge script. The problem is that
we are using `git` in the first argument of `git.run`. That
means that we under-the-hood run `git git <..>`.
This commit fixes that, but also switches to a better variant
for ensuring no local changes because it exits with non-zero
when there are local changes.

Previously, we would simply prepend any relative URL with the HREF
for the current route (pulled from document.location). However,
this does not correctly account for the leading slash URLs that
would otherwise be parsed correctly in the browser, or the
presence of a base HREF in the DOM.
Therefore, we use the built-in URL implementation for NodeJS,
which implements the WHATWG standard that's used in the browser.
We also pull the base HREF from the DOM, falling back on the full
HREF as the browser would, to form the correct request URL.

Keen and I were talking about what it would take to support getting
references at a position in the current language service, since it's
unclear when more investment in the Ivy LS will be available. Getting TS
references from a template is trivial -- we simply need to get the
definition of a symbol, which is already handled by the language
service, and ask the TS language service to give us the references for
that definition.
This doesn't handle references in templates, but that could be done in a
subsequent pass.

Fixes#20402
PR Close#37301
This PR provides a more helpful error than the one currently present:
`el.setAttribute is not a function`. It is not valid to have directives with host bindings
on `ng-template` or `ng-container` nodes. VE would silently ignore this, while Ivy
attempts to set the attribute and throws an error because these are comment nodes
and do not have `setAttribute` functionality.
It is better to throw a helpful error than to silently ignore this because
putting a directive with host binding on an `ng-template` or `ng-container` is most often a mistake.
Developers should be made aware that the host binding will have no effect in these cases.
Note that an error is already thrown in Ivy, as mentioned above, so this
is not a breaking change and can be merged to both master and patch.

This commit removes all markers from the inline template in
`AppComponent` and external template in `TemplateReference`.
Test scenarios should be colocated with the test cases themselves.
Besides, many existing cases are invalid. For example, if we want to
test autocomplete for HTML element, the existing test case is like:
```
<~{cursor} h1>
```
This doesn't make much sense, becasue the language service already sees
the `h1` tag in the template. The correct test case should be:
```
<~{cursor
```
IMO, this reflects the real-world use case better.
This commit also uncovers a bug in the way HTML entities autocompletion
is done. There's an off-by-one error in which a cursor that immediately
trails the ampersand character fails to trigger HTML entities
autocompletion.

**Problem**
After #31109 and #31865, it's still possible to get locked in state
`EXISTING_CLIENTS_ONLY`, without any possibility to get out (even by
pushing new updates on the server).
More specifically, if control doc `/latest` of `ngsw:/:db:control` once
gets a bad value, then the service worker will fail early, and won't be
able to overwrite `/latest` with new, valid values (the ones from future
updates).
For example, once in this state, URL `/ngsw/state` will show:
NGSW Debug Info:
Driver state: EXISTING_CLIENTS_ONLY (Degraded due to failed initialization: Invariant violated (initialize): latest hash 8b75… has no known manifest
Error: Invariant violated (initialize): latest hash 8b75… has no known manifest
at Driver.<anonymous> (https://my.app/ngsw-worker.js:2302:27)
at Generator.next (<anonymous>)
at fulfilled (https://my.app/ngsw-worker.js:175:62))
Latest manifest hash: 8b75…
Last update check: 22s971u
... with hash `8b75…` corresponding to no installed version.
**Solution**
Currently, when such a case happens, the service worker [simply fails
with an assertion][1]. Because this failure happens early, and is not
handled, the service worker is not able to update `/latest` to new
installed app versions.
I propose to detect this corrupted case (a `latest` hash that doesn't
match any installed version) a few lines above, so that the service
worker can correctly call its [already existing cleaning code][2].

Previously, event listeners for component output events attached on an
Angular custom element before inserting it into the DOM (i.e. before
instantiating the underlying component) didn't fire for events emitted
during initialization lifecycle hooks, such as `ngAfterContentInit`,
`ngAfterViewInit`, `ngOnChanges` (initial call) and `ngOnInit`.
The reason was that that `NgElementImpl` [subscribed to events][1]
_after_ calling [ngElementStrategy#connect()][2], which is where the
[initial change detection][3] takes place (running the initialization
lifecycle hooks).
This commit fixes this by:
1. Ensuring `ComponentNgElementStrategy#events` is defined and available
for subscribing to, even before instantiating the component.
2. Ensuring `NgElementImpl` subscribes to `NgElementStrategy#events`
before calling `NgElementStrategy#connect()` (which initializes the
component instance).
