Similar to interpolation, we do not want to completely remove whitespace
nodes that are siblings of an expansion.
For example, the following template
```html
<div>
<strong>items left<strong> {count, plural, =1 {item} other {items}}
</div>
```
was being collapsed to
```html
<div><strong>items left<strong>{count, plural, =1 {item} other {items}}</div>
```
which results in the text looking like
```
items left4
```
instead it should be collapsed to
```html
<div><strong>items left<strong> {count, plural, =1 {item} other {items}}</div>
```
which results in the text looking like
```
items left 4
```

Template AST nodes for (bound) attributes, variables and references will
now retain a reference to the source span of their value, which allows
for more accurate type check diagnostics.
PR Close#30181
Currently, template expressions and statements have their location
recorded relative to the HTML element they are in, with no handle to
absolute location in a source file except for a line/column location.
However, the line/column location is also not entirely accurate, as it
points an entire semantic expression, and not necessarily the start of
an expression recorded by the expression parser.
To support record of the source code expressions originate from, add a
new `sourceSpan` field to `ASTWithSource` that records the absolute byte
offset of an expression within a source code.

There's no build time dependency from @angular/core to @angular/compiler,
so core can't directly refer to compiler types. To overcome this limitation,
there's a facade layer defined in the compiler and duplicated in core,
such that during runtime all types will correctly align.
There's a testcase in the compiler that verifies that all such facade types
are compatible across core and compiler, such that the core types can't get
misaligned with the actual definitions in the compiler. This suite of
tests were missing the `R3BaseMetadataFacade` facade type, so it was possible
for this type to get out of sync.

Previously, Template.templateAttrs was introduced to capture attribute
bindings which originated from microsyntax (e.g. bindings in *ngFor="...").
This means that a Template node can have two different structures, depending
on whether it originated from microsyntax or from a literal <ng-template>.
In the literal case, the node behaves much like an Element node, it has
attributes, inputs, and outputs which determine which directives apply.
In the microsyntax case, though, only the templateAttrs should be used
to determine which directives apply.
Previously, both the t2_binder and the TemplateDefinitionBuilder were using
the wrong set of attributes to match directives - combining the attributes,
inputs, outputs, and templateAttrs of the Template node regardless of its
origin. In the TDB's case this wasn't a problem, since the TDB collects a
global Set of directives used in the template, so it didn't matter whether
the directive was also recognized on the <ng-template>. t2_binder's API
distinguishes between directives on specific nodes, though, so it's more
sensitive to mismatching.
In particular, this showed up as an assertion failure in template type-
checking in certain cases, when a directive was accidentally matched on
a microsyntax template element and also had a binding which referenced a
variable declared in the microsyntax. This resulted in the type-checker
attempting to generate a reference to a variable that didn't exist in that
scope.
The fix is to distinguish between the two cases and select the appropriate
set of attributes to match on accordingly.
Testing strategy: tested in the t2_binder tests.

In some cases ivy expects projectable nodes to be passed in a different order
to ViewEngine. Specifically, ivy expects the catch-all ("*") to be at index
0, whereas ViewEngine expects it to be at its position at which it was parsed
in the template.
This commit adds one test that breaks under ivy and others that just describe
more accurately what happens in corner cases.

BREAKING CHANGE:
Certain elements (like `<tr>` or `<col>`) require parent elements to be of a certain type by the HTML specification
(ex. <tr> can only be inside <tbody> / <thead>). Before this change Angular template parser was auto-correcting
"invalid" HTML using the following rules:
- `<tr>` would be wrapped in `<tbody>` if not inside `<tbody>`, `<tfoot>` or `<thead>`;
- `<col>` would be wrapped in `<colgroup>` if not inside `<colgroup>`.
This meachanism of automatic wrapping / auto-correcting was problematic for several reasons:
- it is non-obvious and arbitrary (ex. there are more HTML elements that has rules for parent type);
- it is incorrect for cases where `<tr>` / `<col>` are at the root of a component's content, ex.:
```html
<projecting-tr-inside-tbody>
<tr>...</tr>
</projecting-tr-inside-tbody>
```
In the above example the `<projecting-tr-inside-tbody>` component culd be "surprised" to see additional
`<tbody>` elements inserted by Angular HTML parser.

Currently with ViewEngine, if someone runs the platform's
`bootstrapModule` method in order to boostrap a module in
JIT mode, external component resources are properly resolved
*automatically*.
Currently with Ivy, the developer would need to manually call
`resolveComponentResources` in order to asynchronously fetch
the determined external component resources. In order to make
this backwards compatible with ViewEngine, and also since
platforms can already specify a `ResourceLoader` compiler
provider, we need to automatically resolve all external
component resources on module bootstrap.
--
Since the `ResourceLoader` is part of the `@angular/compiler`,
because ViewEngine performed the factory creation in the compiler,
we can't access the `ResourceLoader` token from within core.
In order to workaround this without introducing a breaking change,
we just proxy the `ResourceLoader` token to `core` through the
compiler facade. In the future, we should be able to move the
`ResourceLoader` to core when ViewEngine code no longer exists in
the `@angular/compiler`.

The content projection mechanism is static, in that it only looks at the static
template nodes before directives are matched and change detection is run.
When you have a selector-based content projection the selection is based
on nodes that are available in the template.
For example:
```
<ng-content selector="[some-attr]"></ng-content>
```
would match
```
<div some-attr="..."></div>
```
If you have an inline-template in your projected nodes. For example:
```
<div *ngIf="..." some-attr="..."></div>
```
This gets pre-parsed and converted to a canonical form.
For example:
```
<ng-template [ngIf]="...">
<div some-attr=".."></div>
</ng-template>
```
Note that only structural attributes (e.g. `*ngIf`) stay with the `<ng-template>`
node. The other attributes move to the contained element inside the template.
When this happens in ivy, the ng-template content is removed
from the component template function and is compiled into its own
template function. But this means that the information about the
attributes that were on the content are lost and the projection
selection mechanism is unable to match the original
`<div *ngIf="..." some-attr>`.
This commit adds support for this in ivy. Attributes are separated into three
groups (Bindings, Templates and "other"). For inline-templates the Bindings
and "other" types are hoisted back from the contained node to the `template()`
instruction, so that they can be used in content projection matching.
PR Close#29041
Previously the start of a character indicated by an escape sequence
was being incorrectly computed by the lexer, which caused tokens
to include the start of the escaped character sequence in the
preceding token. In particular this affected the name extracted
from opening tags if the name was terminated by an escape sequence.
For example, `<t\n>` would have the name `t\` rather than `t`.
This fix refactors the lexer to use a "cursor" object to iterate over
the characters in the template source. There are two cursor implementations,
one expects a simple string, the other expects a string that contains
JavaScript escape sequences that need to be unescaped.
PR Close#28978
The parts of a token are supposed to be an array of not-null strings,

Prior to this change i18n block bindings were converted to Expressions right away (once we first access them), when in non-i18n cases we processed them differently: the actual conversion happens at instructions generation. Because of this discrepancy, the output for bindings in i18n blocks was generated incorrectly (with invalid indicies in pipeBindN fns and invalid references to non-existent local variables). Now the bindings processing is unified and i18nExp instructions should contain right bind expressions.
PR Close#28969
During build time we remap particular property bindings, because their names don't match their attribute equivalents (e.g. the property for the `for` attribute is called `htmlFor`). This breaks down if the particular element has an input that has the same name, because the property gets mapped to something invalid.
The following changes address the issue by mapping the name during runtime, because that's when directives are resolved and we know all of the inputs that are associated with a particular element.
PR Close#28765
With #28594 we refactored the `@angular/compiler` slightly to
allow opting out from external symbol re-exports which are
enabled by default.
Since symbol re-exports only benefit projects which have a
very strict dependency enforcement, external symbols should
not be re-exported by default as this could grow the size of
factory files and cause unexpected behavior with Angular's
AOT symbol resolving (e.g. see: #25644).
Note that the common strict dependency enforcement for source
files does still work with external symbol re-exports disabled,
but there are also strict dependency checks that enforce strict
module dependencies also for _generated files_ (such as the
ngfactory files). This is how Google3 manages it's dependencies
and therefore external symbol re-exports need to be enabled within
Google3.
Also "ngtsc" also does not provide any way of using external symbol
re-exports, so this means that with this change, NGC can partially
match the behavior of "ngtsc" then (unless explicitly opted-out).
As mentioned before, internally at Google symbol re-exports need to
be still enabled, so the `ng_module` Bazel rule will enable the symbol
re-exports by default when running within Blaze.
Fixes#25644.

When tokenizing markup (e.g. HTML) element attributes
can have quoted or unquoted values (e.g. `a=b` or `a="b"`).
The `ATTR_VALUE` tokens were capturing the quotes, which

Now the tokenizer captures additional `ATTR_QUOTE` tokens,

In order to support source mapping of templates, we need
to be able to tokenize the template in its original context.
When the template is defined inline as a JavaScript string
in a TS/JS source file, the tokenizer must be able to handle
string escape sequences, such as `\n` and `\"` as they
appear in the original source file.
This commit teaches the lexer how to unescape these
sequences, but only when the `escapedString` option is
set to true. Otherwise there is no change to the tokenizing
behaviour.
PR Close#28055
The lexer that does the tokenizing can now process only a part the source
string, by passing a `range` property in the `options` argument. The
locations of the nodes that are tokenized will now take into account the
position of the span in the context of the original source string.
This `range` option is, in turn, exposed from the template parser as well.
Being able to process parts of files helps to enable SourceMap support
when compiling inline component templates.

This commit consolidates the options that can modify the
parsing of text (e.g. HTML, Angular templates, CSS, i18n)
into an AST for further processing into a single `options`
hash.
This makes the code cleaner and more readable, but also
enables us to support further options to parsing without
triggering wide ranging changes to code that should not
be affected by these new options. Specifically, it will let
us pass information about the placement of a template
that is being parsed in its containing file, which is essential
for accurate SourceMap processing.

Currently external static symbols which are referenced by AOT
compiler generated code, will be re-exported in the corresponding
`.ngfactory` files.
This way of handling the symbol resolution has been introduced in
favor of avoding dynamically generated module dependencies. This
behavior therefore avoids any strict dependency failures.
Read more about a particular scenario here: https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/25644#issuecomment-458354439
Now with `ngtsc`, this behavior has changed since `ngtsc` just
introduces these module dependencies in order to properly reference
the external symbol from its original location (also eliminating the need
for factories). Similarly we should provide a way to use the same
behavior with `ngc` because the downside of using the re-exported symbol
resolution is that user-code transformations (e.g. the `ngInjectableDef`
metadata which is added to the user source code), can resolve external
symbols to previous factory symbol re-exports. This is a critical issue
because it means that the actual JIT code references factory files in order
to access external symbols. This means that the generated output cannot
shipped to NPM without shipping the referenced factory files.
A specific example has been reported here: https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/25644#issue-353554070
