Previously, the compiler performed an incremental build by analyzing and
resolving all classes in the program (even unchanged ones) and then using
the dependency graph information to determine which .js files were stale and
needed to be re-emitted. This algorithm produced "correct" rebuilds, but the
cost of re-analyzing the entire program turned out to be higher than
anticipated, especially for component-heavy compilations.
To achieve performant rebuilds, it is necessary to reuse previous analysis
results if possible. Doing this safely requires knowing when prior work is
viable and when it is stale and needs to be re-done.
The new algorithm implemented by this commit is such:
1) Each incremental build starts with knowledge of the last known good
dependency graph and analysis results from the last successful build,
plus of course information about the set of files changed.
2) The previous dependency graph's information is used to determine the
set of source files which have "logically" changed. A source file is
considered logically changed if it or any of its dependencies have
physically changed (on disk) since the last successful compilation. Any
logically unchanged dependencies have their dependency information copied
over to the new dependency graph.
3) During the `TraitCompiler`'s loop to consider all source files in the
program, if a source file is logically unchanged then its previous
analyses are "adopted" (and their 'register' steps are run). If the file
is logically changed, then it is re-analyzed as usual.
4) Then, incremental build proceeds as before, with the new dependency graph
being used to determine the set of files which require re-emitting.
This analysis reuse avoids template parsing operations in many circumstances
and significantly reduces the time it takes ngtsc to rebuild a large
application.
Future work will increase performance even more, by tackling a variety of
other opportunities to reuse or avoid work.

With Angular CLI version 9 RC 3 we can run a single migration for a package using the name of the migration schematic.
We need to pass the schematic name as a value to the `migrate-only` option.
Ex:
```
ng update @angular/core --migrate-only migration-v9-undecorated-classes-with-di
```
See: https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/pull/16174
PR Close#33958
Currently TypeScript projects with an invalid tsconfig configuration,
cause the undecorated-classes-with-di migration to throw. Instead we
should gracefully exit the migration (like we do for syntactical
diagnostics), but report that there are configuration issues.
This issue surfaced when testing this migration in combination
with the Angular CLI migrations. One of the CLI migrations currently
causes invalid tsconfig files which then cause this issue in the
undecorated-classes-with-di migration.

Currently if one of the project targets could not be analyzed
due to AOT compiler program failures, we gracefully proceed
with the migration. This is expected, but we should not
print a message at the end of the migration that the migration
was _successful_. The migration was only done partially, hence
it's potentially incomplete and we should make it clear that once
the failures are resolved, the migration should be re-run.

With the next version of the CLI we don't need to add logging for the description of the schematic as part of the schematic itself.
This is because now, the CLI will print the description defined in the `migrations.json` file.

Angular v9 schematics should print out a link to the migration
guide associated with each schematic. This way, users have an
easy way to find more information about the automatic code
transformations they will see with `ng update`.

Current we need to create and override certain compiler host methods in every schematic because schematics use a virtual fs. We this change we extract this logic to a common util.
PR Close#32827
The creation of StaticReflector in createMetadataResolver() is a very expensive operation because it involves numerous module resolutions.
To make matter worse, since the API of the Reflector does not provide the ability to invalidate its internal caches, it has to be destroyed and recreated on *every* program change.
This has a HUGE impact on performance.
This PR fixes this problem by carefully invalidating all StaticSymbols in a file that has changed, thereby reducing the overhead of recomputation on program change.

Currently the undecorated-classes-with-di migration leverages NGC in order
to work with metadata resolution. Since NGC by default tries to resolve referenced
resources on initialization of the underlying TS program, it can result in unexpected
migration failures due to missing resource files.
This is especially an issue since the CLI wraps the `AngularCompilerProgram` with
special logic (i.e. to support SCSS preprocessing etc.). We don't have all of this since
we instantiate a vanilla NGC program.
The solution to the problem is to simply treat resource requests as valid, and returning
a fake content. The migration is not dependent on templates or stylesheets.. so it's the
simplest and most robust solution.

Currently the undecorated classes migration decorates base classes if no
explicit constructor is defined on all classes in the inheritance chain.
We only want to decorate base classes which define a constructor that is
inherited. Additionally for best practice, all classes in between the class
that inherits the constructor and the one that defines it are also decorated.

The `undecorated-classes-with-di` migration currently creates invalid object literals from parsed
NGC metadata files if there are object literal properties with keys that contain special characters.
e.g. consider a decorated base class with a host binding using `[class.X]`. Currently the migration
parses and converts the metadata to TypeScript code but incorrectly uses `[class.X]` unquoted as
identifier.

ec4381dd40 enabled Ivy by default. This is
problematic as migrations like `undecorated-classes-with-di` depend on the
`AngularCompilerProgram` (NGC) in order to perform the migration from
version 8 to version 9. In order to ensure that the migration always runs
with NGC (and doesn't get the `NgtscProgram`), we need to explicitly disable
ivy when creating the `@angular/compiler-cli` program for the migration.

Introduces a new migration schematic that follows the given
migration plan: https://hackmd.io/@alx/S1XKqMZeS.
First case: The schematic detects decorated directives which
inherit a constructor. The migration ensures that all base
classes until the class with the explicit constructor are
properly decorated with "@Directive()" or "@Component". In
case one of these classes is not decorated, the schematic
adds the abstract "@Directive()" decorator automatically.
Second case: The schematic detects undecorated declarations
and copies the inherited "@Directive()", "@Component" or
"@Pipe" decorator to the undecorated derived class. This
involves non-trivial import rewriting, identifier aliasing
and AOT metadata serializing
(as decorators are not always part of source files)
