This commit makes the `RadioControlRegistry` class tree-shakable by adding the `providedIn` property to its
`@Injectable` decorator. Now if the radio buttons are not used in the app (thus no `RadioControlValueAccessor`
directive is initialized), the `RadioControlRegistry` should not be included into application's prod bundle.

Currently the `Validators` class contains a number of static methods that represent different validators as well as some helper methods. Since class methods are not tree-shakable, any reference to the `Validator` class retains all of its methods (even if you've used just one).
This commit refactors the code to extract the logic into standalone functions and use these functions in the code instead of referencing them via `Validators` class. That should make the code more tree-shakable. The `Validators` class still retains its structure and calls these standalone methods internally to keep this change backwards-compatible.

This commit updates Forms code to avoid direct references to all built-in ControlValueAccessor classes, which
prevents their tree-shaking from production builds. Instead, a new static property is added to all built-in
ControlValueAccessors, which is checked when we need to identify whether a given ControlValueAccessors is a
built-in one.

Currently the code in the `FormGroupDirective` assumes that the shape of the underlying `FormGroup` never
changes and `FormControl`s are not replaced with other types. In practice this is possible and Forms code
should be able to process such changes in FormGroup shape.
This commit adds extra check to the `FormGroupDirective` class to avoid applying FormControl-specific to
other types.

This commit adds the missing `min` and `max` validators.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Previously `min` and `max` attributes defined on the `<input type="number">`
were ignored by Forms module. Now presence of these attributes would
trigger min/max validation logic (in case `formControl`, `formControlName`
or `ngModel` directives are also present on a given input) and
corresponding form control status would reflect that.

This commit updates `AbstractControlStatus` directive code to remove duplicated logic in getters and replaces

PR #39235 introduced additional cleanup logic for form controls and directives. The cleanup logic relies
on the presence of ControlValueAccessor instances on FormControlName and FormControl directives. In general
these fields are present and there are also checks to make sure that the mentioned directive instances are
created with CVAs. However some scenarios (primarily tests) may invoke the logic in a way that the directive
instance would not be fully initialized, thus causing CVA to be absent. As a result, the cleanup logic fails
while trying to call some methods on associated CVA instances.
This commit updates the cleanup logic to take into account the situation when CVA is not present.
Fixes#40521.

The `NgControlStatusGroup` directive is shared between template-driven and reactive form modules. In cases when
only reactive forms module is present, the `NgControlStatusGroup` directive is still activated on all `<form>`
elements, but if there is no other reactive directive applied (such as `formGroup`), corresponding `ControlContainer`
token is missing, thus causing exceptions (since `NgControlStatusGroup` directive relies on it to determine the
status). This commit updates the logic to handle the case when no `ControlContainer` is present (effectively making
directive logic a noop in this case).
Alternative approach (more risky) worth considering in the future is to split the `NgControlStatusGroup` into
2 directives with different set of selectors and include them into template-driven and reactive modules separately.
The downside is that these directives might be activated simultaneously on the same element (e.g. `<form>`),
effectively doing the work twice.

Prior to this commit, removing `FormControlDirective` and `FormGroupName` directive instances didn't clear
the callbacks previously registered on FromControl/FormGroup class instances. As a result, these callbacks
were executed even after `FormControlDirective` and `FormGroupName` directive instances were destroyed. That was
also causing memory leaks since these callbacks also retained references to DOM elements.
This commit updates the cleanup logic to take care of properly detaching FormControl/FormGroup/FormArray instances
from the view by removing view-specific callback at destroy time.

This commit adds `ngDevMode` guard to call `_ngModelWarning` only
in dev mode (similar to how things work in other parts of Ivy runtime code).
The `ngDevMode` flag helps to tree-shake this function from production builds

Currently when an instance of the `FormControlName` directive is destroyed, the Forms package invokes
the `cleanUpControl` to clear all directive-specific logic (such as validators, onChange handlers,
etc) from a bound control. The logic of the `cleanUpControl` function should revert all setup
performed by the `setUpControl` function. However the `cleanUpControl` is too aggressive and removes
all callbacks related to the onChange and disabled state handling. This is causing problems when
a form control is bound to multiple FormControlName` directives, causing other instances of that
directive to stop working correctly when the first one is destroyed.
This commit updates the cleanup logic to only remove callbacks added while setting up a control
for a given directive instance.
The fix is needed to allow adding `cleanUpControl` function to other places where cleanup is needed
(missing this function calls in some other places causes memory leak issues).
PR Close#39623
Prior to this commit, the `cleanUpControl` function (responsible for cleaning up control instance)
was not taking validators into account. As a result, these validators remain registered on a detached
form control instance, thus causing memory leaks. This commit updates the `cleanUpControl` function
logic to also run validators cleanup.
As a part of this change, the logic to setup and cleanup validators was refactored and moved to
separate functions (with completely opposite behavior), so that they can be reused in the future.
This commit doesn't add the `cleanUpControl` calls to all possible places, it just fixes the cases
where this function is being called, but doesn't fully perform a cleanup. The `cleanUpControl`
function calls will be added to other parts of code (to avoid more memory leaks) in a followup PR.

This commit refactors validators-related logic that is common across most of the directives.
A couple notes on this refactoring:
* common logic was moved to the `AbstractControlDirective` class (including `validator` and
`asyncValidator` getters)
* sync/async validators are now composed in `AbstractControlDirective` class eagerly when validators
are set with `_setValidators` and `_setAsyncValidators` calls and the result is stored in directive
instance (thus getters return cached versions of validator fn). This is needed to make sure composed
validator function remains the same (retains its identity) for a given directive instance, so that
this function can be added and later removed from an instance of an AbstractControl-based class
(like `FormControl`). Preserving validator function is required to perform proper cleanup (in followup
PRs) of the AbstractControl-based classes when a directive is destroyed.

Prior to this change, the `validators` and `asyncValidators` fields of a few Forms directives
were typed as `any[]`. This commit updates the types and makes them consistent for all directives
in the Forms package.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Directives in the `@angular/forms` package used to have `any[]` as a type of `validators` and
`asyncValidators` arguments in constructors. Now these arguments are properly typed, so if your
code relies on directive constructor types it may require some updates to improve type safety.

NG_VALUE_ACCESSOR is a multi injection token, users can and
should expect more than one ControlValueAccessor to be
available (and this is how it is used in @angular/forms).
This is now reflected in the definition of the injection token
by typing it as an array of ControlValueAccessor. The motivating
reason is that using the programmatic Injector api will now
type Injector#get correspondingly.
fixes#29351
BREAKING CHANGES
NG_VALUE_ACCESSOR is now typed as a readonly array rather than
a mutable scalar. It is used as a multi injection token and as
such it should always be expected that more than one accessor
may be returned.

Prior to this commit, a lot of internal-only class properties and methods (such as `ngOnChanges`)
of the Forms package directives were exposed on angular.io website. These fields are not expected
to be called externally (they are used/invoked by framework only), since they are part of internal
implementations of the following interfaces:
* Angular lifecycle hook interfaces
* ControlValueAccessor interface
* Validator interface
Having these internal-only fields in docs creates unnecessary noise on directive detail pages.
This commit adds the `@nodoc` annotation to these properties and methods to keep fields in the
golden files, but hide them in docs.

Remove `looseIdentical` implementation and instead use the ES2015 `Object.is` in its place.
They behave exactly the same way except for `+0`/`-0`.
`looseIdentical(+0, -0)` => `true`
`Object.is(+0, -0)` => `false`
Other than the difference noted above, this is not be a breaking change because:
1. `looseIdentical` is a private API
2. ES2015 is listed as a mandatory polyfill in the [browser support
guide](https://angular.io/guide/browser-support#mandatory-polyfills)

Prior to this commit, number input fields would to fire valueChanges twice: once for `input` events when typing and second for the `change` event when the field lost focus (both events happen at once when using the increment and decrement buttons on the number field).
Fixes#12540
BREAKING CHANGE: Number inputs no longer listen to the `change` event.
* Tests which trigger `change` events need to be updated to trigger `input` events instead.
* The `change` event was in place to support IE9, as we found that `input` events were not fired with backspace or cut actions. If you need to maintain IE9 support, you will need to add a change event listener to number inputs and call the `onChange` method of `NumberValueAccessor` manually.
* Lastly, old versions of WebDriver would synthetically trigger the `change` event on `WebElement.clear` and `WebElement.sendKeys`. If you are using an old version of WebDriver, you may need to update tests to ensure `input` events are triggered. For example, you could use `element.sendKeys(Keys.chord(Keys.CONTROL, "a"), Keys.BACK_SPACE);` in place of `element.clear()`.

With 5cecd97493025cd940c9ade4ea9f1836d5b05cc8 we intended to expand
the input type of the `disabled` input of the `NgModel` directive.
Read more about the reason for this in the actual commit message.
Currently though, the acceptance coercion member does not have any
effect. This is because the acceptance member needs to refer to the
actual input property name, and not to the public input name.
`disabled` corresponds to the `isDisabled` property.
PR Close#34502
NgModel internally coerces any arbitrary value that will assigned
to the `disabled` `@Input` to a boolean. This has been done to
support the common case where developers set the disabled attribute
without a value. For example:
```html
<input type="checkbox" [(ngModel)]="value" disabled>
```
This worked in View Engine without any errors because inputs were
not strictly checked. In Ivy though, developers can opt-in into
strict template type checking where the attribute would be flagged.
This is because the `NgModel#isDisabled` property type-wise only
accepts a `boolean`. To ensure that the common pattern described
above can still be used, and to reflect the actual runtime behavior,
we should add an acceptance member that makes it work without type
checking errors.
Using a coercion member means that this is not a breaking change.

This commit relaxes the type of the `formControlName` input to accept both a `string` and a `number`.
Currently, when using a `FormArray`, most templates look like:
```
<div formArrayName="tags">
<div *ngFor="let tag of tagsArray.controls; index as i">
<input [formControlName]="i">
</div>
</div>
```
Here `formControlName` receives a number whereas its input type is a string.
This is fine for VE and `fullTemplateTypeCheck`, but not for Ivy which does a more thorough type checking on inputs with `fullTemplateTypeCheck` enabled and throws `Type 'number' is not assignable to type 'string'`. It is fixable by using `formControlName="{{i}}"` but you have to know the difference between `a="{{b}}"` and `[a]="b"` and change it all over the application codebase. This commit allows the existing code to still type-check.
