In 6cff877 we broke the decorator docs because the
doc-gen no longer knew how to identify them.
This commit updates the dgeni processor responsible
for identifying the decorators in the code and ensures
that the docs are now generated correctly.

`@angular/platform-server` provides the foundation for rendering an
Angular app on the server. In order to achieve that, it uses a
server-side DOM implementation (currently [domino][1]).
For rendering on the server to work as closely as possible to running
the app on the browser, we need to make DOM globals (such as `Element`,
`HTMLElement`, etc.), which are normally provided by the browser,
available as globals on the server as well.
Currently, `@angular/platform-server` achieves this by extending the
`global` object with the DOM implementation provided by `domino`. This
assignment happens in the [setDomTypes()][2] function, which is
[called in a `PLATFORM_INITIALIZER`][3]. While this works in most cases,
there are some scenarios where the DOM globals are needed sooner (i.e.
before initializing the platform). See, for example, #24551 and #39950
for more details on such issues.
This commit provides a way to solve this problem by exposing a
side-effect-ful entry-point (`@angular/platform-server/init`), that
shims the `global` object with DOM globals. People will be able to
import this entry-point in their server-rendered apps before
bootstrapping the app (for example, in their `main.server.ts` file).
(See also [#39950 (comment)][4].)
In a future update, the [`universal` schematics][5] will include such an
import by default in newly generated projects.

PR Close#40559
Previously, if an entry-point had no public exports (such as the
`@angular/platform-server/shims` introduced in #40559, which is a
side-effect-ful entry-point), it was incorrectly marked as having all
its exports deprecated (which marks the entry-point as deprecated as
well).
This commit fixes this by ensuring that an entry-point is not marked as
having all its exports deprecated if it has no public exports.

This tag-def is being used in the `platform-server` source code,
and was causing warnings in the doc-gen. Adding support
prevents the warning from being shown.
Other than that this change has no effect on the generated
documentation, since the `@default` tag is not used in any
templates.

In the code base there are cases where there is, conceptually, a class
that is represented by a combination of an `interface`
(type declaration) and a `const` (value declaration).
For example:
```
export interface SomeClass {
count(a?: string): number;
}
export const: SomeClass = class {
someMethod(a: string = ''): number { ... }
};
```
These were being rendered as interfaces and also not
correctly showing the descriptions and default parameter
values.
In this commit such concepts are now rendered as classes.
The classes that are affected by this are:
* `DebugElement`
* `DebugNode`
* `Type`
* `EventEmitter`
* `TestBed`
Note that while decorators are also defined in this form
they have their own rendering type (`decorator`) and so
are not affecte by this.

Abstract directives cannot be part of a `@NgModule`, but the AIO dgeni
setup currently enforces this. This commit updates the logic so that
abstract directives are skipped.

Adds the ability to expose global symbols in the API docs via the `@globalApi` tag. Also supports optionally setting a namespace which will be added to the name automatically (e.g. `foo` will be renamed to `ng.foo`). Relevant APIs should also be exported through the `global.ts` file which will show up under `core/global`.

Injectable defs are not considered public API, so the property
that contains them should be prefixed with Angular's marker
for "private" ('ɵ') to discourage apps from relying on def
APIs directly.
This commit adds the prefix and shortens the name from
ngInjectableDef to "prov" (for "provider", since injector defs
are known as "inj"). This is because property names cannot
be minified by Uglify without turning on property mangling
(which most apps have turned off) and are thus size-sensitive.

Adds two new helper functions that can be used when unit testing Angular services
that depend upon upgraded AngularJS services, or vice versa.
The functions return a module (AngularJS or NgModule) that is configured to wire up
the Angular and AngularJS injectors without the need to actually bootstrap a full
hybrid application.
This makes it simpler and faster to unit test services.

There is an encoding issue with using delta `Δ`, where the browser will attempt to detect the file encoding if the character set is not explicitly declared on a `<script/>` tag, and Chrome will find the `Δ` character and decide it is window-1252 encoding, which misinterprets the `Δ` character to be some other character that is not a valid JS identifier character
So back to the frog eyes we go.

Now, one can add an `@alias` tag to API docs, which tells dgeni that this
API element (usually a `const`) is really just an alias for some API element
defined elsewhere.
Dgeni will then look up this API element and copy over the properties from
the alias to the current doc.
For example, we would like to privately export an Enum from `@angular/core`
but then publicly export this from `@angular/common`:
**packages/core/private_exports.ts**
```ts
/**
* Description of this document.
*/
export enum ɵSomeEnum { ... }
```
**packages/common/public_api.ts**
```ts
import {ɵSomeEnum} from '@angular/core';
/**
* @alias core/ɵSomeEnum
*/
export const SomeEnum = ɵSomeEnum;
```
In the generated docs there will be a page for `common/SomeEnum`, which
will be rendered as an enum, rather than a const, showing the description
extracted from the `core/ɵSomeEnum`.
---
The implementation of this feature required some refactoring of the other
processing:
1. Previously `ɵ` prefixed exports were not even considered.
2. Due to 1. some processors needed to have guards added to ignore such
private exports (`addMetadataAliases` and `checkContentRules`).
3. The processing of package pages had to be reworked (and split) so that
it picked up the aliased export docs after their alias proeprties had
been copied.

Currently our plan is to skip the publish, docgen, and update steps for this package.
During RC, we'll determine if the breaking change is too difficult for users, in which case we might restore the package for another major.

This commit includes the following changes:
* CLI version information is read from the CLI package from which
we read the help files.
* CLI API pages now contain GH links
* line numbers are not shown in GH links, if the doc does not
have a truthy `startingLine` value. This allows us to remove
hard coded checks for `guide` pages
* content pages and CLI api docs no longer have a `startingLine`
* the hard-coded `packages` path segment has been removed from
the templates; instead we now only use the `realProjectRelativePath`.
* the `realProjectRelativePath` has been updated accordingly for API
and CLI API docs.

If the documentation contains a `@selectors` tag then the content of that
is used to describe the selectors of a directive.
Otherwise the selector string is split and each selector is listed as
a list item in an unordered list.

The default dgeni config is to concatenate leading comments in front of API items.
In the case that you have an API item that starts a file with no import statements,
the license comment at the top of the file was being added to the front of the
API item's comment. SInce the license comment includes the `@license` tag
and the API item's comment did not start with `@description` the content of
the API item's comment was being put inside the `@license` tag, and no
description was being extracted from the API item's comment.
This commit updates to a version of dgeni-packages that has a switch to turn off
this concatenation, and then also configures this switch.

All directives and pipes must now be tagged with one ore more
public NgModule, from which they are exported.
If an item is exported transitively via a re-exported internal NgModule
then it may be that the item appears to be exported from more than
one public NgModule. For example, there are shared directives that
are exported in this way from `FormsModule` and `ReactiveFormsModule`.
The doc-gen will error and fail if a directive or pipe is not tagged correctly.
NgModule pages now list all the directives and pipes that are exported from it.
Directive and Pipe pages now list any NgModule from which they are exported.
Packages also now list any NgModules that are contained - previously they were
missed.

Classes that are injectable often have constructors that should not be
called by the application developer. It is the responsibility of the
injector to instantiate the class and the constructor often contains
private implementation details that may need to change.
This commit removes constructors from the docs for API items that are
both:
a) Marked with an injectable decorator (e.g. Injectable, Directive,
Component, Pipe), and
b) Have no constructor description
This second rule allows the developer to override the removal if there
is something useful to say about the constructor.
Note that "normal" classes such as `angimations/HttpHeaders` do not have
their constructor removed, despite (at this time) having no description.
