Previously, injector definitions contained a `factory` property that
was used to create a new instance of the associated NgModule class.
Now this factory has been moved to its own `ɵfac` static property on the
NgModule class itself. This is inline with how directives, components and
pipes are created.
There is a small size increase to bundle sizes for each NgModule class,
because the `ɵfac` takes up a bit more space:
Before:
```js
let a = (() => {
class n {}
return n.\u0275mod = c.Cb({type: n}),
n.\u0275inj = c.Bb({factory: function(t) { return new (t || n) }, imports: [[e.a.forChild(s)], e.a]}),
n
})(),
```
After:
```js
let a = (() => {
class n {}
return n.\u0275fac = function(t) { return new (t || n) },
n.\u0275mod = c.Cb({type: n}),
n.\u0275inj = c.Bb({imports: [[r.a.forChild(s)], r.a]}),
n
})(),
```
In other words `n.\u0275fac = ` is longer than `factory: ` (by 5 characters)
and only because the tooling insists on encoding `ɵ` as `\u0275`.
This can be mitigated in a future PR by only generating the `ɵfac` property
if it is actually needed.

This commit updates the logic that calculates `useFactory` function arguments to avoid relying on `instanceof`
checks (thus always retaining symbols) and relies on flags that DI decorators contain (as a monkey-patched property).
Another perf benefit is having less megamorphic reads while calculating args for the `useFactory` call: we used to
check whether a token has `ngMetadataName` property 4 times (in worst case), now we have just 1 megamorphic read in
all cases.
Closes#40143.

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.

In a derived service class with no decorator (and therefore no factory) of
its own, the factory function of the base class will be used instead.
Previously this logic had a bug where the factory function would be called
with no arguments, which would incorrectly create an instance of the base
class.
This commit adds logic to call the base class' factory and pass the type of
the derived class, which will correctly construct an instance of the
derived class using the base class' factory. A test is also added to verify
correctness of this behavior.

The compiler generates a 'token' field when it emits an ngInjectableDef,
but this field was not required by defineInjectable or the InjectableDef
interface, nor was it added by InjectionToken.
This commit makes 'token' required and adds it where missing.

Currently with Ivy, `ModuleWithProvider` providers are processed in order
of declaration in the `NgModule` imports. This technically makes makes
sense but is a potential breaking change as `ModuleWithProvider` providers
are processed after all imported modules in View Engine.
In order to keep the behavior of View Engine, the `r3_injector` is updated
to no longer process `ModuleWithProvider` providers egarly.

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.

Ivy uses R3Injector, but we are currently pulling in both the StaticInjector
(View Engine injector) and the R3Injector when running with Ivy. This commit
adds an ivy switch so calling Injector.create() pulls in the correct
implementation of the injector depending on whether you are using VE or Ivy.
This saves us about 3KB in the bundle.

Improve the stacktrace for `R3Injector` errors by adding the source component (or module) that tried to inject the missing provider, as well as the name of the injector which triggered the error (`R3Injector`).

NullInjectorError: No provider for SportsCar!

`NgModule` requires that `Component`s/`Directive`s/`Pipe`s are listed in
declarations, and that each `Component`s/`Directive`s/`Pipe` is declared
in exactly one `NgModule`. This change adds runtime checks to ensure
that these sementics are true at runtime.
There will need to be seperate set of checks for the AoT path of the
codebase to verify that same set of semantics hold. Due to current
design there does not seem to be an easy way to share the two checks
because JIT deal with references where as AoT deals with AST nodes.

When an Injector is provided, R3Injector instantiates it by calling its
constructor instead of its factory, not resolving dependencies.
With this fix, the ngInjectorDef is checked and the factory is correctly
used if it is found.
PR Close#27456
ngInjectorDef.imports is generated from @NgModule.imports plus
@NgModule.exports. A problem arises as a result, because @NgModule
exports contain not only other modules (which will have ngInjectorDef
fields), but components, directives, and pipes as well. Because of
locality, it's difficult for the compiler to filter these out at
build time.
It's not impossible, but for now filtering them out at runtime will
allow testing of the compiler against complex applications.

Ivy definition looks something like this:
```
class MyService {
static ngInjectableDef = defineInjectable({
…
});
}
```
Here the argument to `defineInjectable` is well known public contract which needs
to be honored in backward compatible way between versions. The type of the
return value of `defineInjectable` on the other hand is private and can change
shape drastically between versions without effecting backwards compatibility of
libraries publish to NPM. To our users it is effectively an `OpaqueToken`.
By prefixing the type with `ɵ` we are communicating the the outside world that
the value is not public API and is subject to change without backward compatibility.

This adds compilation of @NgModule providers and imports into
ngInjectorDef statements in generated code. All @NgModule annotations
will be compiled and the @NgModule decorators removed from the
resultant js output.
All @Injectables will also be compiled in Ivy mode, and the decorator
removed.
