In rare cases a project with configured `rootDirs` that has imports to
non-existent identifiers could fail in the migration.
This happens because based on the application code, the migration could
end up trying to resolve the `ts.Symbol` of such non-existent
identifiers. This isn't a problem usually, but due to a upstream bug
in the TypeScript compiler, a runtime error is thrown.
This is because TypeScript is unable to compute a relative path from the
originating source file to the imported source file which _should_
provide the non-existent identifier. An issue for this has been reported
upstream: https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/37731. The
issue only surfaces since our migrations don't provide an absolute base
path that is used for resolving the root directories.
To fix this, we ensure that we never use relative paths when parsing
tsconfig files. More details can be found in the TS issue.
Fixes#36346.

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.

fix(@schematics/angular): TypeScript related migrations should cater for BOM
In the CLI `UpdateRecorder` methods such as `insertLeft`, `remove` etc.. accepts positions which are not offset by a BOM. This is because when a file has a BOM a different recorder will be used https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/blob/master/packages/angular_devkit/schematics/src/tree/recorder.ts#L72 which caters for an addition offset/delta.
The main reason for this is that when a developer is writing a schematic they shouldn't need to compute the offset based if a file has a BOM or not and is handled out of the box.
Example
```ts
recorder.insertLeft(5, 'true');
```
However this is unfortunate in the case if a ts SourceFile is used and one uses `getWidth` and `getStart` method they will already be offset by 1, which at the end it results in a double offset and hence the problem.

Currently if a project has source-files with syntax failures and the migration
has been started on a broken project, we silently migrate *as much as possible*,
but never notify the developer that the project was in a broken state and that
he can re-run the migration after the failures are fixed.
Additionally the template strategy does not need to exit gracefully if it detects
Angular semantic diagnostics on generated files (template type checking). These
diagnostics are not relevant for the query timing analysis.

We are removing the prompt for the `static-query` migration and make the
template strategy the migration strategy for the migration. The usage
strategy is good for best-practices, but for now we want to ensure that
the migration is a seamless as possible and that is only achievable my
re-using the same logic that View Engine uses for determining the
timing of a query.

Slightly improves the messages for the static-query migration in order
to make the terminal output less verbose but more helpful. Unfortunately
we are limited in what we can print due to the devkit not providing much
utilities for printing good messages from a migration schematic.

Currently if something fails in the selected strategy (e.g. AOT failures),
the migration currently accidentally falls back to the test strategy. This
is not helpful as we want to give developers the possibility to re-run
the migration after fixing potential AOT failures.

Apparently the devkit logger is not able to properly print
out error objects, so we need to convert them to a string
before in order to make the error visible to the user.
This is not testable without an e2e test that validates the CLI
terminal output.

The static-query template strategy leverages the AOT compiler
in order to determine the query timing. Unfortunately the AOT
compiler has open bugs that can cause unexpected failures which
make the template strategy unusable in rare cases. These rare
exceptions need to be handled gracefully in order to avoid confusion
and to provide a more smooth migration.
Additionally migration strategy setup failures are now reported with
stack traces as the `ng update` command does not print stack traces.
This makes it easier to reproduce and report migration issues.

In an Angular CLI project scenario where projects only reference
top-level source-files through the `tsconfig` `files` option, we currently
do not migrate referenced source-files. This can be fixed checking all
referenced source-files which aren't coming from an external library.
This is similar to how `tslint` determines project source-files.
PR Close#30269
Currently we always prompt when the static-query migration runs. This is not
always needed because some applications do not even use `ViewChild` or
`ContentChild` queries and it just causes confusion if developers need to
decide on a migration strategy while there is nothing to migrate.
In order to avoid this confusion, we no longer prompt for a strategy
if there are no queries declared within the project.
PR Close#30254
Currently the `static-query` migrations fails at the final step of
updating a query when the query already specifies options which
cannot be transformed easily. e.g. the options are computed through
a function call: `@ViewChild(..., getQueryOpts());` or `@ViewChild(..., myOptionsVar)`.
In these cases we technically could add additionally logic to update
the query options, but given that this is an edge-case and it's
potentially over-engineering the migration schematic, we just
always add a TODO for the timing and print out the determined
query timing in the console. The developer in that case just needs
to manually update the logic for the query options to contain the
printed query timing.

Currently when someone runs `ng update` with the static-query migration,
the migration can fail with an error saying that the `AOT` compiler could not
be created. This can happen if the CLI project contains a test `tsconfig.json`
that is picked up by the schematic.
Due to the fact that spec tsconfig files cannot be ran with NGC (e.g. test
components are not part of a module; not all source files are guaranteed to
be included), test `tsconfig` projects will now use a new `test` migration
strategy where all queries within tests are left untouched and a TODO is added.
PR Close#30034
Currently there are two available migration strategies for the `static-query`
schematic. Both have benefits and negatives which depend on what the
developer prefers. Since we can't decide which migration strategy is the
best for a given project, the developer should be able to select a specific
strategy through a simple choice prompt.
In order to be able to use prompts in a migration schematic, we need to
take advantage of the "inquirer" package which is also used by the CLI
schematic prompts (schematic prompts are usually only statically defined
in the schema). Additionally the schematic needs to be made "async"
because with prompts the schematic can no longer execute synchronously
without implementing some logic that blocks the execution.

Introduces a new strategy for the `static-query` schematic that
is enabled by default. In order to provide a migration that works
for the most Angular applications and makes the upgrade as easy
as possible, the template strategy leverages the view engine
Angular compiler logic in order to determine the query timing
that is currently used within applications using view engine.
PR Close#29815
In order to support multiple strategies for detecting the query timing, the
query usage logic has been moved into a query usage strategy.
PR Close#29815
Queries can technically be also accessed within component templates
e.g.
```html
<my-comp [binding]="myQuery"></my-comp>
```
In that case the query with the property "myQuery" is accessed
statically and needs to be marked with `static: true`. There are
other edge cases that need to be handled as the template property
read doesn't necessarily resolve to the actual query property.
For example:
```html
<foo #myQuery></foo>
<my-comp [binding]="myQuery"></my-comp>
```
In this scenario the binding doesn't refer to the actual query
because the template reference variable takes precedence. The
query doesn't need to be marked with "static: true" this time.
This commit ensures that the `static-query` migration schematic
now handles this cases properly. Also template property reads
that access queries from within a `<ng-template>` are ignored
as these can't access the query before the view has been initialized.

Introduces an update schematic for the "@angular/core" package
that automatically migrates pre-V8 "ViewChild" and "ContentChild"
queries to the new explicit timing syntax. This is not required
yet, but with Ivy, queries will be "dynamic" by default. Therefore
specifying an explicit query timing ensures that developers can
smoothly migrate to Ivy (once it's the default).
