There are scenarios where it is not possible for ngcc to guess the format
or configuration of an entry-point just from the files on disk.
Such scenarios include:
1) Unwanted entry-points: A spurious package.json makes ngcc think
there is an entry-point when there should not be one.
2) Deep-import entry-points: some packages allow deep-imports but do not
provide package.json files to indicate to ngcc that the imported path is
actually an entry-point to be processed.
3) Invalid/missing package.json properties: For example, an entry-point
that does not provide a valid property to a required format.
The configuration is provided by one or more `ngcc.config.js` files:
* If placed at the root of the project, this file can provide configuration
for named packages (and their entry-points) that have been npm installed
into the project.
* If published as part of a package, the file can provide configuration
for entry-points of the package.
The configured of a package at the project level will override any
configuration provided by the package itself.

To improve cross platform support, all file access (and path manipulation)
is now done through a well known interface (`FileSystem`).
For testing a number of `MockFileSystem` implementations are provided.
These provide an in-memory file-system which emulates operating systems
like OS/X, Unix and Windows.
The current file system is always available via the static method,
`FileSystem.getFileSystem()`. This is also used by a number of static
methods on `AbsoluteFsPath` and `PathSegment`, to avoid having to pass
`FileSystem` objects around all the time. The result of this is that one
must be careful to ensure that the file-system has been initialized before
using any of these static methods. To prevent this happening accidentally
the current file system always starts out as an instance of `InvalidFileSystem`,
which will throw an error if any of its methods are called.
You can set the current file-system by calling `FileSystem.setFileSystem()`.
During testing you can call the helper function `initMockFileSystem(os)`
which takes a string name of the OS to emulate, and will also monkey-patch
aspects of the TypeScript library to ensure that TS is also using the
current file-system.
Finally there is the `NgtscCompilerHost` to be used for any TypeScript
compilation, which uses a given file-system.
All tests that interact with the file-system should be tested against each
of the mock file-systems. A series of helpers have been provided to support
such tests:
* `runInEachFileSystem()` - wrap your tests in this helper to run all the
wrapped tests in each of the mock file-systems.
* `addTestFilesToFileSystem()` - use this to add files and their contents
to the mock file system for testing.
* `loadTestFilesFromDisk()` - use this to load a mirror image of files on
disk into the in-memory mock file-system.
* `loadFakeCore()` - use this to load a fake version of `@angular/core`
into the mock file-system.
All ngcc and ngtsc source and tests now use this virtual file-system setup.

When determining the module type of a bundle pointed to by the "main"
property, ngcc needs to read the bundle to figure out if it is CommonJS
or UMD format. However, when the "main" property does not exist ngcc
would crash while determining the path to the main bundle file.
This commit fixes the crash by checking if the "main" property is present
at all, before attempting to derive a full path to the bundle file.

This commit introduces a new interface, which abstracts access
to the underlying `FileSystem`. There is initially one concrete
implementation, `NodeJsFileSystem`, which is simply wrapping the
`fs` library of NodeJs.
Going forward, we can provide a `MockFileSystem` for test, which
should allow us to stop using `mock-fs` for most of the unit tests.
We could also implement a `CachedFileSystem` that may improve the
performance of ngcc.

By passing a `pathMappings` configuration (a subset of the
`ts.CompilerOptions` interface), we can instuct ngcc to process
additional paths outside the `node_modules` folder.
PR Close#29643
The test now attempts to compile an entry-point (@angular/common/http/testing)
that has a transient "private" dependency. A private dependency is one that is
only visible by looking at the compiled JS code, rather than the generated TS
typings files.
This proves that we can't rely on typings files alone for computing the
dependencies between entry-points.
PR Close#29643
Previously we always walked the whole folder tree looking for
entry-points before we tested whether a target package had been
processed already. This could take >10secs!
This commit does a quick check of the target package before doing
the full walk which brings down the execution time for ngcc in this
case dramatically.

With the new API, where you can choose to only process the first
matching format, it is possible to process an entry-point multiple
times, if you pass in a different format each time.
Previously, ngcc would always try to process the typings files for
the entry-point along with processing the first format of the current
execution of ngcc. But this meant that it would be trying to process
the typings a second time.
Now we only process the typings if they have not already been
processed as part of processing another format in another
even if it was in a different execution of ngcc.

This commit adds a `NewEntryPointFileWriter` that will be used in
webpack integration. Instead of overwriting files in-place, this `FileWriter`
will make a copy of the TS program files and write the transformed files
there. It also updates the package.json with new properties that can be
used to access the new entry-point format.

If `targetEntryPointPath` is provided to `mainNgcc` then we will now mark all
the `propertiesToConsider` for that entry-point if we determine that
it does not contain code that was compiled by Angular (for instance it has
no `...metadata.json` file).
The commit also renames `__modified_by_ngcc__` to `__processed_by_ivy_ngcc__`, since
there may be entry-points that are marked despite ngcc not actually compiling anything.

Now the public API does not contain internal types, such as `AbsoluteFsPath` and
`EntryPointJsonProperty`. Instead we just accept strings and then guard them in
`mainNgcc` as appropriate.
A new public API function (`hasBeenProcessed`) has been exported to allow programmatic
checking of the build marker when the package.json contents are already known.

By default ngcc will compile all the format properties specified. With this
change you can configure ngcc so that it will stop compiling an entry-point
after the first property that matches the `propertiesToConsider`.
PR Close#29092
Now that we are using package.json properties to indicate which
entry-point format to compile, it turns out that we don't really
need to distinguish between flat and non-flat formats, unless we
are compiling `@angular/core`.
PR Close#29092
You can now specify a list of properties in the package.json that
should be considered (in order) to find the path to the format to compile.
The build marker system has been updated to store the markers in
the package.json rather than an additional external file.
Also instead of tracking the underlying bundle format that was compiled,
it now tracks the package.json property.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The `proertiesToConsider` option replaces the previous `formats` option,
which specified the final bundle format, rather than the property in the
package.json.
If you were using this option to compile only specific bundle formats,
you must now modify your usage to pass in the properties in the package.json
that map to the format that you wish to compile.
In the CLI, the `--formats` is no longer available. Instead use the
`--properties` option.

You can now, programmatically, specify an entry-point where
the ngcc compilation will occur.
Only this entry-point and its dependencies will be compiled.

The `mainNgcc()` function has been refactored to make it easier to call
ngcc from JavaScript, rather than via the command line.
For example, the `yargs` argument parsing and the exception
handling/logging have moved to the `main-ngcc.ts`
file so that it is only used for the command line version.
