Previously in Ivy, host bindings did not work if they shared a public name
with an Input because they used the `elementProperty` instruction as is.
This instruction was originally built for inside component templates, so it
would either set a directive input OR a native property. This is the
correct behavior for inside a template, but for host bindings, we always
want the native properties to be set regardless of the presence of an Input.
This change adds an extra argument to `elementProperty` so we can tell it to
ignore directive inputs and only set native properties (if it is in the
context of a host binding).

In `ViewRef.detectChanges`, we are passing `ViewRef.context` into `detectChanges` to trigger change detection. This only makes sense for component `ViewRefs` (i.e. injected `ChangeDetectorRefs`) because with embedded views, `context` is not a component instance where the view has been monkey-patched. It's a just a normal object, so the view will be undefined.
In order to resolve this problem, we now invoke `detectChangesInternal` and also pass `LView` (to make sure we always have a view available).

When detaching a view by its index via `ViewContainerRef.detach(index)`, in `ViewEngine` we used to return a new `ViewRef` ([for reference](https://github.com/angular/angular/blob/master/packages/core/src/view/refs.ts#L227)), however in Ivy we return the same `ViewRef` which means that its internal `_viewContainerRef` is never reset and we'll throw an error if the consumer tried to attach it to the `ApplicationRef`. These changes return a new `ViewRef` in order to match the original behavior.

In Angular, it used to be an accepted practice to use strings as dependency
injection tokens. E.g. {provide: 'test', useValue: 'provided'}. However,
the Ivy node injection system did not support this. The Ivy DI system
attempts to patch a Bloom bit index onto each type registered with it, and
this patch operation does not work for a string token.
This commit adds string token support to the bloom filter system by
reserving bit 0 for string tokens. This eliminates the need for each string
token to store its own Bloom bit, at the expense of slightly more expensive
lookups of string tokens.

multiple directives with the same selector.

BREAKING CHANGE:
The public API for `DebugNode` was accidentally too broad. This change removes
1. Public constructor. Since `DebugNode` is a way for Angular to communicate information
on to the developer there is no reason why the developer should ever need to
Instantiate the `DebugNode`
2. We are also removing `removeChild`, `addChild`, `insertBefore`, and `insertChildAfter`.
All of these methods are used by Angular to constructor the correct `DebugNode` tree.
There is no reason why the developer should ever be constructing a `DebugNode` tree
And these methods should have never been made public.
3. All properties have been change to `readonly` since `DebugNode` is used by Angular
to communicate to developer and there is no reason why these APIs should be writable.
While technically breaking change we don’t expect anyone to be effected by this change.

A recent commit (probably 2c7386c) has changed the import graph of the
DI types in core, and somehow results in the ngc compiler deciding to
re-export core DI types from application factories which tangentially
use inject(). This is not really surprising; ngc's import graph can be
very unstable.
However, this results in a re-export of InjectFlags surviving JS
compilation. InjectFlags was a const enum, akin to an interface in TS,
with no runtime repesentation. This causes a warning to be emitted by
Webpack when it sees the re-export of InjectFlags.
This commit avoids the issue by removing 'const' from the declaration
of InjectFlags, causing it to have a runtime value. This is a temporary
fix. The real fix will be for ngc to no longer write exports of const
enums.
Testing strategy: manually verified. Due to the problem only manifesting
when recompiling after a change and then running Webpack, there is no
existing framework via which this could be easily tested with an
integration test. Additionally, the potential for this issue is gone in
Ivy, so this solution is only temporarily needed.

When ngtsc compiles @angular/core, it rewrites core imports to the
r3_symbols.ts file that exposes all internal symbols under their
external name. When creating the FESM bundle, the r3_symbols.ts file
causes the external symbol names to be rewritten to their internal name.
Under ngcc compilations of FESM bundles, the indirection of
r3_symbols.ts is no longer in place such that the external names are
retained in the bundle. Previously, the external name `ɵdefineNgModule`
was explicitly declared internally to resolve this issue, but the
recently added `setClassMetadata` was not declared as such, causing
runtime errors.
Instead of relying on the r3_symbols.ts file to perform the rewrite of
the external modules to their internal variants, the translation is
moved into the `ImportManager` during the compilation itself. This
avoids the need for providing the external name manually.

When compiling the flat-file version of the `@angular/core` we need to be aware
that we cannot rely upon imported names to access the ivy definition functions.
The compiler is already clever enough to use local function calls rather than
trying to add a namespaced import, but there is a problem if the local name of the
function is different to the exported name. This is the case for functions that
are not part of the public API, and so are exported under a barred-O private alias.
In `@angular/core` the only decorations in use are `@NgModule` and `@Injectable`.
There are no directives, components, pipes, etc.
Since `defineInjectable` is part of the public API of `@angular/core`, the compiler
is able to generate code that references the original non-barred-O version of the
function.
But the `defineNgModule` is not part of the public API and so the compiler must
generate code that refers to it by the private barred-O version of the function.
This commit imports and then re-exports this barred-O version of `defineModule` to
ensure that the symbol is available in the local scope of the flat-file versions of
the `@angular/core` library.

This commit introduces the setClassMetadata() private function, which
adds metadata to a type in a way that can be accessed via Angular's
ReflectionCapabilities. Currently, it writes to static fields as if
the metadata being added was downleveled from decorators by tsickle.
The plan is for ngtsc to emit code which calls this function, passing
metadata on to the runtime for testing purposes. Calls to this function
would then be tree-shaken away for production bundles.
Testing strategy: proper operation of this function will be an integral
part of TestBed metadata overriding. Angular core tests will fail if this
is broken.

We are close enough to blacklist a few test targets, rather than whitelist targets to run...

- fixme-ivy-jit: target that doesn't yet build or run under ivy with --compile=jit
- fixme-ivy-local: target that doesn't yet build or run under ivy with --compile=local

Originally, the ivy_switch mechanism used Bazel genrules to conditionally
compile one TS file or another depending on whether ngc or ngtsc was the
selected compiler. This was done because we wanted to avoid importing
certain modules (and thus pulling them into the build) if Ivy was on or
off. This mechanism had a major drawback: ivy_switch became a bottleneck
in the import graph, as it both imports from many places in the codebase
and is imported by many modules in the codebase. This frequently resulted
in cyclic imports which caused issues both with TS and Closure compilation.
It turns out ngcc needs both code paths in the bundle to perform the switch
during its operation anyway, so import switching was later abandoned. This
means that there's no real reason why the ivy_switch mechanism needed to
operate at the Bazel level, and for the ivy_switch file to be a bottleneck.
This commit removes the Bazel-level ivy_switch mechanism, and introduces
an additional TypeScript transform in ngtsc (and the pass-through tsc
compiler used for testing JIT) to perform the same operation that ngcc
does, and flip the switch during ngtsc compilation. This allows the
ivy_switch file to be removed, and the individual switches to be located
directly next to their consumers in the codebase, greatly mitigating the
circular import issues and making the mechanism much easier to use.
As part of this commit, the tag for marking switched variables was changed
from __PRE_NGCC__ to __PRE_R3__, since it's no longer just ngcc which
flips these tags. Most variables were renamed from R3_* to SWITCH_* as well,
since they're referenced mostly in render2 code.
Test strategy: existing test coverage is more than sufficient - if this
didn't work correctly it would break the hello world and todo apps.

Previously in Ivy, metadata for directives/components/modules/etc was
carried in .d.ts files inside type information encoded on the
DirectiveDef, ComponentDef, NgModuleDef, etc types of Ivy definition
fields. This works well, but has the side effect of complicating Ivy's
runtime code as these extra generic type parameters had to be specified
as <any> throughout the codebase. *DefInternal types were introduced
previously to mitigate this issue, but that's the wrong way to solve
the problem.
This commit returns *Def types to their original form, with no metadata
attached. Instead, new *DefWithMeta types are introduced that alias the
plain definition types and add extra generic parameters. This way the
only code that needs to deal with the extra metadata parameters is the
compiler code that reads and writes them - the existence of this metadata
is transparent to the runtime, as it should be.

This commit creates an API for factory functions which allows them
to be inherited from one another. To do so, it differentiates between
the factory function as a wrapper for a constructor and the factory
function in ngInjectableDefs which is determined by a default
provider.
The new form is:
factory: (t?) => new (t || SomeType)(inject(Dep1), inject(Dep2))
The 't' parameter allows for constructor inheritance. A subclass with
no declared constructor inherits its constructor from the superclass.
With the 't' parameter, a subclass can call the superclass' factory
function and use it to create an instance of the subclass.
For @Injectables with configured providers, the factory function is
of the form:
factory: (t?) => t ? constructorInject(t) : provider();
where constructorInject(t) creates an instance of 't' using the
naturally declared constructor of the type, and where provider()
creates an instance of the base type using the special declared
provider on @Injectable.
