The `ng_module` rule supports the generation of flat module bundles. In
View Engine, information about this flat module bundle is exposed
as a Bazel provider. This is helpful as other rules like `ng_package`
could rely on this information to determine entry-points for the APF.
With Ivy this currently does not work because the flat module
information is not exposed in the provider. The reason for this is
unclear. We should also provide this information in Ivy so that rules
like `ng_package` can also determine the correct entry-points when a
package is built specifically with `--config=ivy`.

Since we no longer hardcode the `package.json` for
entry-points, a bug has appeared for `ng_package` in Ivy.
The `package.json` files are populated incorrectly with Ivy
as the flat module bundle name is not propagated from `ng_module`
to the `ng_package` rule. The rule then guesses the index file
to `index.js` and does not respect the flat module bundle shim.

Within an Angular package, it can happen that there are
entry-points which do not contain features that belong into
an `@NgModule` or need metadata files to be generated.
For example: the `cdk`, `cdk/testing` and `cdk/coercion`
entry-points. Besides other entry-points in the `cdk`
package, those entry-points do not need metadata to
be generated and no not use the `ng_module` rule.
Currently the "ng_package" rule properly picks up such
entry-points and builds bundles, does downleveling etc.
The only thing it misses is that no `package.json` files
are generated for the entry-point. This means that consumers
will not be able to use these entry-points built with "ts_library"
(except accessing the individual bundlings explicitly).
The "ng_package" rule should follow the full APF specification
for such entry-points. Partially building bundles and doing the
downleveling is confusing and a breaking issue.
The motifivation of supporting this (besides making the
rule behavior consistent; the incomplete output is not
acceptable), is that using the "ng_module" rule does
not make sense to be used for non-Angular entry-points.
Especially since it depends on Angular packages to
be specified as Bazel action inputs just to compile
vanilla TypeScript with `@angular/compiler-cli`.

We are close enough to blacklist a few test targets, rather than whitelist targets to run...
Because bazel rules can be composed of other rules that don't inherit tags automatically,
I had to explicitly mark all of our ts_library and ng_module targes with "ivy-local" and
"ivy-jit" tags so that we can create a query that excludes all fixme- tagged targets even
if those targets are composed of other targets that don't inherit this tag.
This is the updated overview of ivy related bazel tags:
- ivy-only: target that builds or runs only under ivy
- 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
- no-ivy-jit: target that is not intended to build or run under ivy with --compile=jit
- no-ivy-local: target that is not intended to build or run under ivy with --compile=local

This lets projects like Material change ng_package "bundle index" files to non-conflicting paths
Currently packages like @angular/core ship with the generated metadata
in a path like 'core.js' which overwrites one of the inputs.
Angular material puts the generated file in a path like 'index.js'
Either way these files generated by ng_module rules have the potential
to collide with inputs given by the user, which results in an error.
Instead, give users the freedom to choose a different non-conflicting name.
Also this refactors the ng_package rule, removing the redundant
secondary_entry_points attribute.
Instead, we assume that any ng_module in the deps with a module_name
attribute is a secondary entry point.

This produces a directory following the Angular Package layout spec.
Includes integration test coverage by making a minimal ng_package in integration/bazel.
Unit tests verify the content of the @angular/core and @angular/common packages.
This doesn't totally match our current output, but is good enough to unblock some
early adopters.
It re-uses logic from the rollup_bundle rule in rules_nodejs. It should also
eventually have the .pack and .publish secondary targets like npm_package rule.
