In most browsers, clicking links with the Alt key has a special behavior, for example, Chrome
downloads the target resource. As with other modifier keys, the router should stop the original
navigation to avoid preventing the browser’s default behavior.
When users click a link while holding the Alt key together, the browsers behave as follows.
Windows 10:
| Browser | Behavior |
|:-----------|:--------------------------------------------|
| Chrome 84 | Download the target resource |
| Firefox 79 | Prevent navigation and therefore do nothing |
| Edge 84 | Download the target resource |

The template type-checking engine includes utilities for creating
`ts.Diagnostic`s for component templates. Previously only the template type-
checker itself created such diagnostics. However, the template parser also
produces errors which should be represented as template diagnostics.
This commit prepares for that conversion by extracting the machinery for
producing template diagnostics into its own sub-package, so that other parts
of the compiler can depend on it without depending on the entire template
type-checker.

In several occasions it has been observed when the browser has evicted
eagerly cached assets from the cache and which can also not be found on the
server anymore. This can lead to broken state where only parts of the application
will load and others will fail.
This commit fixes this issue by checking for the missing asset in the cache
and on the server. If this condition is true, the broken client will be
notified about the current state through the `UnrecoverableStateError`.

This commit introduces a new subscription in the `routerLinkActive` directive which triggers an update
when any of its associated routerLinks have changes. `RouterLinkActive` not only needs to know when
links are added or removed, but it also needs to know about if a link it already knows about
changes in some way.
Quick note that `from...mergeAll` is used instead of just a simple
`merge` (or `scheduled...mergeAll`) to avoid introducing new rxjs
operators in order to keep bundle size down.

The template type-checking engine relies on the abstraction interface
`TypeCheckingProgramStrategy` to create updated `ts.Program`s for
template type-checking. The basic API is that the type-checking engine
requests changes to certain files in the program, and the strategy provides
an updated `ts.Program`.
Typically, such changes are made to 'ngtypecheck' shim files, but certain
conditions can cause template type-checking to require "inline" operations,
which change user .ts files instead. The strategy used by 'ngc' (the
`ReusedProgramStrategy`) supports these kinds of updates, but other clients
such as the language service might not always support modifying user files.
To accommodate this, the `TypeCheckingProgramStrategy` interface was
modified to include a `supportsInlineOperations` flag. If an implementation
specifies `false` for inline support, the template type-checking system will
return diagnostics on components which would otherwise require inline
operations.

When the `NgIf` directive is used in a template, its context variables
can be used to capture the bound value. This is sometimes used in
complex expressions, where the resulting value is captured in a
context variable. There's two syntax forms available:
1. Binding to `NgIfContext.ngIf` using the `as` syntax:
```html
<span *ngIf="enabled && user as u">{{u.name}}</span>
```
2. Binding to `NgIfContext.$implicit` using the `let` syntax:
```html
<span *ngIf="enabled && user; let u">{{u.name}}</span>
```
Because of the semantics of `ngIf`, it is known that the captured
context variable is truthy, however the template type checker
would not consider them as such and still report errors when
`strict` is enabled.
This commit updates `NgIf`'s context guard to make the types of the
context variables truthy, avoiding the issue.

Previously the instructions were included in the golden files to monitor the frequency and rate of
the instruction API changes for the purpose of understanding the stability of this API (as it was
considered for becoming a public API and deployed to npm via generated code).
This experiment has confirmed that the instruction API is not stable enough to be used as public
API. We've since also came up with an alternative plan to compile libraries with the Ivy compiler
for npm deployment and this plan does not rely on making Ivy instructions public.
For these reasons, I'm removing the instructions from the golden files as it's no longer important
to track them.
The are three instructions that are still being included: `ɵɵdefineInjectable`, `ɵɵinject`, and
`ɵɵInjectableDef`.
These instructions are already generated by the VE compiler to support tree-shakable providers, and
code depending on these instructions is already deployed to npm. For this reason we need to treat
them as public api.
This change also reduces the code review overhead, because changes to public api golden files now
require multiple approvals.

This commit refactors the way we store validators in AbstractControl-based classes:
in addition to the combined validators function that we have, we also store the original list of validators.
This is needed to have an ability to clean them up later at destroy time (currently it's problematic since
they are combined in a single function).
The change preserves backwards compatibility by making sure public APIs stay the same.
The only public API update is the change to the `AbstractControl` class constructor to extend the set
of possible types that it can accept and process (which should not be breaking).

Currently we read lifecycle hooks eagerly during `ɵɵdefineComponent`.
The result is that it is not possible to do any sort of meta-programing
such as mixins or adding lifecycle hooks using custom decorators since
any such code executes after `ɵɵdefineComponent` has extracted the
lifecycle hooks from the prototype. Additionally the behavior is
inconsistent between AOT and JIT mode. In JIT mode overriding lifecycle
hooks is possible because the whole `ɵɵdefineComponent` is placed in
getter which is executed lazily. This is because JIT mode must compile a
template which can be specified as `templateURL` and those we are
waiting for its resolution.
- `+` `ɵɵdefineComponent` becomes smaller as it no longer needs to copy
lifecycle hooks from prototype to `ComponentDef`
- `-` `ɵɵNgOnChangesFeature` feature is now always included with the
codebase as it is no longer tree shakable.
Previously we have read lifecycle hooks from prototype in the
`ɵɵdefineComponent` so that lifecycle hook access would be monomorphic.
This decision was made before we had `T*` data structures. By not
reading the lifecycle hooks we are moving the megamorhic read form
`ɵɵdefineComponent` to instructions. However, the reads happen on
`firstTemplatePass` only and are subsequently cached in the `T*` data
structures. The result is that the overall performance should be same
(or slightly better as the intermediate `ComponentDef` has been
removed.)

be a feature.)
- [ ] Discuss the future of `Features` as they hinder meta-programing.

In version 10.0.0-next.8, we introduced absolute URL support for
server-based HTTP requests, so long as the fully-resolved URL was
provided in the initial config. However, doing so represents a
breaking change for users who already have their own interceptors
to model this functionality, since our logic executes before all
interceptors fire on a request. See original PR #37071.
Therefore, we introduce a flag to make this change consistent with
v9 behavior, allowing users to opt in to this new behavior. This
commit also fixes two issues with the previous implementation:
1. if the server was initiated with a relative URL, the absolute
URL construction would fail because needed components were empty
2. if the user's absolute URL was on a port, the port would not
be included

Currently Angular internally already handles `InjectionToken` as
predicates for queries. This commit exposes this as public API as
developers already relied on this functionality but currently use
workarounds to satisfy the type constraints (e.g. `as any`).
We intend to make this public as it's low-effort to support, and
it's a significant key part for the use of light-weight tokens as
described in the upcoming guide: https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/36144.
In concrete, applications might use injection tokens over classes
for both optional DI and queries, because otherwise such references
cause classes to be always retained. This was also an issue in View
Engine, but now with Ivy, this pattern became worse, as factories are
directly attached to retained classes (ultimately ending up in the
production bundle, while being unused).
More details in the light-weight token guide and in: https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/16866.

The purpose of the `WrappedValue` is to allow same object instance to be treated as different for the purposes of change detection. It is currently used with `async` pipe and only with `Observables`. The use case which it covers is if the `Observable` produces the same instance of the value but it is desirable to still try to mark it as changed for the purposes of change detection.
We believe tha the above use case is too rare to warrant special handling in the framework. (Having special handling causes application slowdown for the users and mental load for the developers.) No replacement is planned for this deprecation.

The html parser already normalizes line endings (converting `\r\n` to `\n`)
for most text in templates but it was missing the expressions of ICU expansions.
In ViewEngine backticked literal strings, used to define inline templates,
were already normalized by the TypeScript parser.
In Ivy we are parsing the raw text of the source file directly so the line
endings need to be manually normalized.
This change ensures that inline templates have the line endings of ICU
expression normalized correctly, which matches the ViewEngine.
In ViewEngine external templates, defined in HTML files, the behavior was
different, since TypeScript was not normalizing the line endings.
Specifically, ICU expansion "expressions" are not being normalized.
This is a problem because it means that i18n message ids can be different on
different machines that are setup with different line ending handling,
or if the developer moves a template from inline to external or vice versa.
The goal is always to normalize line endings, whether inline or external.
But this would be a breaking change since it would change i18n message ids
that have been previously computed. Therefore this commit aligns the ivy
template parsing to have the same "buggy" behavior for external templates.
There is now a compiler option `i18nNormalizeLineEndingsInICUs`, which
if set to `true` will ensure the correct non-buggy behavior. For the time
being this option defaults to `false` to ensure backward compatibility while
allowing opt-in to the desired behavior. This option's default will be
flipped in a future breaking change release.
Further, when this option is set to `false`, any ICU expression tokens,
which have not been normalized, are added to the `ParseResult` from the
`HtmlParser.parse()` method. In the future, this collection of tokens could
be used to diagnose and encourage developers to migrate their i18n message
ids. See FW-2106.

This commit augments the `FactoryDef` declaration of Angular decorated
classes to contain information about the parameter decorators used in
the constructor. If no constructor is present, or none of the parameters
have any Angular decorators, then this will be represented using the
`null` type. Otherwise, a tuple type is used where the entry at index `i`
corresponds with parameter `i`. Each tuple entry can be one of two types:
1. If the associated parameter does not have any Angular decorators,
the tuple entry will be the `null` type.
2. Otherwise, a type literal is used that may declare at least one of
the following properties:
- "attribute": if `@Attribute` is present. The injected attribute's
name is used as string literal type, or the `unknown` type if the
attribute name is not a string literal.
- "self": if `@Self` is present, always of type `true`.
- "skipSelf": if `@SkipSelf` is present, always of type `true`.
- "host": if `@Host` is present, always of type `true`.
- "optional": if `@Optional` is present, always of type `true`.
A property is only present if the corresponding decorator is used.
Note that the `@Inject` decorator is currently not included, as it's
non-trivial to properly convert the token's value expression to a
type that is valid in a declaration file.
Additionally, the `ComponentDefWithMeta` declaration that is created for
Angular components has been extended to include all selectors on
`ng-content` elements within the component's template.
This additional metadata is useful for tooling such as the Angular
Language Service, as it provides the ability to offer suggestions for
directives/components defined in libraries. At the moment, such
tooling extracts the necessary information from the _metadata.json_
manifest file as generated by ngc, however this metadata representation
is being replaced by the information emitted into the declaration files.
