In View Engine, we used to generate empty QueryLists for content queries on root
components (though we did not actually support populating these lists). We need
to keep this behavior in Ivy for backwards compatibility. Otherwise, components
that are sometimes used as root will fail if they are relying on content query
results to always be defined.

Angular Ivy interprets inline static style/class attribute values as instructions that
are processed whilst an element gets created. Because these inline style values are
referenced by style/class bindings, their inline style values are applied at a later
stage. Despite them being eventually applied, their values should be applied earlier
before any directives are instantiated so that directive code can rely on any inline
style/class changes.
This patch ensures that all static style/class attribute values are applied (rendered)
on the element before directives are instantiated.

When injecting with `@Attribute`, namespaced attributes should not match (in order to have feature parity with View Engine).
This PR resolves FW-1137
PR Close#29257
BREAKING CHANGE:
Certain elements (like `<tr>` or `<col>`) require parent elements to be of a certain type by the HTML specification
(ex. <tr> can only be inside <tbody> / <thead>). Before this change Angular template parser was auto-correcting
"invalid" HTML using the following rules:
- `<tr>` would be wrapped in `<tbody>` if not inside `<tbody>`, `<tfoot>` or `<thead>`;
- `<col>` would be wrapped in `<colgroup>` if not inside `<colgroup>`.
This meachanism of automatic wrapping / auto-correcting was problematic for several reasons:
- it is non-obvious and arbitrary (ex. there are more HTML elements that has rules for parent type);
- it is incorrect for cases where `<tr>` / `<col>` are at the root of a component's content, ex.:
```html
<projecting-tr-inside-tbody>
<tr>...</tr>
</projecting-tr-inside-tbody>
```
In the above example the `<projecting-tr-inside-tbody>` component culd be "surprised" to see additional
`<tbody>` elements inserted by Angular HTML parser.

Some tests in exports spec rely on the exact output of innerHTML. In IE11 the order of attributes might change, thus causing tests to fail (in case an element contains more than one attribute). This commit avoids innerHTML usage and performs the necessary checks via element properties.

Some of the export tests had assertions that relied on capitalization
of attributes in the DOM. IE treats capitalization somewhat differently,
so our SauceLabs tests were failing.
This commit tweaks the tests so that the assertions do not rely on
attributes to be capitalized or not.

Angular supports having a component extend off of a parent component.
When this happens, all annotation-level data is inherited including styles
and classes. Up until now, Ivy only paid attention to static styling
values on the parent component and not the child component. This patch
ensures that both the parent's component and child component's styling
data is merged and rendered accordingly.

Currently we only reset the `Attached` flag of a view if it is detached through its parent, however this means that if a root view is destroyed, its flag will never be reset. This manifested itself in one of the Material tests where we were destroying the root view.
This PR resolves FW-1130.

Currently if a user accidentally calls ViewContainerRef.insert() with
a view that has already been attached, we do not clean up the references
properly, so we create a view tree with a cycle. This causes an infinite
loop when the view is destroyed.
This PR ensures that we fall back to ViewContainerRef.move() behavior
if we try to insert a view that is already attached. This fixes the
cycle and honors the user intention.

Currently if an embedded view contains projected nodes, its `rootNodes` array will include `null` instead of the root nodes inside the projection slot. This manifested itself in one of the Material unit tests where we stamp out a template and then move its `rootNodes` into the overlay container.

This commit adds support for the `static: true` flag in `ContentChild`
queries. Prior to this commit, all `ContentChild` queries were resolved
after change detection ran. This is a problem for backwards
compatibility because View Engine also supported "static" queries which
would resolve before change detection.
Now if users add a `static: true` option, the query will be resolved in
creation mode (before change detection runs). For example:
```ts
@ContentChild(TemplateRef, {static: true}) template !: TemplateRef;
```
This feature will come in handy for components that need
to create components dynamically.

```

Prior to this commit, the timing of `ViewChild`/`ContentChild` query
resolution depended on the results of each query. If any results
for a particular query were nested inside embedded views (e.g.
*ngIfs), that query would be resolved after change detection ran.
Otherwise, the query would be resolved as soon as nodes were created.
This inconsistency in resolution timing had the potential to cause
confusion because query results would sometimes be available in
ngOnInit, but sometimes wouldn't be available until ngAfterContentInit
or ngAfterViewInit. Code depending on a query result could suddenly
stop working as soon as an *ngIf or an *ngFor was added to the template.
With this commit, users can dictate when they want a particular
`ViewChild` or `ContentChild` query to be resolved with the `static`
flag. For example, one can mark a particular query as `static: false`
to ensure change detection always runs before its results are set:
```ts
@ContentChild('foo', {static: false}) foo !: ElementRef;
```
This means that even if there isn't a query result wrapped in an
*ngIf or an *ngFor now, adding one to the template later won't change
the timing of the query resolution and potentially break your component.
Similarly, if you know that your query needs to be resolved earlier
(e.g. you need results in an ngOnInit hook), you can mark it as
`static: true`.
```ts
@ViewChild(TemplateRef, {static: true}) foo !: TemplateRef;
```
Note: this means that your component will not support *ngIf results.
If you do not supply a `static` option when creating your `ViewChild` or
`ContentChild` query, the default query resolution timing will kick in.
Note: This new option only applies to `ViewChild` and `ContentChild`
queries, not `ViewChildren` or `ContentChildren` queries, as those types
already resolve after CD runs.

Prior to this fix if a root component was instantiated it create host
bindings, but never render them once update mode ran unless one or more
slot-allocated bindings were issued. Since styling in Ivy does not make
use of LView slots, the host bindings function never ran on the root
component.
This fix ensures that the `hostBindings` function does run for a root
component and also renders the schedlued styling instructions when
executed.

Prior to this change we used current injector implementation for module injector, which was causing problems and produces circular dependencies in case the same token is referenced (with @SkipSelf flag) in the `deps` array. The origin of the problem was that once `directiveInject` implementation becomes active, it was used for module injector as well, thus searching deps in Component/Directive DI scope. This fix sets `injectInjectorOnly` implementation for module injector to resolve the problem.

Previously, using a pipe in an input binding on an ng-template would
evaluate the pipe in the context of node that was processed before the
template. This caused the retrieval of e.g. ChangeDetectorRef to be
incorrect, resulting in one of the following bugs depending on the
template's structure:
1. If the template was at the root of a view, the previously processed
node would be the component's host node outside of the current view.
Accessing that node in the context of the current view results in a crash.
2. For templates not at the root, the ChangeDetectorRef injected into the
pipe would correspond with the previously processed node. If that node
hosts a component, the ChangeDetectorRef would not correspond with the
view that the ng-template is part of.
The solution to the above problem is two-fold:
1. Template compilation is adjusted such that the template instruction
is emitted before any instructions produced by input bindings, such as
pipes. This ensures that pipes are evaluated in the context of the
template's container node.
2. A ChangeDetectorRef can be requested for container nodes.

Prior to this change in Ivy we had strict check that disabled non-unique #localRefs usage within a given template. While this limitation was technically present in View Engine, in many cases View Engine neglected this restriction and as a result, some apps relied on a fact that multiple non-unique #localRefs can be defined and utilized to query elements via @ViewChild(ren) and @ContentChild(ren). In order to provide better compatibility with View Engine, this commit removes existing restriction.
As a part of this commit, are few tests were added to verify VE and Ivy compatibility in most common use-cases where multiple non-unique #localRefs were used.

Prior to this change we only checked whether current lView has a next pointer while traversing tNode tree.

When we first started writing tests for Ivy, we did not yet have a
compatible compiler. For this reason, we set up the Ivy runtime tests
to run with generated code that we wrote by hand (instead of real code
generated by the compiler).
Now that we have a working Ivy compiler and TestBed infrastructure
that is compatible with Ivy, we should start writing integration
tests that leverage them (no more handwritten generated code!). This
will prevent bugs where the compiler code and runtime code become
out of sync (which is easy if they are tested separately). And
eventually, we should migrate all the existing runtime tests in
"core/test/render3" to TestBed and ngtsc.
To kick off this effort, this commit migrates some existing tests
from "core/test/render3/exports_spec.ts" and saves them in a new file
with the same name in the "core/test/acceptance" folder.
