Jason Aden 66f0ab0371 fix(router): adjust ChildActivation events to only fire when the child is actually changing (#19043)
* The problem was with the `fireChildActivationStart` function. It was taking a `path` param, which was an
array of `ActivatedRouteSnapshot`s. The function was being fired for each piece of the route that was being
activated. This resulted in far too many `ChildActivationStart` events being fired, and being fired on routes
that weren't actually getting activated. This change fires the event only for those routes that are actually
being activated.

Angular Router

Managing state transitions is one of the hardest parts of building applications. This is especially true on the web, where you also need to ensure that the state is reflected in the URL. In addition, we often want to split applications into multiple bundles and load them on demand. Doing this transparently isnt trivial.

The Angular router is designed to solve these problems. Using the router, you can declaratively specify application state, manage state transitions while taking care of the URL, and load components on demand.
