Pete Bacon Darwin 7d08722e80 fix(ivy): support tsutils.__decorate decorator declarations in ngcc (#26236)
The most recent Angular distributions have begun to use __decorate instead of Class.decorators.
This prevents `ngcc` from recognizing the classes and then fails to perform the transform to
ivy format.

Example:

```
var ApplicationModule = /** @class */ (function () {
    // Inject ApplicationRef to make it eager...
    function ApplicationModule(appRef) {
    }
    ApplicationModule = __decorate([
        NgModule({ providers: APPLICATION_MODULE_PROVIDERS }),
        __metadata("design:paramtypes", [ApplicationRef])
    ], ApplicationModule);
    return ApplicationModule;
}());
```

Now `ngcc` recognizes `__decorate([...])` declarations and performs its transform.

Angular Compatibility Compiler (ngcc)

This compiler will convert node_modules compiled with ngc, into node_modules which appear to have been compiled with ngtsc.

This conversion will allow such "legacy" packages to be used by the Ivy rendering engine.

Building

The project is built using Bazel:

bazel build //packages/compiler-cli/src/ngcc

Unit Testing

The unit tests are built and run using Bazel:

bazel test //packages/compiler-cli/src/ngcc/test

Integration Testing

There are tests that check the behaviour of the overall executable:

bazel test //packages/compiler-cli/test/ngcc
