JoostK 97ef8ae9e7 fix(ivy): let ngcc not consider deep imports as missing dependencies (#27031)
This fixes an issue where packages would be skipped if they contained
e.g. RxJS 5 style imports such as
```
import { observeOn } from 'rxjs/operators/observeOn';
```

Given that no package.json file can be found at the imported path, the
dependency would be reported missing, causing the package to be skipped.

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:

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

Unit Testing

The unit tests are built and run using Bazel:

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

Integration Testing

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

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