Yuhei Yasuda c880e393e9 fix(router): If users are using the Alt key when clicking the router links, prioritize browser’s default behavior (#38375)
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                |
| IE 11      | No impact                                   |

macOS Catalina:

| Browser    | Behavior                                    |
|:-----------|:--------------------------------------------|
| Chrome 84  | Download the target resource                |
| Firefox 79 | Prevent navigation and therefore do nothing |
| Safari 13  | Download the target resource                |

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.
