In ES5 code, TypeScript requires certain helpers (such as
`__spreadArrays()`) to be able to support ES2015+ features. These
helpers can be either imported from `tslib` (by setting the
`importHelpers` TS compiler option to `true`) or emitted inline (by
setting the `importHelpers` and `noEmitHelpers` TS compiler options to
`false`, which is the default value for both).
Ngtsc's `StaticInterpreter` (which is also used during ngcc processing)
is able to statically evaluate some of these helpers (currently
`__assign()`, `__spread()` and `__spreadArrays()`), as long as
`ReflectionHost#getDefinitionOfFunction()` correctly detects the
declaration of the helper. For this to happen, the left-hand side of the
corresponding call expression (i.e. `__spread(...)` or
`tslib.__spread(...)`) must be evaluated as a function declaration for
`getDefinitionOfFunction()` to be called with.
In the case of imported helpers, the `tslib.__someHelper` expression was
resolved to a function declaration of the form
`export declare function __someHelper(...args: any[][]): any[];`, which
allows `getDefinitionOfFunction()` to correctly map it to a TS helper.
In contrast, in the case of emitted helpers (and regardless of the
module format: `CommonJS`, `ESNext`, `UMD`, etc.)), the `__someHelper`
identifier was resolved to a variable declaration of the form
`var __someHelper = (this && this.__someHelper) || function () { ... }`,
which upon further evaluation was categorized as a `DynamicValue`
(prohibiting further evaluation by the `getDefinitionOfFunction()`).
As a result of the above, emitted TypeScript helpers were not evaluated
in ES5 code.
---
This commit changes the detection of TS helpers to leverage the existing
`KnownFn` feature (previously only used for built-in functions).
`Esm5ReflectionHost` is changed to always return `KnownDeclaration`s for
TS helpers, both imported (`getExportsOfModule()`) as well as emitted
(`getDeclarationOfIdentifier()`).
Similar changes are made to `CommonJsReflectionHost` and
`UmdReflectionHost`.
The `KnownDeclaration`s are then mapped to `KnownFn`s in
`StaticInterpreter`, allowing it to statically evaluate call expressions
involving any kind of TS helpers.
