Th `ɵɵFactoryDef` type will appear in published libraries, via their typings files, to describe what type dependencies a DI factory has. The parameters on this type are used by tooling such as the Language Service to understand the DI dependencies of the class being created by the factory. This commit moves the type to the `public_definitions.ts` file alongside the other types that have a similar role, and it renames it to `ɵɵFactoryDeclaration` to align it with the other declaration types such as `ɵɵDirectiveDeclaration` and so on.
