This finder is designed to only process entry-points that are reachable by the program defined by a tsconfig.json file. It is triggered by calling `mainNgcc()` with the `findEntryPointsFromTsConfigProgram` option set to true. It is ignored if a `targetEntryPointPath` has been provided as well. It is triggered from the command line by adding the `--use-program-dependencies` option, which is also ignored if the `--target` option has been provided. Using this option can speed up processing in cases where there is a large number of dependencies installed but only a small proportion of the entry-points are actually imported into the application.

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.
