Pete Bacon Darwin f2a1c66031 feat(ivy): ngcc - add typings to ModuleWithProviders functions (#27326)
Exported functions or static method that return a `ModuleWithProviders`
compatible structure need to provide information about the referenced
`NgModule` type in their return type.

This allows ngtsc to be able to understand the type of `NgModule` that is
being returned from calls to the function, without having to dig into the
internals of the compiled library.

There are two ways to provide this information:

* Add a type parameter to the `ModuleWithProviders` return type. E.g.

```
static forRoot(): ModuleWithProviders<SomeNgModule>;
```

* Convert the return type to a union that includes a literal type. E.g.

```
static forRoot(): (SomeOtherType)&{ngModule:SomeNgModule};
```

This commit updates the rendering of typings files to include this type
information on all matching functions/methods.
