In TypeScript 3.8 support was added for type-only imports, which only brings in
the symbol as a type, not their value. The Angular compiler did not yet take
the type-only keyword into account when representing symbols in type positions
as value expressions. The class metadata that the compiler emits would include
the value expression for its parameter types, generating actual imports as
necessary. For type-only imports this should not be done, as it introduces an
actual import of the module that was originally just a type-only import.
This commit lets the compiler deal with type-only imports specially, preventing
a value expression from being created.

When using the safe navigation operator in a binding expression, a temporary
variable may be used for storing the result of a side-effectful call.
For example, the following template uses a pipe and a safe property access:
```html
<app-person-view [enabled]="enabled" [firstName]="(person$ | async)?.name"></app-person-view>
```
The result of the pipe evaluation is stored in a temporary to be able to check
whether it is present. The temporary variable needs to be declared in a separate
statement and this would also cause the full expression itself to be pulled out
into a separate statement. This would compile into the following
pseudo-code instructions:
```js
var temp = null;
var firstName = (temp = pipe('async', ctx.person$)) == null ? null : temp.name;
property('enabled', ctx.enabled)('firstName', firstName);
```
Notice that the pipe evaluation happens before evaluating the `enabled` binding,
such that the runtime's internal binding index would correspond with `enabled`,
not `firstName`. This introduces a problem when the pipe uses `WrappedValue` to
force a change to be detected, as the runtime would then mark the binding slot
corresponding with `enabled` as dirty, instead of `firstName`. This results
in the `enabled` binding to be updated, triggering setters and affecting how
`OnChanges` is called.
In the pseudo-code above, the intermediate `firstName` variable is not strictly
necessary---it only improved readability a bit---and emitting it inline with
the binding itself avoids the out-of-order execution of the pipe:
```js
var temp = null;
property('enabled', ctx.enabled)
('firstName', (temp = pipe('async', ctx.person$)) == null ? null : temp.name);
```
This commit introduces a new `BindingForm` that results in the above code to be
generated and adds compiler and acceptance tests to verify the proper behavior.

In JIT compiled apps, component definitions are compiled upon first
access. For a component class `A` that extends component class `B`, the
`B` component is also compiled when the `InheritDefinitionFeature` runs
during the compilation of `A` before it has finalized. A problem arises
when the compilation of `B` would flush the NgModule scoping queue,
where the NgModule declaring `A` is still pending. The scope information
would be applied to the definition of `A`, but its compilation is still
in progress so requesting the component definition would compile `A`
again from scratch. This "inner compilation" is correctly assigned the
NgModule scope, but once the "outer compilation" of `A` finishes it
would overwrite the inner compilation's definition, losing the NgModule
scope information.
In summary, flushing the NgModule scope queue could trigger a reentrant
compilation, where JIT compilation is non-reentrant. To avoid the
reentrant compilation, a compilation depth counter is introduced to
avoid flushing the NgModule scope during nested compilations.

For attribute bindings that target a directive's input, the template
type checker is able to verify that the type of the input expression is
compatible with the directive's declaration for said input. This
checking adheres to the `strictNullChecks` flag as configured in the
TypeScript compilation, such that errors are reported for expressions
that include `undefined` or `null` in their type if the input's
declaration does not include those types.
There was a bug with this level of type-checking for directives that
also declare coercion members, where binding an expression that includes
the `undefined` type to a directive's input that does not include the
`undefined` type would not be reported as error.
This commit fixes the bug by changing the type-constructor in type-check
code to use an intersection type of regular inputs and coerced inputs,
instead of a union type. The union type would inadvertently allow
`undefined` types to be assigned into the regular inputs, as that would
still satisfy the characteristics of a union type.
As a result of this change, you may start to see build failures if
`strictTemplates` is enabled and `strictInputTypes` is not disabled.
These errors are legitimate and some action is required to achieve a
successful build:
1. Update the templates for which an error is reported and introduce the
non-null assertion operator at the end of the expression. This
removes the `undefined` type from the expression's type, making it
appear as a valid assignment.
2. Disable `strictNullInputTypes` in the compiler options. This will
implicitly add the non-null assertion operators similar to option 1,
but all templates in the compilation are affected.
3. Update the directive's input declaration to include the `undefined`
type, if the directive is not implemented in an external library.

Roll forward of #38147.
This allows Closure compiler to tree shake unused constructor calls to `NgModuleFactory`, which is otherwise considered
side-effectful. The Angular compiler generates factory objects which are exported but typically not used, as they are
only needed for compatibility with View Engine. This results in top-level constructor calls, such as:
```typescript
export const FooNgFactory = new NgModuleFactory(Foo);
```
`NgModuleFactory` has a side-effecting constructor, so this statement cannot be tree shaken, even if `FooNgFactory` is
never imported. The `NgModuleFactory` continues to reference its associated `NgModule` and prevents the module and all
its unused dependencies from being tree shaken, making Closure builds significantly larger than necessary.
The fix here is to wrap `NgModuleFactory` constructor with `noSideEffects(() => /* ... */)`, which tricks the Closure
compiler into assuming that the invoked function has no side effects. This allows it to tree-shake unused
`NgModuleFactory()` constructors when they aren't imported. Since the factory can be removed, the module can also be
removed (if nothing else references it), thus tree shaking unused dependencies as expected.
The one notable edge case is for lazy loaded modules. Internally, lazy loading is done as a side effect when the lazy
script is evaluated. For Angular, this side effect is registering the `NgModule`. In Ivy this is done by the
`NgModuleFactory` constructor, so lazy loaded modules **cannot** have their top-level `NgModuleFactory` constructor
call tree shaken. We handle this case by looking for the `id` field on `@NgModule` annotations. All lazy loaded modules
include an `id`. When this `id` is found, the `NgModuleFactory` is generated **without** with `noSideEffects()` call,
so Closure will not tree shake it and the module will lazy-load correctly.

Previously, each Angular repository had its own strategy/configuration
for merging pull requests and cherry-picking. We worked out a new
strategy for labeling/branching/versioning that should be the canonical
strategy for all actively maintained projects in the Angular organization.
This PR provides a `ng-dev` merge configuration that implements the
labeling/branching/merging as per the approved proposal.
See the following document for the proposal this commit is based on
for the merge script labeling/branching: https://docs.google.com/document/d/197kVillDwx-RZtSVOBtPb4BBIAw0E9RT3q3v6DZkykU
The merge tool label configuration can be conveniently accesed
within each `.ng-dev` configuration, and can also be extended
if there are special labels on individual projects. This is one
of the reasons why the labels are not directly built into the
merge script. The script should remain unopinionated and flexible.
The configuration is conceptually powerful enough to achieve the
procedures as outlined in the versioning/branching/labeling proposal.
PR Close#38223
The merge tool provides a way for configurations to determine the branches
for a label lazily. This is supported because it allows labels to respect
the currently selected base branch through the Github UI. e.g. if `target: label`
is applied on a PR and the PR is based on the patch branch, then the change
could only go into the selected target branch, while if it would be based on
`master`, the change would be cherry-picked to `master` too. This allows for
convenient back-porting of changes if they did not apply cleanly to the primary
development branch (`master`).
We want to expand this function so that it is possible to report failures if an
invalid target label is appplied (e.g. `target: major` not allowed in
some situations), or if the Github base branch is not valid for the given target
label (e.g. if `target: lts` is used, but it's not based on a LTS branch).
PR Close#38223
The merge script currently accepts a configuration function that will
be invoked _only_ when the `ng-dev merge` command is executed. This
has been done that way because the merge tooling usually relies on
external requests to Git or NPM for constructing the branch configurations.
We do not want to perform these slow external queries on any `ng-dev` command
though, so this became a lazily invoked function.
This commit adds support for these configuration functions to run
asynchronously (by returning a Promise that will be awaited), so that
requests could also be made to the Github API. This is benefical as it
could avoid dependence on the local Git state and the HTTP requests
are more powerful/faster.
Additionally, in order to be able to perform Github API requests
with an authenticated instance, the merge tool will pass through
a `GithubClient` instance that uses the specified `--github-token`
(or from the environment). This ensures that all API requests use
the same `GithubClient` instance and can be authenticated (mitigating
potential rate limits).
