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.

These types are only used in the generated typings files to provide
information to the Angular compiler in order that it can compile code
in downstream libraries and applications.

the compiler.

BREAKING CHANGE:
Switching default of `emitDistinctChangesOnlyDefaultValue`
which changes the default behavior and may cause some applications which
rely on the incorrect behavior to fail.
`emitDistinctChangesOnly` flag has also been deprecated and will be
removed in a future major release.
The previous implementation would fire changes `QueryList.changes.subscribe`
whenever the `QueryList` was recomputed. This resulted in an artificially
high number of change notifications, as it is possible that recomputing
`QueryList` results in the same list. When the `QueryList` gets recomputed
is an implementation detail, and it should not be the thing that determines
how often change event should fire.
Unfortunately, fixing the behavior outright caused too many existing
applications to fail. For this reason, Angular considers this fix a
breaking fix and has introduced a flag in `@ContentChildren` and
`@ViewChildren`, that controls the behavior.
```
export class QueryCompWithStrictChangeEmitParent {
@ContentChildren('foo', {
// This option is the new default with this change.
emitDistinctChangesOnly: true,
})
foos!: QueryList<any>;
}
```
For backward compatibility before v12
`emitDistinctChangesOnlyDefaultValue` was set to `false. This change
changes the default to `true`.

This change marks all relevant define* callsites as pure, causing the compiler to
emmit either @__PURE__ or @pureOrBreakMyCode annotation based on whether we are
compiling code annotated for closure or terser.
This change is needed in g3 where we don't run build optimizer but we
need the code to be annotated for the closure compiler.
Additionally this change allows for simplification of CLI and build optimizer as they
will no longer need to rewrite the generated code (there are still other places where
a build optimizer rewrite will be necessary so we can't remove it, we can only simplify it).

This commit causes imports added by ngtsc's `ImportManager` to have their
TypeScript "original node" set to the generated `ts.ImportDeclaration`
statement.
In g3, the tsickle transformer runs after the Angular transformer and post-
processes Angular's compilation output. One of its post-processing tasks is
to transform generated imports and references to imported symbols from the
commonjs module system to the g3 module system. Part of this transformation
involves recognizing modules with specific metadata and altering references
to symbols from those modules accordingly.
Normally, tsickle can rely on TypeScript's binding for an imported symbol to
find its origin module and thus the correct metadata for the symbol. However
the Angular transform generates new synthetic imports which don't have such
binding information. Angular's imports are always namespace imports of the
form:
```
import * as qualifier 'module/specifier';
```
References to such an import are then of the form `qualifier.SymbolName`.
To process such imports properly, tsickle needs to be able to associate the
reference to `qualifier` in the expression `qualifer.SymbolName` with the
`ts.ImportDeclaration` statement that defines it. It expects to do this by
looking at the `ts.getOriginalNode()` for the `qualifier` reference, which
should be the `ts.ImportDeclaration`. This commit changes ngtsc's import
generation mechanism to set the original node on `qualifier` identifiers
according to this expectation.
This commit is not tested in the direct compiler tests, since:
1) there is no observable behavior externally from setting the original node
2) we don't have tests that intercept transformer operations (which could be
used to directly assert against the AST nodes)
3) tsickle's published version does not (yet) contain the g3-specific
transformations which rely on the original node and would thus allow the
behavior to be observed.
Instead, we rely on the g3 testing suite to validate the correctness of this
fix. Breaking this functionality would cause g3 compilation errors for
targets, since tsickle would be unable to transform imports correctly.

Prior to this change, the `setClassMetadata` call would be invoked
inside of an IIFE that was marked as pure. This allows the call to be
tree-shaken away in production builds, as the `setClassMetadata` call
is only present to make the original class metadata available to the
testing infrastructure. The pure marker is problematic, though, as the
`setClassMetadata` call does in fact have the side-effect of assigning
the metadata into class properties. This has worked under the assumption
that only build optimization tools perform tree-shaking, however modern
bundlers are also able to elide calls that have been marked pure so this
assumption does no longer hold. Instead, an `ngDevMode` guard is used
which still allows the call to be elided but only by tooling that is
configured to consider `ngDevMode` as constant `false` value.

This commit augments the `FactoryDef` declaration of Angular decorated
classes to contain information about the parameter decorators used in
the constructor. If no constructor is present, or none of the parameters
have any Angular decorators, then this will be represented using the
`null` type. Otherwise, a tuple type is used where the entry at index `i`
corresponds with parameter `i`. Each tuple entry can be one of two types:
1. If the associated parameter does not have any Angular decorators,
the tuple entry will be the `null` type.
2. Otherwise, a type literal is used that may declare at least one of
the following properties:
- "attribute": if `@Attribute` is present. The injected attribute's
name is used as string literal type, or the `unknown` type if the
attribute name is not a string literal.
- "self": if `@Self` is present, always of type `true`.
- "skipSelf": if `@SkipSelf` is present, always of type `true`.
- "host": if `@Host` is present, always of type `true`.
- "optional": if `@Optional` is present, always of type `true`.
A property is only present if the corresponding decorator is used.
Note that the `@Inject` decorator is currently not included, as it's
non-trivial to properly convert the token's value expression to a
type that is valid in a declaration file.
Additionally, the `ComponentDefWithMeta` declaration that is created for
Angular components has been extended to include all selectors on
`ng-content` elements within the component's template.
This additional metadata is useful for tooling such as the Angular
Language Service, as it provides the ability to offer suggestions for
directives/components defined in libraries. At the moment, such
tooling extracts the necessary information from the _metadata.json_
manifest file as generated by ngc, however this metadata representation
is being replaced by the information emitted into the declaration files.

In some cases, where a module imports a dependency
but does not actually use it, UMD bundlers may remove
the dependency parameter from the UMD factory function
definition.
For example:
```
import * as x from 'x';
import * as z from 'z';
export const y = x;
```
may result in a UMD bundle including:
```
(function (global, factory) {
typeof exports === 'object' && typeof module !== 'undefined' ?
factory(exports, require('x'), require('z')) :
typeof define === 'function' && define.amd ?
define(['exports', 'x', 'z'], factory) :
(global = global || self, factory(global.myBundle = {}, global.x));
}(this, (function (exports, x) { 'use strict';
...
})));
```
Note that while the `z` dependency is provide in the call,
the factory itself only accepts `exports` and `x` as parameters.
Previously ngcc appended new dependencies to the end of the factory
function, but this breaks in the above scenario. Now the new
dependencies are prefixed at the front of parameters/arguments
already in place.

Now that the source to typings matching is able to handle

The naïve matching algorithm we previously used to match declarations in
source files to declarations in typings files was based only on the name
of the thing being declared. This did not handle cases where the declared
item had been exported via an alias - a common scenario when one of the two
file sets (source or typings) has been flattened, while the other has not.
The new algorithm tries to overcome this by creating two maps of export
name to declaration (i.e. `Map<string, ts.Declaration>`).
One for the source files and one for the typings files.
It then joins these two together by matching export names, resulting in a
new map that maps source declarations to typings declarations directly
(i.e. `Map<ts.Declaration, ts.Declaration>`).
This new map can handle the declaration names being different between the
source and typings as long as they are ultimately both exported with the
same alias name.
Further more, there is one map for "public exports", i.e. exported via the
root of the source tree (the entry-point), and another map for "private
exports", which are exported from individual files in the source tree but
not necessarily from the root. This second map can be used to "guess"
the mapping between exports in a deep (non-flat) file tree, which can be
used by ngcc to add required private exports to the entry-point.

In #32902 a bug was supposedly fixed where internal classes as used

the `ModuleWithProviders` analysis is not done when not processing the

The effect of this bug is that formats that are processed after the
initial format had been processed would not have exports for internal

While processing class metadata, ngtsc generates a `setClassMetadata()`
call which (among other things) contains info about property decorators.
Previously, processing getter/setter pairs with some of ngcc's
`ReflectionHost`s resulted in multiple metadata entries for the same
property, which resulted in duplicate object keys, which in turn causes
an error in ES5 strict mode.
This commit fixes it by ensuring that there are no duplicate property
names in the `setClassMetadata()` calls.
In addition, `generateSetClassMetadataCall()` is updated to treat
`ClassMember#decorators: []` the same as `ClassMember.decorators: null`
(i.e. omitting the `ClassMember` from the generated `setClassMetadata()`
call). Alternatively, ngcc's `ReflectionHost`s could be updated to do
this transformation (`decorators: []` --> `decorators: null`) when
reflecting on class members, but this would require changes in many
places and be less future-proof.
For example, given a class such as:
```ts
class Foo {
@Input() get bar() { return 'bar'; }
set bar(value: any) {}
}
```
...previously the generated `setClassMetadata()` call would look like:
```ts

In ngcc's migration system, synthetic decorators can be injected into a
compilation to ensure that certain classes are compiled with Angular
logic, where the original library code did not include the necessary
decorators. Prior to this change, synthesized decorators would have a
fake AST structure as associated node and a made-up identifier. In
theory, this may introduce issues downstream:
1) a decorator's node is used for diagnostics, so it must have position
information. Having fake AST nodes without a position is therefore a
problem. Note that this is currently not a problem in practice, as
injected synthesized decorators would not produce any diagnostics.
2) the decorator's identifier should refer to an imported symbol.
Therefore, it is required that the symbol is actually imported.
Moreover, bundle formats such as UMD and CommonJS use namespaces for
imports, so a bare `ts.Identifier` would not be suitable to use as
identifier. This was also not a problem in practice, as the identifier
is only used in the `setClassMetadata` generated code, which is omitted
for synthetically injected decorators.
To remedy these potential issues, this commit makes a decorator's
identifier optional and switches its node over from a fake AST structure
to the class' name.
