In a microsyntax expressions, some attributes are not bound after
desugaring. For example,
```html
<div *ngFor="let item of items">
</div>
```
gets desugared to
```html
<ng-template ngFor let-items [ngForOf]="items">
</ngtemplate>
```
In this case, `ngFor` should be a literal attribute with no RHS value.
Therefore, its source span should be just the `keySpan` and not the
source span of the original template node.
This allows language service to precisely pinpoint different spans in a
microsyntax to provide accurate information.

Adds `TemplateTypeChecker` operation to retrieve the `Symbol` of a
`TmplAstVariable` or `TmplAstReference` in a template.
Sometimes we need to traverse an intermediate variable declaration to arrive at
the correct `ts.Symbol`. For example, loop variables are declared using an intermediate:
```
<div *ngFor="let user of users">
{{user.name}}
</div>
```
Getting the symbol of user here (from the expression) is tricky, because the TCB looks like:
```
var _t0 = ...; // type of NgForOf
var _t1: any; // context of embedded view for NgForOf structural directive
if (NgForOf.ngTemplateContextGuard(_t0, _t1)) {
// _t1 is now NgForOfContext<...>
var _t2 = _t1.$implicit; // let user = '$implicit'
_t2.name; // user.name expression
}
```
Just getting the `ts.Expression` for the `AST` node `PropRead(ImplicitReceiver, 'user')`
via the sourcemaps will yield the `_t2` expression. This function recognizes that `_t2`
is a variable declared locally in the TCB, and actually fetch the `ts.Symbol` of its initializer.
These special handlings show the versatility of the `Symbol`
interface defined in the API. With this, when we encounter a template variable,
we can provide the declaration node, as well as specific information
about the variable instance, such as the `ts.Type` and `ts.Symbol`.

The statements generated in the TCB are optimized for performance and producing diagnostics.
These optimizations can result in generating a TCB that does not have all the information
needed by the `TemplateTypeChecker` for retrieving `Symbol`s. For example, as an optimization,
the TCB will not generate variable declaration statements for directives that have no
references, inputs, or outputs. However, the `TemplateTypeChecker` always needs these
statements to be present in order to provide `ts.Symbol`s and `ts.Type`s for the directives.
This commit adds logic to the TCB generation to ensure the required
information is available in a form that the `TemplateTypeChecker` can
consume. It also adds an option to the `NgCompiler` that makes this
generation configurable.

Currently, the `DatePipe` (via `formatDate()`) rounds fractions of a millisecond to the
nearest millisecond. This can cause dates that are less than a millisecond before midnight
to be incremented to the following day.
The [ECMAScript specification](https://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/5.1/#sec-15.9.1.11)
defines that `DateTime` milliseconds should always be rounded down, so that `999.9ms`
becomes `999ms`.
This change brings `formatDate()` and so `DatePipe` inline with the ECMAScript
specification.
Fixes#37989
BREAKING CHANGE:
When passing a date-time formatted string to the `DatePipe` in a format that contains
fractions of a millisecond, the milliseconds will now always be rounded down rather than
to the nearest millisecond.
Most applications will not be affected by this change. If this is not the desired behaviour
then consider pre-processing the string to round the millisecond part before passing
it to the `DatePipe`.

The `RefreshTransplantedView` flag is used to indicate that the view or one of its children
is transplanted and dirty, so it should still be refreshed as part of change detection.
This flag is set on the transplanted view itself as well setting a
counter on as its parents.
When a transplanted view is detached and still has this flag, it means
it got detached before it was refreshed. This can happen for "backwards
references" or transplanted views that are inserted at a location that
was already checked. In this case, we should decrement the parent
counters _and_ clear the flag on the detached view so it's not seen as
"transplanted" anymore (it is detached and has no parent counters to
adjust).

When type-checking a component, the declaring NgModule scope is used
to create a directive matcher that contains flattened directive metadata,
i.e. the metadata of a directive and its base classes. This computation
is done for all components, whereas the type-check scope is constant per
NgModule. Additionally, the flattening of metadata is constant per
directive instance so doesn't necessarily have to be recomputed for
each component.
This commit introduces a `TypeCheckScopes` class that is responsible
for flattening directives and computing the scope per NgModule. It
caches the computed results as appropriate to avoid repeated computation.

For the compilation of a component, the compiler has to prepare some

This information includes an expression for directives/pipes, for usage
within the compilation output. For large NgModule compilation scopes
this has shown to introduce a performance hotspot, as the generation of
expressions is quite expensive. This commit reduces the performance
overhead by only generating expressions for the directives/pipes that

The type-to-value conversion could previously crash if a symbol was
resolved that does not have any declarations, e.g. because it's imported
from a missing module. This would typically result in a semantic
TypeScript diagnostic and halt further compilation, therefore not
reaching the type-to-value conversion logic. In Bazel however, it turns
out that Angular semantic diagnostics are requested even if there are
semantic TypeScript errors in the program, so it would then reach the
type-to-value conversation and crash.
This commit fixes the unsafe access and adds a test that ignores the
TypeScript semantic error, effectively replicating the situation as
experienced under Bazel.

zone.js monkey patches the `Object.defineProperty` API long time ago
angular/zone.js@383b479
to resolve issues in very old version of Chrome web which override the
property of `CustomElements`, and this is not an issue any longer, so
we want to remove this monkey patch, since it may swallow the errors when the user
want to define property on unconfigurable or frozen object properties.
But currently there are several apps and tests depends on this patch, since
it also change the `configurable` property to `true` by default, so
in this PR we update the logic to not to swallow error any longer unless the property
is the callbacks of `document.registerElements`.
BREAKING CHANGE:
ZoneJS no longer swallows errors produced by `Object.defineProperty` calls.
Prior to this change, ZoneJS monkey patched `Object.defineProperty` and if there is an error
(such as the property is not configurable or not writable) the patched logic swallowed it
and only console.log was produced. This behavior used to hide real errors,
so the logic is now updated to trigger original errors (if any). One exception
where the patch remains in place is `document.registerElement`
(to allow smooth transition for code/polyfills that rely on old behavior in legacy browsers).
If your code relies on the old behavior (where errors were not thrown before),
you may need to update the logic to handle the errors that are no longer masked by ZoneJS patch.

The `R3TargetBinder` accepts an interface for directive metadata which
declares types for `input` and `output` objects. These types convey the
mapping between the property names for an input or output and the
corresponding property name on the component class. Due to
`R3TargetBinder`'s requirements, this mapping was specified with property
names as keys and field names as values.
However, because of duck typing, this interface was accidentally satisifed
by the opposite mapping, of field names to property names, that was produced
in other parts of the compiler. This form more naturally represents the data
model for inputs.
Rather than accept the field -> property mapping and invert it, this commit
introduces a new abstraction for such mappings which is bidirectional,
eliminating the ambiguous plain object type. This mapping uses new,
unambiguous terminology ("class property name" and "binding property name")
and can be used to satisfy both the needs of the binder as well as those of
the template type-checker (field -> property).
A new test ensures that the input/output metadata produced by the compiler
during analysis is directly compatible with the binder via this unambiguous
new interface.

A recent change to `@angular/localize` brought in the `AbsoluteFsPath` type
from the `@angular/compiler-cli`. But this brought along with it a reference

This affects compilation of `@angular/localize` code that will be run in

The compilation breaks if the NodeJS typings are not included in the build.
Clearly it is not desirable to have these typings included when the project

Previously this package was installed in the default `dependencies` section
of `package.json`, but this meant that its own dependencies are treated as
dependencies of the main project: Babel, for example.
Generally, $localize` is not used at runtime - it is compiled out by the
translation tooling, so there is no need for it to be a full dependency.
In fact, even if it is used at runtime, the package itself is only used
at dev-time since the runtime bits will be bundled into a distributable.
So putting this package in `devDependencies` would only prevent libraries
from bringing the package into application projects that used them. This
is probably good in itself, since it should be up to the downstream project
to decide if it wants to include `@angular/localize` at runtime.
This commit changes the default location of the package to be the
`devDependencies` section, but gives an option `useAtRuntime` to choose
otherwise.
