Currently if a view throws an error during creation mode, we mark it as `incompleteFirstPass` so that we can try to recover later. The recovery is only possible inside component views.
The problem is that when this was introduced, I forgot to flip the `firstCreatePass` when an error is thrown which meant that calling `renderView` on the same component again is allowed. It will eventually hit an assertion which can be confusing for the end user. This issue only manifests itself when rendering views "manually" through `ViewContainerRef` (e.g. using `NgIf`).
These changes flip the `firstCreatePass` back to false on errors so that trying to re-render the same view will throw an error which is consistent to the one that broke the view during creation.

When a directive provides a DI token using a factory function and
interacting with a standalone injector from within that factory, the
standalone injector should not have access to either the directive
injector nor the NgModule injector; only the standalone injector should

Currently unless a listener inside of an embedded view tries to reference something from the parent view, or if the reference is a local ref, we don't generate the view restoration instructions and we allow for the value to be picked up from the context object in the function parameters.

We currently have two long-standing issues related to how `TestBed` tests are torn down:
1. The dynamically-created test module isn't going to be destroyed, preventing the `ngOnDestroy` hooks on providers from running and keeping the component `style` nodes in the DOM.
2. The test root elements aren't going to be removed from the DOM. Instead, they will be removed whenever another test component is created.
By themselves, these issues are easy to resolve, but given how long they've been around, there are a lot of unit tests out there that depend on the broken behavior.
These changes address the issues by introducing APIs that allow users to opt into the correct test teardown behavior either at the application level via `TestBed.initTestEnvironment` or the test suite level via `TestBed.configureTestingModule`.
At the moment, the new teardown behavior is opt-in, but the idea is that we'll eventually make it opt-out before removing the configuration altogether.

Currently we save a reference to an `LView` on most DOM nodes created by Angular either by saving
the `LView` directly in the `__ngContext__` or by saving the `LContext` which has a reference to
the `LView`. This can be a problem if the DOM node is retained in memory, because the `LView` has
references to all of the child nodes of the view, as well as other internal data structures.
Previously we tried to resolve the issue by clearing the `__ngContext__` when a node is removed
(see https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/36011), but we decided not to proceeed, because it can
slow down destruction due to a megamorphic write.
These changes aim to address the issue while reducing the performance impact by assigning a unique
ID when an `LView` is created and adding it to `__ngContext__`. All active views are tracked in
a map where their unique ID is used as the key. We don't need to worry about leaks within that map,
because `LView`s are an internal data structure and we have complete control over when they are
created and destroyed.

This commit refactors the code to replace `loadLContext` with `getLContext` calls. The only difference between these two functions is that the `loadLContext` supports throwing an error in case `LContext` can not be found. The investigation performed in #41525 revealed that throwing while retrieving `LContext` might have undesirable performance implications, so we should avoid that to make sure there are no accidental perf regressions in other parts of code that used `loadLContext`. Moreover, in most of the places the `loadLContext` was already called in a mode that prevented an error from being thrown, so this refactoring should have no effect on the actual behavior.

This commit introduces the following optimizations:
1. We return an empty array for text nodes in `getDirectives` because
Angular does not support attaching logic to them. This optimization
improves performance of `getDirectives` significantly because text nodes
often result in expensive calls to `loadLContext` since we can't resolve
it from a parent node.
1. `getDirectives` now calls `loadLContext` with second argument `false`
so it doesn't throw an error. This brings another significant
improvement because prevents the VM from deoptimizing calls.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Previously the `ng.getDirectives` function threw an error in case a
given DOM node had no Angular context associated with it (for example
if a function was called for a DOM element outside of an Angular app).
This behavior was inconsistent with other debugging utilities under `ng`
namespace, which handled this situation without raising an exception.
Now calling the `ng.getDirectives` function for such DOM nodes would
result in an empty array returned from that function.

This implementation is cheap and available in production. It's cheap

Previously presence of both [class] and [className] bindings on an element was treated as compiler error (implemented in 6f203c9575). Later, the situation was improved to actually allow both bindings to co-exist (see a153b61098), however the compiler check was not removed completely. The only situation where the error is thrown at this moment is when static (but with interpolation) and bound `class` attributes are present on an element, for ex.:
```
<div class="{{ one }}" [class]="'two'"></div>
```
In the current situation the error is acually misleading (as it refers to `[className]`).
This commit removes the mentioned compiler check as obsolete and makes the `class` and `style` attribute processing logically the same (the last occurrence is used to compute the value).

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`.

Previously, injector definitions contained a `factory` property that
was used to create a new instance of the associated NgModule class.
Now this factory has been moved to its own `ɵfac` static property on the
NgModule class itself. This is inline with how directives, components and
pipes are created.
There is a small size increase to bundle sizes for each NgModule class,
because the `ɵfac` takes up a bit more space:
Before:
```js
let a = (() => {
class n {}
return n.\u0275mod = c.Cb({type: n}),
n.\u0275inj = c.Bb({factory: function(t) { return new (t || n) }, imports: [[e.a.forChild(s)], e.a]}),
n
})(),
```
After:
```js
let a = (() => {
class n {}
return n.\u0275fac = function(t) { return new (t || n) },
n.\u0275mod = c.Cb({type: n}),
n.\u0275inj = c.Bb({imports: [[r.a.forChild(s)], r.a]}),
n
})(),
```
In other words `n.\u0275fac = ` is longer than `factory: ` (by 5 characters)
and only because the tooling insists on encoding `ɵ` as `\u0275`.
This can be mitigated in a future PR by only generating the `ɵfac` property
if it is actually needed.

When we attach a `ViewRef` to a `ViewContainerRef`, we save a reference to the container
onto the `ViewRef` so that we can remove it when the ref is destroyed. The problem is
that if the container's `hostView` is destroyed first, the `ViewRef` has no way of knowing
that it should stop referencing the container.
These changes remove the leak by not saving a reference at all. Instead, when a `ViewRef`
is destroyed, we clean it up through the `LContainer` directly. We don't need to worry
about the case where the container is destroyed before the view, because containers
automatically clean up all of their views upon destruction.

Currently when analyzing the metadata of a directive, we bundle together the bindings from `host`
and the `HostBinding` and `HostListener` together. This can become a problem later on in the
compilation pipeline, because we try to evaluate the value of the binding, causing something like
`@HostBinding('class.foo') public true = 1;` to be treated the same as
`host: {'[class.foo]': 'true'}`.
While looking into the issue, I noticed another one that is closely related: we weren't treating
quoted property names correctly. E.g. `@HostBinding('class.foo') public "foo-bar" = 1;` was being
interpreted as `classProp('foo', ctx.foo - ctx.bar)` due to the same issue where property names
were being evaluated.
These changes resolve both of the issues by treating all `HostBinding` instance as if they're
reading the property from `this`. E.g. the `@HostBinding('class.foo') public true = 1;` from above
is now being treated as `host: {'[class.foo]': 'this.true'}` which further down the pipeline becomes
`classProp('foo', ctx.true)`. This doesn't have any payload size implications for existing code,
because we've always been prefixing implicit property reads with `ctx.`. If the property doesn't
have an identifier that can be read using dotted access, we convert it to a quoted one (e.g.
`classProp('foo', ctx['is-foo']))`.

Escape the content of the strings so that it can be safely inserted into a comment node.
The issue is that HTML does not specify any way to escape comment end text inside the comment.
`<!-- The way you close a comment is with "-->". -->`. Above the `"-->"` is meant to be text
not an end to the comment. This can be created programmatically through DOM APIs.
```
div.innerHTML = div.innerHTML
```
One would expect that the above code would be safe to do, but it turns out that because comment
text is not escaped, the comment may contain text which will prematurely close the comment
opening up the application for XSS attack. (In SSR we programmatically create comment nodes which
may contain such text and expect them to be safe.)
This function escapes the comment text by looking for the closing char sequence `-->` and replace
it with `-_-_>` where the `_` is a zero width space `\u200B`. The result is that if a comment
contains `-->` text it will render normally but it will not cause the HTML parser to close the
