Previously, while trying to build an `NgccReflectionHost`'s
`privateDtsDeclarationMap`, `computePrivateDtsDeclarationMap()` would
try to collect exported declarations from all source files of the
program (i.e. without checking whether they were within the target
package, as happens for declarations in `.d.ts` files).
Most of the time, that would not be a problem, because external packages
would be represented as `.d.ts` files in the program. But when an
external package had no typings, the JS files would be used instead. As
a result, the `ReflectionHost` would try to (unnecessarilly) parse the
file in order to extract exported declarations, which in turn would be
harmless in most cases.
There are certain cases, though, where the `ReflectionHost` would throw
an error, because it cannot parse the external package's JS file. This
could happen, for example, in `UmdReflectionHost`, which expects the
file to contain exactly one statement. See #34544 for more details on a
real-world failure.
This commit fixes the issue by ensuring that
`computePrivateDtsDeclarationMap()` will only collect exported
declarations from files within the target package.

Previously, if `UmdRenderingFormatter#addImports()` was called with an
empty list of imports to add (i.e. no new imports were needed), it would
add trailing commas in several locations (arrays, function arguments,
function parameters), thus making the code imcompatible with legacy
browsers such as IE11.
This commit fixes it by ensuring that no trailing commas are added if
`addImports()` is called with an empty list of imports.
This is a follow-up to #34353.

Previously, ngcc's `Renderer` would add some constants in the processed
files which were emitted as ES2015 code (e.g. `const` declarations).
This would result in invalid ES5 generated code that would break when
run on browsers that do not support the emitted format.
This commit fixes it by adding a `printStatement()` method to
`RenderingFormatter`, which can convert statements to JavaScript code in
a suitable format for the corresponding `RenderingFormatter`.
Additionally, the `translateExpression()` and `translateStatement()`
ngtsc helper methods are augmented to accept an extra hint to know
whether the code needs to be translated to ES5 format or not.

mangling (which most apps have turned off) and are thus

`ngcc` supports both synchronous and asynchronous execution. The default
mode when using `ngcc` programmatically (which is how `@angular/cli` is
using it) is synchronous. When running `ngcc` from the command line
(i.e. via the `ivy-ngcc` script), it runs in async mode.
Previously, the work would be executed in the same way in both modes.
This commit improves the performance of `ngcc` in async mode by
processing tasks in parallel on multiple processes. It uses the Node.js
built-in [`cluster` module](https://nodejs.org/api/cluster.html) to
launch a cluster of Node.js processes and take advantage of multi-core
systems.
Preliminary comparisons indicate a 1.8x to 2.6x speed improvement when
processing the angular.io app (apparently depending on the OS, number of
available cores, system load, etc.). Further investigation is needed to
better understand these numbers and identify potential areas of
improvement.

In #31426 a fix was implemented to render namespaced decorator imports
correctly, however it turns out that the fix only worked when decorator
information was extracted from static properties, not when using
`__decorate` calls.
This commit fixes the issue by creating the decorator metadata with the
full decorator expression, instead of only its name.
Closes#31394
PR Close#31614
The support for decorators that were imported via a namespace,
e.g. `import * as core from `@angular/core` was implemented
piecemeal. This meant that it was easy to miss situations where
a decorator identifier needed to be handled as a namepsaced
import rather than a direct import.
One such issue was that UMD processing of decorators was not
correct: the namespace was being omitted from references to
decorators.
Now the types have been modified to make it clear that a
`Decorator.identifier` could hold a namespaced identifier,
and the corresponding code that uses these types has been
fixed.
Fixes#31394
PR Close#31426
Currently undecorated classes are intentionally not processed
with ngcc. This is causing unexpected behavior because decorator
handlers such as `base_def.ts` are specifically interested in class
definitions without top-level decorators, so that the base definition
can be generated if there are Angular-specific class members.
In order to ensure that undecorated base-classes work as expected
with Ivy, we need to run the decorator handlers for all top-level
class declarations (not only for those with decorators). This is similar
to when `ngtsc` runs decorator handlers when analyzing source-files.

When ngcc processes an entrypoint, it updates `package.json` with
metadata about the processed format. Previously, it overwrote the
`package.json` with the stringified JSON object without spaces. This
made the file difficult to read (for example when looking at the file
while debugging an ngcc failure).
This commit fixes it by using spaces in the new `package.json` content.

There is an encoding issue with using delta `Δ`, where the browser will attempt to detect the file encoding if the character set is not explicitly declared on a `<script/>` tag, and Chrome will find the `Δ` character and decide it is window-1252 encoding, which misinterprets the `Δ` character to be some other character that is not a valid JS identifier character

You can now specify a list of properties in the package.json that
should be considered (in order) to find the path to the format to compile.
The build marker system has been updated to store the markers in
the package.json rather than an additional external file.
Also instead of tracking the underlying bundle format that was compiled,
it now tracks the package.json property.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The `proertiesToConsider` option replaces the previous `formats` option,
which specified the final bundle format, rather than the property in the
package.json.
If you were using this option to compile only specific bundle formats,
you must now modify your usage to pass in the properties in the package.json
that map to the format that you wish to compile.
In the CLI, the `--formats` is no longer available. Instead use the
`--properties` option.

A constructor function may have been "synthesized" by TypeScript during
JavaScript emit, in the case no user-defined constructor exists and e.g.
property initializers are used. Those initializers need to be emitted
into a constructor in JavaScript, so the TypeScript compiler generates a
synthetic constructor.
This commit adds identification of such constructors as ngcc needs to be
able to tell if a class did originally have a constructor in the
TypeScript source. When a class has a superclass, a synthesized
constructor must not be considered as a user-defined constructor as that
prevents a base factory call from being created by ngtsc, resulting in a
factory function that does not inject the dependencies of the superclass.
Hence, we identify a default synthesized super call in the constructor
body, according to the structure that TypeScript emits.

When ngtsc compiles @angular/core, it rewrites core imports to the
r3_symbols.ts file that exposes all internal symbols under their
external name. When creating the FESM bundle, the r3_symbols.ts file
causes the external symbol names to be rewritten to their internal name.
Under ngcc compilations of FESM bundles, the indirection of
r3_symbols.ts is no longer in place such that the external names are
retained in the bundle. Previously, the external name `ɵdefineNgModule`
was explicitly declared internally to resolve this issue, but the
recently added `setClassMetadata` was not declared as such, causing
runtime errors.
Instead of relying on the r3_symbols.ts file to perform the rewrite of
the external modules to their internal variants, the translation is
moved into the `ImportManager` during the compilation itself. This
avoids the need for providing the external name manually.

Originally, the ivy_switch mechanism used Bazel genrules to conditionally
compile one TS file or another depending on whether ngc or ngtsc was the
selected compiler. This was done because we wanted to avoid importing
certain modules (and thus pulling them into the build) if Ivy was on or
off. This mechanism had a major drawback: ivy_switch became a bottleneck
in the import graph, as it both imports from many places in the codebase
and is imported by many modules in the codebase. This frequently resulted
in cyclic imports which caused issues both with TS and Closure compilation.
It turns out ngcc needs both code paths in the bundle to perform the switch
during its operation anyway, so import switching was later abandoned. This
means that there's no real reason why the ivy_switch mechanism needed to
operate at the Bazel level, and for the ivy_switch file to be a bottleneck.
This commit removes the Bazel-level ivy_switch mechanism, and introduces
an additional TypeScript transform in ngtsc (and the pass-through tsc
compiler used for testing JIT) to perform the same operation that ngcc
does, and flip the switch during ngtsc compilation. This allows the
ivy_switch file to be removed, and the individual switches to be located
directly next to their consumers in the codebase, greatly mitigating the
circular import issues and making the mechanism much easier to use.
As part of this commit, the tag for marking switched variables was changed
from __PRE_NGCC__ to __PRE_R3__, since it's no longer just ngcc which
flips these tags. Most variables were renamed from R3_* to SWITCH_* as well,
since they're referenced mostly in render2 code.
Test strategy: existing test coverage is more than sufficient - if this
didn't work correctly it would break the hello world and todo apps.
