Currently when `ɵɵtemplate` and `ɵɵelement` instructions are generated by compiler, all static attributes are
duplicated for both instructions. As a part of this duplication, i18n translation blocks for static i18n attributes
are generated twice as well, causing duplicate entries in extracted translation files (when Ivy extraction mechanisms
are used). This commit fixes this issue by introducing a cache for i18n translation blocks (for static attributes
only).
Also this commit further aligns `ɵɵtemplate` and `ɵɵelement` instruction attributes, which should help implement
more effective attributes deduplication logic.
Closes#39942.

Currently `i18n` attributes are treated the same no matter if they have data bindings or not. This
both generates more code since they have to go through the `ɵɵi18nAttributes` instruction and
prevents the translated attributes from being injected using the `@Attribute` decorator.
These changes makes it so that static translated attributes are treated in the same way as regular
static attributes and all other `i18n` attributes go through the old code path.

When looking at `TView` debug template only Element nodes were displayed
as `TNode.Element` was used for both `RElement` and `RText`.
Additionally no text was stored in `TNode.value`. The result was that

`TNodeType.Text` and store the text value in `TNode.value`.

Currently when the `plural` or `select` keywords in an ICU contain trailing spaces (e.g. `{count, select , ...}`), these spaces are also included into the key names in ICU vars (e.g. "VAR_SELECT "). These trailing spaces are not desirable, since they will later be converted into `_` symbols while normalizing placeholder names, thus causing mismatches at runtime (i.e. placeholder will not be replaced with the correct value). This commit updates the code to trim these spaces while generating an object with placeholders, to make sure the runtime logic can replace these placeholders with the right values.

Prior to this commit, i18n runtime logic relied on the assumption that provided translation is syntactically correct, specifically around ICU syntax. However provided translations might contain some errors that lead to parsing failure. Specifically when translation contains curly braces, runtime i18n logic tries to parse them as an ICU expression and fails. This commit validates ICU parsing result (making sure it was parsed correctly) and throws an error if parsing error happens. The error that is thrown also contains translated message text for easier debugging.
Note: the check and the error message introduced in this PR is a safeguard against the problem that led to unhandled i18n runtime logic crash. So the framework behavior remains the same, we just improve the error message and it should be safe to merge to the patch branch.

Currently the logic that handles ICUs located outside of i18n blocks may throw exceptions at runtime. The problem is caused by the fact that we store incorrect TNode index for previous TNode (index that includes HEADER_OFFSET) and do not store a flag whether this TNode is a parent or a sibling node. As a result, the logic that assembles the final output uses incorrect TNodes and in some cases throws exceptions (when incompatible structure is extracted from tView.data due to the incorrect index). This commit adjusts the index and captures whether TNode is a parent to make sure underlying logic manipulates correct TNode.

In an attempt to be compatible with previous translation files
the Angular compiler was generating instructions that always
included the message id. This was because it was not possible
to accurately re-generate the id from the calls to `$localize()` alone.
In line with https://hackmd.io/EQF4_-atSXK4XWg8eAha2g this
commit changes the compiler so that it only renders ids if they are
"custom" ones provided by the template author.
NOTE:
When translating messages generated by the Angular compiler
from i18n tags in templates, the `$localize.translate()` function
will compute message ids, if no custom id is provided, using a
common digest function that only relies upon the information
available in the `$localize()` calls.
This computed message id will not be the same as the message
ids stored in legacy translation files. Such files will need to be
migrated to use the new common digest function.
This only affects developers who have been trialling `$localize`, have
been calling `loadTranslations()`, and are not exclusively using custom
ids in their templates.
PR Close#32867
Now that the `$localize` translations are `MessageId` based the
compiler must render `MessageId`s in its generated `$localize` code.
This is because the `MessageId` used by the compiler is computed
from information that does not get passed through to the `$localize`
tagged string.
For example, the generated code for the following template
```html
<div id="static" i18n-title="m|d" title="introduction"></div>
```
will contain these localization statements
```ts
if (ngI18nClosureMode) {
/**
* @desc d
* @meaning m
*/
const MSG_EXTERNAL_8809028065680254561$$APP_SPEC_TS_1 = goog.getMsg("introduction");
I18N_1 = MSG_EXTERNAL_8809028065680254561$$APP_SPEC_TS_1;
}
else {
I18N_1 = $localize \`:m|d@@8809028065680254561:introduction\`;
}
```
Since `$localize` is not able to accurately regenerate the source-message
(and so the `MessageId`) from the generated code, it must rely upon the
`MessageId` being provided explicitly in the generated code.
The compiler now prepends all localized messages with a "metadata block"
containing the id (and the meaning and description if defined).
Note that this metadata block will also allow translation file extraction
from the compiled code - rather than relying on the legacy ViewEngine
extraction code. (This will be implemented post-v9).
Although these metadata blocks add to the initial code size, compile-time
inlining will completely remove these strings and so will not impact on
production bundle size.

If an <ng-template> contains a structural directive (for example *ngIf), Ngtsc generates extra template function with 1 template instruction call.

This is a refactoring that moves the source code around to provide a better
platform for adding the compile-time inlining.
1. Move the global side-effect import from the primary entry-point to a
secondary entry-point @angular/localize/init.
This has two benefits: first it allows the top level entry-point to
contain tree-shakable shareable code; second it gives the side-effect
import more of an "action" oriented name, which indicates that importing
it does something tangible
2. Move all the source code into the top src folder, and import the localize
related functions into the localize/init/index.ts entry-point.
This allows the different parts of the package to share code without
a proliferation of secondary entry-points (i.e. localize/utils).
3. Avoid publicly exporting any utilities at this time - the only public
API at this point are the global `$localize` function and the two runtime
helpers `loadTranslations()` and `clearTranslations()`.
This does not mean that we will not expose additional helpers for 3rd
party tooling in the future, but it avoid us preemptively exposing
something that we might want to change in the near future.
Notes:
It is not possible to have the `$localize` code in the same Bazel package
as the rest of the code. If we did this, then the bundled `@angular/localize/init`
entry-point code contains all of the helper code, even though most of it is not used.
Equally it is not possible to have the `$localize` types (i.e. `LocalizeFn`
and `TranslateFn`) defined in the `@angular/localize/init` entry-point because
these types are needed for the runtime code, which is inside the primary
entry-point. Importing them from `@angular/localize/init` would run the
side-effect.
The solution is to have a Bazel sub-package at `//packages/localize/src/localize`
which contains these types and the `$localize` function implementation.
The primary `//packages/localize` entry-point imports the types without
any side-effect.
The secondary `//packages/localize/init` entry-point imports the `$localize`
function and attaches it to the global scope as a side-effect, without
bringing with it all the other utility functions.
BREAKING CHANGES:
The entry-points have changed:
* To attach the `$localize` function to the global scope import from
`@angular/localize/init`. Previously it was `@angular/localize`.
* To access the `loadTranslations()` and `clearTranslations()` functions,
import from `@angular/localize`. Previously it was `@angular/localize/run_time`.

Prior to this commit, complex expressions (that require additional statements to be generated) were handled incorrectly in case they were used in attributes annotated with i18n flags.

This commit changes the Angular compiler (ivy-only) to generate `$localize`
tagged strings for component templates that use `i18n` attributes.
BREAKING CHANGE
Since `$localize` is a global function, it must be included in any applications
that use i18n. This is achieved by importing the `@angular/localize` package
into an appropriate bundle, where it will be executed before the renderer
needs to call `$localize`. For CLI based projects, this is best done in
the `polyfills.ts` file.
```ts
import '@angular/localize';
```
For non-CLI applications this could be added as a script to the index.html
file or another suitable script file.

```html
<div><strong>items left<strong>{count, plural, =1 {item} other {items}}</div>
```
which results in the text looking like
```
items left4

instead it should be collapsed to
```html
