Previously, it was not possible to block a partial-linker from trying to
process a declaration that was defined in a newer version of Angular than
that of the partial-linker. For example, if a partial-linker was published as
part of version 12.0.0, there was no way for a partially-compiled declaration
compiled via version 13.0.0 to tell the 12.0.0 linker that it would be invalid
to attempt to process it.
This commit adds a new `minVersion` property to partial-declarations, which is
interpreted as the "minimum partial-linker version" that can process this
declaration. When selecting a partial-linker for such a declaration, the known
linker version ranges are checked to find the most recent linker whose version
range has an overlap with the interpreted declaration range.
This approach allows us to set a minimum version for a declaration, which
can inform an old partial-linker that will it not be able to accurately
process the declaration.
Note that any pre-release part to versions are ignored in this selection
process.
The file-linker can be configured, via the `unknownDeclarationVersionHandling`
property of `LinkerOptions`, to handle such a situation in one of three ways:
- `error` - the version mismatch is a fatal error
- `warn` - a warning is sent to the logger but the most recent partial-linker
will attempt to process the declaration anyway.
- `ignore` - the most recent partial-linker will, silently, attempt to process
the declaration.
The default is to throw an error.

For certain generated function calls, the compiler emits a 'PURE' annotation
which informs Terser (the optimizer) about the purity of a specific function
call. This commit expands that system to produce a new Closure-specific
'pureOrBreakMyCode' annotation when targeting the Closure optimizer instead
of Terser.

This commit changes the `PartialComponentLinker` to use the original source
of an external template when compiling, if available, to ensure that the
source-mapping of the final linked code is accurate.
If the linker is given a file-system and logger, then it will attempt
to compute the original source of external templates so that the final
linked code references the correct template source.

The partial compiler will add a version number to the objects that are
generated so that the linker can select the appropriate partial linker
class to process the metadata.
Previously this version matching was a simple number check. Now
the partial compilation writes the current Angular compiler version
into the generated metadata, and semantic version ranges are used
to select the appropriate partial linker.

For consistency with other generated code, the partial declaration
functions are renamed to use the `ɵɵ` prefix which indicates that it is
generated API.
This commit also removes the declaration from the public API golden
file, as it's not yet considered stable at this point. Once the linker
is finalized will these declaration function be included into the golden
file.

This commit adds the basic building blocks for linking partial declarations.
In particular it provides a generic `FileLinker` class that delegates to
a set of (not yet implemented) `PartialLinker` classes.
The Babel plugin makes use of this `FileLinker` providing concrete classes
for `AstHost` and `AstFactory` that work with Babel AST. It can be created
with the following code:
```ts
const plugin = createEs2015LinkerPlugin({ /* options */ });
```
