Rather than re-reading component metadata that was already interpreted
by the Ivy compiler, the Language Service should instead use the
compiler APIs to get information it needs about the metadata.

This commit refactors the QuickInfo abstraction shared between the VE and
Ivy services and used to implement hover tooltips (quick info), which was
extracted from the VE code in commit faa81dc. The new DisplayParts
abstraction is more general and can be used to extract information needed by
various LS functions (e.g. autocompletion).
This commit effectively reverts faa81dc, returning the original code to the
VE implementation as the Ivy code is now diverged.
PR Close#39505
Currently expressions `$event.foo()` and `this.$event.foo()`, as well as `$any(foo)` and
`this.$any(foo)`, are treated as the same expression by the compiler, because `this` is considered
the same implicit receiver as when the receiver is omitted. This introduces the following issues:
1. Any time something called `$any` is used, it'll be stripped away, leaving only the first parameter.
2. If something called `$event` is used anywhere in a template, it'll be preserved as `$event`,
rather than being rewritten to `ctx.$event`, causing the value to undefined at runtime. This
applies to listener, property and text bindings.
These changes resolve the first issue and part of the second one by preserving anything that
is accessed through `this`, even if it's one of the "special" ones like `$any` or `$event`.
Furthermore, these changes only expose the `$event` global variable inside event listeners,
whereas previously it was available everywhere.

Previously, the `startSourceSpan` property could be null
but in reality it is always well defined - except for a legacy
case in the old i18n extraction/merging code, where the

Making this property non-null, simplifies code elsewhere

Prior to this change, the unary + and - operators would be parsed as `x - 0`
and `0 - x` respectively. The runtime semantics of these expressions are
equivalent, however they may introduce inaccurate template type checking
errors as the literal type is lost, for example:
```ts
@Component({
template: `<button [disabled]="isAdjacent(-1)"></button>`
})
export class Example {
isAdjacent(direction: -1 | 1): boolean { return false; }
}
```
would incorrectly report a type-check error:
> error TS2345: Argument of type 'number' is not assignable to parameter
of type '-1 | 1'.
Additionally, the translated expression for the unary + operator would be
considered as arithmetic expression with an incompatible left-hand side:
> error TS2362: The left-hand side of an arithmetic operation must be of
type 'any', 'number', 'bigint' or an enum type.
To resolve this issues, the implicit transformation should be avoided.
This commit adds a new unary AST node to represent these expressions,
allowing for more accurate type-checking.

This commit fixes a bug whereby the language service would incorrectly
return HTML elements if autocomplete is requested for an unknown symbol.
This is because we walk through every possible scenario, and fallback to
element autocomplete if none of the scenarios match.
The fix here is to return results from interpolation if we know for sure
we are in a bound text. This means we will now return an empty results if
there is no suggestions.
This commit also refactors the code a little to make it easier to
understand.

`getExternalFiles()` is an API that could optionally be provided by a tsserver plugin
to notify the server of any additional files that should belong to a particular project.
This API was removed in https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/34260 mainly
due to performance reasons.
However, with the introduction of "solution-style" tsconfig in typescript 3.9,
the Angular extension could no longer reliably detect the owning Project solely
based on the ancestor tsconfig.json. In order to support this use case, we have
to reinstate `getExternalFiles()`.

In `a ? b.~{cursor}`, the LS will provide the symbols in the scope of the current template, because the `path.tail` is `falseExp` whose value is `EmptyExpr`, and the span of `falseExp` is wider than the `trueExp`, so the value of `path` should be narrowed.

This commit removes the autocompletion feature for HTML entities.
HTML entites are things like `&`, `<` etc.
There are a few reasons for the decision:
1. It is outside the core functionality of Angular LS
2. The implementation relies on regex, which incurs performance cost
3. There isn't much value if users do not already know which entity
they want to use
4. The list that we provide is not exhaustive

Keen and I were talking about what it would take to support getting
references at a position in the current language service, since it's
unclear when more investment in the Ivy LS will be available. Getting TS
references from a template is trivial -- we simply need to get the
definition of a symbol, which is already handled by the language
service, and ask the TS language service to give us the references for
that definition.
This doesn't handle references in templates, but that could be done in a
subsequent pass.

This commit removes all markers from the inline template in
`AppComponent` and external template in `TemplateReference`.
Test scenarios should be colocated with the test cases themselves.
Besides, many existing cases are invalid. For example, if we want to
test autocomplete for HTML element, the existing test case is like:
```
<~{cursor} h1>
```
This doesn't make much sense, becasue the language service already sees
the `h1` tag in the template. The correct test case should be:
```
<~{cursor
```
IMO, this reflects the real-world use case better.
This commit also uncovers a bug in the way HTML entities autocompletion
is done. There's an off-by-one error in which a cursor that immediately
trails the ampersand character fails to trigger HTML entities
autocompletion.

ASTs for property read and method calls contain information about
the entire span of the expression, including its receiver. Use cases
like a language service and compile error messages may be more
interested in the span of the direct identifier for which the
expression is constructed (i.e. an accessed property). To support this,
this commit adds a `nameSpan` property on
- `PropertyRead`s
- `SafePropertyRead`s
- `PropertyWrite`s
- `MethodCall`s
- `SafeMethodCall`s
The `nameSpan` property already existed for `BindingPipe`s.
This commit also updates usages of these expressions' `sourceSpan`s in
Ngtsc and the langauge service to use `nameSpan`s where appropriate.

This commit fixes how the language service evaluates the compatibility
of types to work with arbitrary union types. As a result, compatibility
checks are now more strict and can catch similarities or differences
more clearly.
```
number|string == string|null // OK
number|string == number // OK
number|string == null // not comparable
number == string // not comparable
```
Using Ivy as a backend should provide these diagnoses for free, but we
can backfill them for now.

This commit performs a modularization of the Language Service's existing
diagnostic messages. Such a modularization has two primary advantages:
- Centralization and decoupling of error messages from the code that
generates them makes it easy to add/delete/edit diagnostic messages,
and allows for independent iteration of diagnostic messages and
diagnostic generation.
- Prepares for additional features like annotating the locations where a
diagnostic is generated and enabling the configuration of which
diagnostics should be reported by the language service.
Although it would be preferable to place the diagnostics registry in an
independent JSON file, for ease of typing diagnostic types as an enum
variant of 'ts.DiagnosticCategory', the registry is stored as an object.

This commit removes the `NullAstVisitor` and `visitAstChildren` exported
from `packages/compiler/src/expression_parser/ast.ts` because they
contain duplicate and buggy implementation, and their use cases could be
sufficiently covered by `RecursiveAstVisitor` if the latter implements the
`visit` method. This use case is only needed in the language service.
With this change, any visitor that extends `RecursiveAstVisitor` could
just define their own `visit` function and the parent class will behave
correctly.
A bit of historical context:
In language service, we need a way to tranverse the expression AST in a
selective manner based on where the user's cursor is. This means we need a
"filtering" function to decide which node to visit and which node to not
visit. Instead of refactoring `RecursiveAstVisitor` to support this,
`visitAstChildren` was created. `visitAstChildren` duplicates the
implementation of `RecursiveAstVisitor`, but introduced some bugs along
the way. For example, in `visitKeyedWrite`, it visits
```
obj -> key -> obj
```
instead of
```
obj -> key -> value
```
Moreover, because of the following line
```
visitor.visit && visitor.visit(ast, context) || ast.visit(visitor, context);
```
`visitAstChildren` visits every node *twice*.

Under strict mode, the language service fails to typecheck nullable
symbols that have already been verified to be non-null.
This generates incorrect (false positive) and confusing diagnostics
for users.
To work around this issue in the short term, this commit changes the
diagnostic message from an error to a suggestion, and prompts users to
use the safe navigation operator (?) or non-null assertion operator (!).
For example, instead of
```typescript
{{ optional && optional.toString() }}
```
the following is cleaner:
```typescript
{{ optional?.toString() }}
{{ optional!.toString() }}
```
Note that with this change, users who legitimately make a typo in their
code will no longer see an error. I think this is acceptable, since
false positive is worse than false negative. However, if users follow
the suggestion, add ? or ! to their code, then the error will be surfaced.
This seems a reasonable trade-off.
