Some tools (such as Language Server and ng-packagr) only care about
the processed typings generated by ngcc. Forcing these tools to process
the JavaScript files as well has two disadvantages:
First, unnecessary work is being done, which is time consuming.
But more importantly, it is not always possible to know how the final bundling
tools will want the processed JavaScript to be configured. For example,
the CLI would prefer the `--create-ivy-entry-points` option but this would
break non-CLI build tooling.
This commit adds a new option (`--typings-only` on the command line, and
`typingsOnly` via programmatic API) that instructs ngcc to only render changes
to the typings files for the entry-points that it finds, and not to write any
JavaScript files.
In order to process the typings, a JavaScript format will need to be analysed, but
it will not be rendered to disk. When using this option, it is best to offer ngcc a
wide range of possible JavaScript formats to choose from, and it will use the
first format that it finds. Ideally you would configure it to try the `ES2015` FESM
format first, since this will be the most performant.

When using the `NewEntryPointWriter` we copy unmodified files over to the new
entry-point in addition to writing out the source files that are processed by ngcc.
But we were not copying over associated source-map files for these unmodified
source files, leading to warnings in downstream tooling.
Now we will also copy over source-maps that reside as siblings of unmodified
source files. We have to make sure that the sources of the source-map point
to the correct files, so we also update the `sourceRoot` property of the copied
source-map.

ngtsc has a robust suite of testing utilities, designed for in-memory
testing of a TypeScript compiler. Previously these utilities lived in the
`test` directory for the compiler-cli package.
This commit moves those utilities to an `ngtsc/testing` package, enabling
them to be depended on separately and opening the door for using them from
the upcoming language server testing infrastructure.
As part of this refactoring, the `fake_core` package (a lightweight API
replacement for @angular/core) is expanded to include functionality needed
for Language Service test use cases.

ngcc creates typically two `ts.Program` instances for each entry-point,
one for processing sources and another one for processing the typings.
The creation of these programs is somewhat expensive, as it concerns
module resolution and parsing of source files.
This commit implements several layers of caching to optimize the
creation of programs:
1. A shared module resolution cache across all entry-points within a
single invocation of ngcc. Both the sources and typings program
benefit from this cache.
2. Sharing the parsed `ts.SourceFile` for a single entry-point between
the sources and typings program.
3. Sharing parsed `ts.SourceFile`s of TypeScript's default libraries
across all entry-points within a single invocation. Some of these
default library typings are large and therefore expensive to parse,
so sharing the parsed source files across all entry-points offers
a significant performance improvement.
Using a bare CLI app created using `ng new` + `ng add @angular/material`,
the above changes offer a 3-4x improvement in ngcc's processing time
when running synchronously and ~2x improvement for asynchronous runs.

The file-writing error in the this commit can also be the result

The `Logger` interface and its related classes are general purpose

Rename the `package` property to `packagePath` on the `EntryPoint`
interface. This makes it more clear that the `packagePath` property
holds the absolute path to the containing package (similar to how `path`
holds the path to the entry-point). This will also align with the
`packageName` property that will be added in a subsequent commit.
This commit also re-orders the `EntryPoint` properties to group related
properties together and to match the order of properties on instances
with that on the interface.
PR Close#37040
Previously, when an entry-point was ignored via an ngcc config, ngcc
would scan sub-directories for sub-entry-points, but would not use the
correct `packagePath`. For example, if `@angular/common` was ignored, it
would look at `@angular/common/http` but incorrectly use
`.../@angular/common/http` as the `packagePath` (instead of
`.../@angular/common`). As a result, it would not retrieve the correct
ngcc config for the actual package.
This commit fixes it by ensuring the correct `packagePath` is used, even
if the primary entry-point corresponding to that path is ignored. In
order to do this, a new return value for `getEntryPointInfo()` is added:
`IGNORED_ENTRY_POINT`. This is used to differentiate between directories
that correspond to no or an incompatible entry-point and those that
correspond to an entry-point that could otherwise be valid but is
explicitly ignored. Consumers of `getEntryPointInfo()` can then use this
info to discard ignored entry-points, but still use the correct
`packagePath` when scanning their sub-directories for secondary
entry-points.

This commit adds a `revertFile()` method to `FileWriter`, which can
revert a transformed file (and its backup - if any) written by the

When two entry-points overlap, ngcc may attempt to process some
files twice. Previously, when this occured ngcc would just exit with an
error preventing any other entry-points from being processed.
This commit changes ngcc so that if `errorOnFailedEntryPoint` is false, it will
simply log an error and continue to process entry-points. This is useful when
ngcc is processing the entire node_modules folder and there are some invalid
entry-points that the project doesn't actually use.

If ngcc gets updated to a new version then the artifacts
left in packages that were processed by the previous
version are possibly invalid.
Previously we just errored if we found packages that
had already been processed by an outdated version.
Now we automatically clean the packages that have
outdated artifacts so that they can be reprocessed
correctly with the current ngcc version.

Ngcc adds properties to the `package.json` files of the entry-points it
processes to mark them as processed for a format and point to the
created Ivy entry-points (in case of `--create-ivy-entry-points`). When
running ngcc in parallel mode (which is the default for the standalone
ngcc command), multiple formats can be processed simultaneously for the
same entry-point and the order of completion is not deterministic.
Previously, ngcc would append new properties at the end of the target
object in `package.json` as soon as the format processing was completed.
As a result, the order of properties in the resulting `package.json`
(when processing multiple formats for an entry-point in parallel) was
not deterministic. For tools that use file hashes for caching purposes
(such as Bazel), this lead to a high probability of cache misses.
This commit fixes the problem by ensuring that the position of
properties added to `package.json` files is deterministic and
independent of the order in which each format is processed.

To persist some of its state, `ngcc` needs to update `package.json`
files (both in memory and on disk).
This refactoring abstracts these operations behind the
`PackageJsonUpdater` interface, making it easier to orchestrate them
from different contexts (e.g. when running tasks in parallel on multiple
processes).

Previously, when run with `createNewEntryPointFormats: true`, `ngcc`
would only update `package.json` with the new entry-point for the first
format property that mapped to a format-path. Subsequent properties
mapping to the same format-path would be detected as processed and not
have their new entry-point format recorded in `package.json`.
This commit fixes this by ensuring `package.json` is updated for all
matching format properties, when writing an `EntryPointBundle`.

Remove the `formatProperty` property from the `EntryPointBundle`

In commit 7b55ba58b (part of PR #29092), the implementation of
`makeEntryPointBundle()` was changed such that it now always return
`EntryPointBundle` (and not `null`).

unnecessarily handle `null` as a potential return value in some places.
This commit fixes the return type to reflect the implementation and
removes the redundant code that was dealing with `null`.

There are scenarios where it is not possible for ngcc to guess the format
or configuration of an entry-point just from the files on disk.
Such scenarios include:
1) Unwanted entry-points: A spurious package.json makes ngcc think
there is an entry-point when there should not be one.
2) Deep-import entry-points: some packages allow deep-imports but do not
provide package.json files to indicate to ngcc that the imported path is
actually an entry-point to be processed.
3) Invalid/missing package.json properties: For example, an entry-point
that does not provide a valid property to a required format.
The configuration is provided by one or more `ngcc.config.js` files:
* If placed at the root of the project, this file can provide configuration
for named packages (and their entry-points) that have been npm installed
into the project.
* If published as part of a package, the file can provide configuration
for entry-points of the package.
The configured of a package at the project level will override any
configuration provided by the package itself.

To improve cross platform support, all file access (and path manipulation)
is now done through a well known interface (`FileSystem`).
For testing a number of `MockFileSystem` implementations are provided.
These provide an in-memory file-system which emulates operating systems
like OS/X, Unix and Windows.
The current file system is always available via the static method,
`FileSystem.getFileSystem()`. This is also used by a number of static
methods on `AbsoluteFsPath` and `PathSegment`, to avoid having to pass
`FileSystem` objects around all the time. The result of this is that one
must be careful to ensure that the file-system has been initialized before
using any of these static methods. To prevent this happening accidentally
the current file system always starts out as an instance of `InvalidFileSystem`,
which will throw an error if any of its methods are called.
You can set the current file-system by calling `FileSystem.setFileSystem()`.
During testing you can call the helper function `initMockFileSystem(os)`
which takes a string name of the OS to emulate, and will also monkey-patch
aspects of the TypeScript library to ensure that TS is also using the
current file-system.
Finally there is the `NgtscCompilerHost` to be used for any TypeScript
compilation, which uses a given file-system.
All tests that interact with the file-system should be tested against each
of the mock file-systems. A series of helpers have been provided to support
such tests:
* `runInEachFileSystem()` - wrap your tests in this helper to run all the
wrapped tests in each of the mock file-systems.
* `addTestFilesToFileSystem()` - use this to add files and their contents
to the mock file system for testing.
* `loadTestFilesFromDisk()` - use this to load a mirror image of files on
disk into the in-memory mock file-system.
* `loadFakeCore()` - use this to load a fake version of `@angular/core`
into the mock file-system.
All ngcc and ngtsc source and tests now use this virtual file-system setup.

This commit introduces a new interface, which abstracts access
to the underlying `FileSystem`. There is initially one concrete
implementation, `NodeJsFileSystem`, which is simply wrapping the
`fs` library of NodeJs.
Going forward, we can provide a `MockFileSystem` for test, which
should allow us to stop using `mock-fs` for most of the unit tests.
We could also implement a `CachedFileSystem` that may improve the
performance of ngcc.

Previously, all of a program's files would be copied into the __ivy_ngcc__
folder where ngcc then writes its modifications into. The set of source files
in a program however is much larger than the source files contained within
the entry-point of interest, so many more files were copied than necessary.
Even worse, it may occur that an unrelated file in the program would collide
with an already existing source file, resulting in incorrectly overwriting
a file with unrelated content. This behavior has actually been observed
with @angular/animations and @angular/platform-browser/animations, where
the former package would overwrite declaration files of the latter package.
This commit fixes the issue by only copying relevant source files when cloning
a bundle's content into __ivy_ngcc__.
