The static interpreter assumed that a foreign function expression would
have to be imported from the absolute module specifier that was used for
the foreign function itself. This assumption does not hold for the
`forwardRef` foreign function resolver, as that extracts the resolved
expression from the function's argument, which is not behind the
absolute module import of the `forwardRef` function.
The prior behavior has worked for the typical usage of `forwardRef`,
when it is contained within the same source file as where the static
evaluation started. In that case, the resulting reference would
incorrectly have an absolute module guess of `@angular/core`, but the
local identifier emit strategy was capable of emitting the reference
without generating an import using the absolute module guess.
In the scenario where the static interpreter would first have to follow
a reference to a different source that contained the `forwardRef` would
the compilation fail. In that case, there is no local identifier
available such that the absolute module emitter would try to locate the
imported symbol from `@angular/core`. which fails as the symbol is not
exported from there.
This commit fixes the issue by checking whether a foreign expression
occurs in the same source file as the call expression. If it does, then
the absolute module specifier that was used to resolve the call
expression is ignored.

For the compilation of a component, the compiler verifies that the
imports it needs to generate to reference the used directives and pipes
would not create an import cycle in the program. This requires visiting
the transitive import graphs of all directive/pipe usage in search of
the component file. The observation can be made that all directive/pipe
usages can leverage the exploration work in search of the component
file, thereby allowing sub-graphs of the import graph to be only visited
once instead of repeatedly per usage. Additionally, the transitive
imports of a file are no longer collected into a set to reduce memory
pressure.

In #41995 the type of `TrackByFunction` was changed such that the
declaration of a `trackBy` function did not cause the item type to be
widened to the `trackBy`'s item type, which may be a supertype of the

checker is now reporting errors for cases where a `trackBy` function is
no longer assignable to `TrackByFunction`.
This commit fixes the error by also including the item type `T` in

Currently unless a listener inside of an embedded view tries to reference something from the parent view, or if the reference is a local ref, we don't generate the view restoration instructions and we allow for the value to be picked up from the context object in the function parameters. The problem is that the listener is only run during creation mode and the context object may have been swapped out afterwards.
These changes fix the issue by always generating the view restoration instructions for listeners inside templates.

In #42492 the template type checker became capable of replicating a
wider range of generic type parameters for use in template type-check
files. Any literal types within a type parameter would however emit
invalid code, as TypeScript was emitting the literals using the text as
extracted from the template type-check file instead of the original
source file where the type node was taken from.
This commit works around the issue by cloning any literal types and
marking them as synthetic, signalling to TypeScript that the literal
text has to be extracted from the node itself instead from the source
file.
This commit also excludes `import()` type nodes from being supported,
as their module specifier may potentially need to be rewritten.

Source files that contain directives or components that need an inline
type constructor or inline template type-check block would always be
considered as affected in incremental rebuilds. The inline operations
cause the source file to be updated in the TypeScript program that is
created for template type-checking, which becomes the reuse program
in a subsequent incremental rebuild.
In an incremental rebuild, the source files from the new user program
are compared to those from the reuse program. The updated source files
are not the same as the original source file from the user program, so
the incremental engine would mark the file which needed inline
operations as affected. This prevents incremental reuse for these files,
causing sub-optimal rebuild performance.
This commit attaches the original source file for source files that have
been updated with inline operations, such that the incremental engine
is able to compare source files using the original source file.

Previously, the template type checker would only opt-in to inline type
constructors if it could import all type references from absolute module
specifiers. This limitation was put into place in an abundance of
caution as there was a safe, but less performant, fallback available.
The language service is not capable of using this fallback, which now
means that the limitation of absolute module specifiers limits the
language service's ability to use accurate types for component/directive
classes that have generic type parameters.
This commit loosens the restriction such that type references are now
eligible for emit as long as they are exported.

When a component/directive has a generic type parameter, the template
type checker attempts to translate the type parameter such that the
type parameters can be replicated in the type constructor that is
emitted into the typecheck file.
Type parameters with a default clause would incorrectly be emitted into
the typecheck file using the original `ts.TypeNode` for the default
clause, such that `ts.TypeReferenceNode`s within the default clause
would likely be invalid (i.e. referencing a type for which no import is
present in the typecheck file). This did not result in user-facing
type-check errors as errors reported in type constructors are not
translated into template positions Regardless, this commit ensures that
`ts.TypeReferenceNode`s within defaults are properly translated into the
typecheck file.

The template type checker is capable of recreating generic type bounds
in a different context, rewriting type references along the way (if
possible). This was previously done using a visitor that only supported
a limited set of types, resulting in the inability to emit all sorts of
types (even if they don't contain type references at all).
The inability to emit generic type bounds was not critical when the type
parameter emitting logic was introduced, as the compiler also has a
fallback strategy of creating inline type constructors. However, this
fallback is not available to the language service, resulting in
inaccurate types when components/directives use a complex generic type.
To mitigate this problem, the specialized visitor has been replaced with
a generalized TypeScript transform, where only type references get
special treatment. This allows for more complex types to be emitted,
such as union and intersection types, object literal types and tuple
types.

In watch builds, the compiler attempts to reuse as much information from
a prior compilation as possible. To accomplish this, it keeps a
reference to the most recently succeeded `TraitCompiler`, which contains
all analysis data for the program. However, `TraitCompiler` has an
internal reference to an `IncrementalBuild`, which is itself built on
top of its prior state. Consequently, all prior compilations continued
to be referenced, preventing garbage collection from cleaning up these
instances.
This commit changes the `AnalyzedIncrementalState` to no longer retain
a `TraitCompiler` instance, but only the analysis data it contains. This

The compiler flag `compileNonExportedClasses` allows the Angular compiler to
process classes which are not exported at the top level of a source file.
This is often used to allow for AOT compilation of test classes inside
`it()` test blocks, for example.
Previously, the compiler would identify exported classes by looking for an
`export` modifier on the class declaration itself. This works for the
trivial case, but fails for indirectly exported classes:
```typescript
// Component is declared unexported.
@Component({...})
class FooCmp {...}
// Indirect export of FooCmp
export {FooCmp};
```
This is not an immediate problem for most application builds, since the
default value for `compileNonExportedClasses` is `true` and therefore such
classes get compiled regardless.
However, in the Angular Language Service now, `compileNonExportedClasses` is
forcibly overridden to `false`. That's because the tsconfig used by the IDE
and Language Service is often far broader than the application build's
configuration, and pulls in test files that can contain unexported classes
not designed with AOT compilation in mind.
Therefore, the Language Service has trouble working with such structures.
In this commit, the `ReflectionHost` gains a new API for detecting whether a
class is exported. The implementation of this method now not only considers
the `export` modifier, but also scans the `ts.SourceFile` for indirect
exports like the example above. This ensures the above case will be
processed directly in the Language Service.
This new operation is cached using an expando symbol on the `ts.SourceFile`,
ensuring good performance even when scanning large source files with lots of
exports (e.g. a FESM file under `ngcc`).

Indirect templates are templates produced by a non-literal expression value
of the `template` field in `@Component`. The compiler can statically
determine the template string, but there is not guaranteed to be a physical
file which contains the bytes of the template string. For example, the
template string may be computed by a concatenation expression: 'a' + 'b'.
Previously, the compiler would use the TS file path as the source map path
for indirect templates. This is incorrect, however, and breaks source
mapping for such templates, since the offsets within the template string do
not correspond to bytes of the TS file.
This commit returns the compiler to its old behavior for indirect templates,
which is to use `''` as the source map URL for such templates.

When `checkTypeOfPipes` is set to `false`, our TCB currently generates

incomplete information or fail altogether.

This commit updates the logic in the LS renaming to handle renaming of
pipes, both from the name expression in the pipe metadata as well as
from the template.
The approach here is to introduce a new concept for renaming: an
"indirect" rename. In this type of rename, we find rename locations
in with the native TS Language Service using a different node than the
one we are renaming. Using pipes as an example, if we want to rename the
pipe name from the string literal expression, we use the transform
method to find rename locations rather than the string literal itself
(which will not return any results because it's just a string).
So the general approach is:
* Determine the details about the requested rename location, i.e. the
targeted template node and symbol for a template rename, or the TS
node for a rename outside a template.
* Using the details of the location, determine if the node is attempting
to rename something that is an indirect rename (pipes, selectors,
bindings). Other renames are considered "direct" and we use whatever
results the native TSLS returns for the rename locations.
* In the case of indirect renames, we throw out results that do not
appear in the templates (in this case, the shim files). These results will be
for the "indirect" rename that we don't want to touch, but are only
using to find template results.
* Create an additional rename result for the string literal expression
that is used for the input/output alias, the pipe name, or the
selector.
Note that renaming is moving towards being much more accurate in its
results than "find references". When the approach for renaming
stabilizes, we may want to then port the changes back to being shared
with the approach for retrieving references.
