Previous implementation would fire changes `QueryList.changes.subscribe`
whenever the `QueryList` was recomputed. This resulted in artificially
high number of change notifications, as it is possible that recomputing

This commit updates the logic that calculates `useFactory` function arguments to avoid relying on `instanceof`
checks (thus always retaining symbols) and relies on flags that DI decorators contain (as a monkey-patched property).
Another perf benefit is having less megamorphic reads while calculating args for the `useFactory` call: we used to
check whether a token has `ngMetadataName` property 4 times (in worst case), now we have just 1 megamorphic read in
all cases.

There are two parts to this commit:
1. Revert the changes from #38379. This change had an incomplete view of
how things worked and also diverged the implementations of
`applyRedirects` and `recognize` even more.
2. Apply the fixes from the `recognize` algorithm to ensure that named
outlets with empty path parents can be matched. This change also passes
all the tests that were added in #38379 with the added benefit of being
a more complete fix that stays in-line with the `recognize` algorithm.
This was made possible by using the same approach for `split` by
always creating segments for empty path matches (previously, this was
only done in `applyRedirects` if there was a `redirectTo` value). At the
end of the expansions, we need to squash all empty segments so that
serializing the final `UrlTree` returns the same result as before.

DI providers can be defined via `useFactory` function, which may have arguments configured via `deps` array.
The `deps` array may contain DI flags represented by DI decorators (such as `@Self`, `@SkipSelf`, etc). Prior to this
commit, having the `@Host` decorator in `deps` array resulted in runtime error in Ivy. The problem was that the `@Host`

When a `ViewContainerRef` is injected, we dynamically create a comment node next to the host
so that it can be used as an anchor point for inserting views. The comment node is inserted
through the `appendChild` helper from `node_manipulation.ts` in most cases.
The problem with using `appendChild` here is that it has some extra logic which doesn't return
a parent `RNode` if an element is at the root of a component. I __think__ that this is a performance
optimization which is used to avoid inserting an element in one place in the DOM and then
moving it a bit later when it is projected. This can break down in some cases when creating
a `ViewContainerRef` for a non-component node at the root of another component like the following:
```
<root>
<div #viewContainerRef></div>
</root>
```
In this case the `#viewContainerRef` node is at the root of a component so we intentionally don't
insert it, but since its anchor element was created manually, it'll never be projected. This will
prevent any views added through the `ViewContainerRef` from being inserted into the DOM.
These changes resolve the issue by not going through `appendChild` at all when creating a comment
node for `ViewContainerRef`. This should work identically since `appendChild` doesn't really do
anything with the T structures anyway, it only uses them to reach the relevant DOM nodes.

Currently when an instance of the `FormControlName` directive is destroyed, the Forms package invokes
the `cleanUpControl` to clear all directive-specific logic (such as validators, onChange handlers,
etc) from a bound control. The logic of the `cleanUpControl` function should revert all setup
performed by the `setUpControl` function. However the `cleanUpControl` is too aggressive and removes
all callbacks related to the onChange and disabled state handling. This is causing problems when
a form control is bound to multiple FormControlName` directives, causing other instances of that
directive to stop working correctly when the first one is destroyed.
This commit updates the cleanup logic to only remove callbacks added while setting up a control
for a given directive instance.
The fix is needed to allow adding `cleanUpControl` function to other places where cleanup is needed
(missing this function calls in some other places causes memory leak issues).

In ViewEngine, SelfSkip would navigate up the tree to get tokens from
the parent node, skipping the child. This restores that functionality in
Ivy. In ViewEngine, if a special token (e.g. ElementRef) was not found
in the NodeInjector tree, the ModuleInjector was also used to lookup
that token. While special tokens like ElementRef make sense only in a
context of a NodeInjector, we preserved ViewEngine logic for now to
avoid breaking changes.
We identified 4 scenarios related to @SkipSelf and special tokens where
ViewEngine behavior was incorrect and is likely due to bugs. In Ivy this
is implemented to provide a more intuitive API. The list of scenarios
can be found below.
1. When Injector is used in combination with @Host and @SkipSelf on the
first Component within a module and the injector is defined in the
module, ViewEngine will get the injector from the module. In Ivy, it
does not do this and throws instead.
2. When retrieving a @ViewContainerRef while @SkipSelf and @Host are
present, in ViewEngine, it throws an exception. In Ivy it returns the
host ViewContainerRef.
3. When retrieving a @ViewContainerRef on an embedded view and @SkipSelf
is present, in ViewEngine, the ref is null. In Ivy it returns the parent
ViewContainerRef.
4. When utilizing viewProviders and providers, a child component that is
nested within a parent component that has @SkipSelf on a viewProvider
value, if that provider is provided by the parent component's
viewProviders and providers, ViewEngine will return that parent's
viewProviders value, which violates how viewProviders' visibility should
work. In Ivy, it retrieves the value from providers, as it should.
These discrepancies all behave as they should in Ivy and are likely bugs
in ViewEngine.

Currently we read lifecycle hooks eagerly during `ɵɵdefineComponent`.
The result is that it is not possible to do any sort of meta-programing
such as mixins or adding lifecycle hooks using custom decorators since
any such code executes after `ɵɵdefineComponent` has extracted the
lifecycle hooks from the prototype. Additionally the behavior is
inconsistent between AOT and JIT mode. In JIT mode overriding lifecycle
hooks is possible because the whole `ɵɵdefineComponent` is placed in
getter which is executed lazily. This is because JIT mode must compile a
template which can be specified as `templateURL` and those we are
waiting for its resolution.
- `+` `ɵɵdefineComponent` becomes smaller as it no longer needs to copy
lifecycle hooks from prototype to `ComponentDef`
- `-` `ɵɵNgOnChangesFeature` feature is now always included with the
codebase as it is no longer tree shakable.
Previously we have read lifecycle hooks from prototype in the
`ɵɵdefineComponent` so that lifecycle hook access would be monomorphic.
This decision was made before we had `T*` data structures. By not
reading the lifecycle hooks we are moving the megamorhic read form
`ɵɵdefineComponent` to instructions. However, the reads happen on
`firstTemplatePass` only and are subsequently cached in the `T*` data
structures. The result is that the overall performance should be same
(or slightly better as the intermediate `ComponentDef` has been
removed.)

be a feature.)

Interestingly enough, our rollup bundle optimization pipeline
did not work properly before 1b827b058e5060963590628d4735e6ac83c6dfdd.
Unused declarations were not elided because build optimizer did not
consider the Angular packages as side-effect free. Build optimizer has
a hard-coded list of Angular packages that are considered side-effect
free. Though this one did not match in the old version of the rollup
bundle rule, as internal sources were resolved through their resolved
bazel-out paths. Hence build optimizer could not detect the known
Angular framework packages. Now though, since we leverage the
Bazel-idiomatic `@bazel/rollup` implementation, sources are resolved
through linked `node_modules`, and build optimizer is able to properly
detect files as side-effect free.

In v7 of Angular we removed `tsickle` from the default `ngc` pipeline.
This had the negative potential of breaking ES2015 output and SSR due
to a limitation in TypeScript.
TypeScript by default preserves type information for decorated constructor
parameters when `emitDecoratorMetadata` is enabled. For example,
consider this snippet below:
```
@Directive()
export class MyDirective {
constructor(button: MyButton) {}
}
export class MyButton {}
```
TypeScript would generate metadata for the `MyDirective` class it has
a decorator applied. This metadata would be needed in JIT mode, or
for libraries that provide `MyDirective` through NPM. The metadata would
look as followed:
```
let MyDirective = class MyDir {}
MyDirective = __decorate([
Directive(),
__metadata("design:paramtypes", [MyButton]),
], MyDirective);
let MyButton = class MyButton {}
```
Notice that TypeScript generated calls to `__decorate` and
`__metadata`. These calls are needed so that the Angular compiler
is able to determine whether `MyDirective` is actually an directive,
and what types are needed for dependency injection.
The limitation surfaces in this concrete example because `MyButton`
is declared after the `__metadata(..)` call, while `__metadata`
actually directly references `MyButton`. This is illegal though because
`MyButton` has not been declared at this point. This is due to the
so-called temporal dead zone in JavaScript. Errors like followed will
be reported at runtime when such file/code evaluates:
```
Uncaught ReferenceError: Cannot access 'MyButton' before initialization
```
As noted, this is a TypeScript limitation because ideally TypeScript
shouldn't evaluate `__metadata`/reference `MyButton` immediately.
Instead, it should defer the reference until `MyButton` is actually
declared. This limitation will not be fixed by the TypeScript team
though because it's a limitation as per current design and they will
only revisit this once the tc39 decorator proposal is finalized
(currently stage-2 at time of writing).
Given this wontfix on the TypeScript side, and our heavy reliance on
this metadata in libraries (and for JIT mode), we intend to fix this
from within the Angular compiler by downleveling decorators to static
properties that don't need to evaluate directly. For example:
```
MyDirective.ctorParameters = () => [MyButton];
```
With this snippet above, `MyButton` is not referenced directly. Only
lazily when the Angular runtime needs it. This mitigates the temporal
dead zone issue caused by a limitation in TypeScript's decorator
metadata output. See: https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/27519.
In the past (as noted; before version 7), the Angular compiler by
default used tsickle that already performed this transformation. We
moved the transformation to the CLI for JIT and `ng-packager`, but now
we realize that we can move this all to a single place in the compiler
so that standalone ngc consumers can benefit too, and that we can
disable tsickle in our Bazel `ngc-wrapped` pipeline (that currently
still relies on tsickle to perform this decorator processing).
This transformation also has another positive side-effect of making
Angular application/library code more compatible with server-side
rendering. In principle, TypeScript would also preserve type information
for decorated class members (similar to how it did that for constructor
parameters) at runtime. This becomes an issue when your application
relies on native DOM globals for decorated class member types. e.g.
```
@Input() panelElement: HTMLElement;
```
Your application code would then reference `HTMLElement` directly
whenever the source file is loaded in NodeJS for SSR. `HTMLElement`
does not exist on the server though, so that will become an invalid
reference. One could work around this by providing global mocks for
these DOM symbols, but that doesn't match up with other places where
dependency injection is used for mocking DOM/browser specific symbols.
More context in this issue: #30586. The TL;DR here is that the Angular
compiler does not care about types for these class members, so it won't
ever reference `HTMLElement` at runtime.
