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.

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
iterated type. This has introduced situations where the template type
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
addition to the constrained type parameter `U`, allowing TypeScript to
infer an appropriate `T`.

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.

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.

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`).

When `checkTypeOfPipes` is set to `false`, our TCB currently generates
the a statement like the following when pipes appear in the template:

This did enable us to get _some_ information from the Language Service
about pipes in this case because we still had access to the pipe
instance. However, because it is immediately cast to `any`, we cannot
get type information about the transform access. That means actions like "go to
definition", "find references", "quick info", etc. will return
incomplete information or fail altogether.
Instead, this commit changes the TCB to generate `(_pipe1.transform as any)(args)`.
This gives us the ability to get complete information for the LS

This commit changes the reference emitters in the Ivy compiler to prefer
non-aliased exports if they exist. This avoids selecting "private
exports" that may not be stable, e.g. the reexports that have been added
by the View Engine compiler. Such reexports are not stable and are
therefore not suitable to be emitted into partial compilations, as the
output of partial compilations should only reference stable symbols
from upstream libraries.
An alternative solution has been considered where ViewEngine-generated
exports would gain a certain prefix, such that the Ivy compiler could
just exclude those exports (see #41443). However, that solution would
be insufficient in case a library is built using partial compilation and
while depending itself on a VE-compiled library from earlier versions of
Angular, where the magic prefix would be missing. For such libraries,
ngcc would have generated reexports using the declared name if not already
present so this change does result in choosing the correct export.
Because ngcc always generates reexports using the declared name even if
an aliased export is present, this change causes those ngcc-generated
exports to be chosen in downstream libraries using partial compilation.
This is unfortunate as it means that the declared names become
effectively public even if the library author was intentionally
exporting it using an alias. This commit does not address this problem;
it is expected that this should not result in widespread issues across
the library ecosystem.

Currently if a component defines a template inline, but not through a
string literal, the partial compilation references the template expression
as is. This is problematic because the component declaration can no longer
be processed by the linker later as there is no static interpretation. e.g.
```js
const myTemplate = `...`;
TestCmp.ɵcmp = i0.ɵɵngDeclareComponent({
version: "0.0.0-PLACEHOLDER",
type: TestCmp,
selector: "test-cmp",
ngImport: i0,
template: myTemplate,
isInline: true
});
```
To fix this, we use the the resolved template in such cases so that
the linker can process the template/component declaration as expected.

This is follow-up from #41437 and it reduces the amount of code we generate for safe property accesses (`a?.b`) and nullish coalescing (`a ?? b`) by:

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.

There were three options being made available to users of the linker:
- ` enableI18nLegacyMessageIdFormat`
- `i18nNormalizeLineEndingsInICUs`
- ` i18nUseExternalIds`
None of these should actually be configurable at linking time
because partially-linked libraries have tighter restrictions on
what i18n options can be used.
This commit removes those options from the `LinkerOptions` interface.
It was considered to add a check for backwards compatibilty to ensure
that if these options were being passed, and were different to the expected
defaults, we would throw an informative error. But from looking at the
Angular CLI (the only known client of the linker) it has never been setting
these options so they have already always been set to the defaults.
BREAKING CHANGE:

application that provides translations for these messages, will need to
migrate their message ids using the `localize-migrate` command line tool.

The Angular compiler has to actively keep default import statements
alive if they were only used in type-only positions, but have been
emitted as value expressions for DI purposes. A problem occurred in
incremental recompilations, where the relationship between an identifier
usage and its corresponding default import would not be considered. This
could result in the removal of the default import statement and caused
a `ReferenceError` at runtime.
This commit fixes the issue by storing the association from an
identifier to its default import declaration on the source file itself,
instead of within the `DefaultImportTracker` instance. The
`DefaultImportTracker` instance is only valid for a single compilation,
whereas the association from an identifier to a default import
declaration is valid as long as the `ts.SourceFile` is the same
instance.
A subsequent commit refactor the `DefaultImportTracker` to no longer
be responsible for registering the association, as its lifetime is
conceptually too short to do so.

The `emitDecoratorMetadata` compiler option does not have to be enabled
as Angular decorators are transformed by the AOT compiler. Having the
option enabled in our tests can hide issues around import preservation,
as with `emitDecoratorMetadata` enabled the TypeScript compiler itself
does not elide imports even if they are only used in type-positions.
This is unlike having `emitDecoratorMetadata` disabled, however; in that
case the Angular compiler has to actively trick TypeScript into
retaining default imports when an identifier in a type-only position has
been reified into a value position for DI purposes.
A subsequent commit addresses a bug in default import preservation
that relies on this flag being `false`.
