TypeScript 4.2 has changed its emitted syntax for synthetic constructors
when using `downlevelIteration`, which affects ES5 bundles that have
been downleveled from ES2015 bundles. This is typically the case for UMD
bundles in the APF spec, as they are generated by downleveling the
ESM2015 bundle into ES5. The reflection capabilities in the runtime need
to recognize this new form to correctly deal with synthesized
constructors, as otherwise JIT compilation could generate invalid
factory functions.

In the Angular Package Format, we always shipped UMD bundles and previously even ES5 module output.
With V10, we removed the ES5 module output but kept the UMD ES5 output.
For this, we were able to remove our second TypeScript transpilation. Instead we started only
building ES2015 output and then downleveled it to ES5 UMD for the NPM packages. This worked
as expected but unveiled an issue in the `@angular/core` reflection capabilities.
In JIT mode, Angular determines constructor parameters (for DI) using the `ReflectionCapabilities`. The
reflection capabilities basically read runtime metadata of classes to determine the DI parameters. Such
metadata can be either stored in static class properties like `ctorParameters` or within TypeScript's `design:params`.
If Angular comes across a class that does not have any parameter metadata, it tries to detect if the
given class is actually delegating to an inherited class. It does this naively in JIT by checking if the
stringified class (function in ES5) matches a certain pattern. e.g.
```js
function MatTable() {
var _this = _super.apply(this, arguments) || this;
```
These patterns are reluctant to changes of the class output. If a class is not recognized properly, the
DI parameters will be assumed empty and the class is **incorrectly** constructed without arguments.
This actually happened as part of v10 now. Since we downlevel ES2015 to ES5 (instead of previously
compiling sources directly to ES5), the class output changed slightly so that Angular no longer detects
it. e.g.
```js
var _this = _super.apply(this, __spread(arguments)) || this;
```
This happens because the ES2015 output will receive an auto-generated constructor if the class
defines class properties. This constructor is then already containing an explicit `super` call.
```js
export class MatTable extends CdkTable {
constructor() {
super(...arguments);
this.disabled = true;
}
}
```
If we then downlevel this file to ES5 with `--downlevelIteration`, TypeScript adjusts the `super` call so that
the spread operator is no longer used (not supported in ES5). The resulting super call is different to the
super call that would have been emitted if we would directly transpile to ES5. Ultimately, Angular no
longer detects such classes as having an delegate constructor -> and DI breaks.
We fix this by expanding the rather naive RegExp patterns used for the reflection capabilities
so that downleveled pass-through/delegate constructors are properly detected. There is a risk
of a false-positive as we cannot detect whether `__spread` is actually the TypeScript spread
helper, but given the reflection patterns already make lots of assumptions (e.g. that `super` is
actually the superclass, we should be fine making this assumption too. The false-positive would
not result in a broken app, but rather in unnecessary providers being injected (as a noop).

The major one that affects the angular repo is the removal of the bootstrap attribute in nodejs_binary, nodejs_test and jasmine_node_test in favor of using templated_args --node_options=--require=/path/to/script. The side-effect of this is that the bootstrap script does not get the require.resolve patches with explicitly loading the targets _loader.js file.

Currently we only run Saucelabs on PRs using the legacy View Engine
build. Switching that build to Ivy is not trivial and there are various
options:
1. Updating the R3 switches to use POST_R3 by default. At first glance,
this doesn't look easy because the current ngtsc switch logic seems to
be unidirectional (only PRE_R3 to POST_R3).
2. Updating the legacy setup to run with Ivy. This sounds like the easiest
solution at first.. but it turns out to be way more complicated. Packages
would need to be built with ngtsc using legacy tools (i.e. first building
the compiler-cli; and then building packages) and View Engine only tests
would need to be determined and filtered out. Basically it will result in
re-auditing all test targets. This is contradictory to the fact that we have
this information in Bazel already.
3. Creating a new job that runs tests on Saucelabs with Bazel. We specify
fine-grained test targets that should run. This would be a good start
(e.g. acceptance tests) and also would mean that we do not continue maintaining
the legacy setup..
This commit implements the third option as it allows us to move forward
with the general Bazel migration. We don't want to spend too much time
on our legacy setup since it will be removed anyway in the future.

This is a refactoring that moves the source code around to provide a better
platform for adding the compile-time inlining.
1. Move the global side-effect import from the primary entry-point to a
secondary entry-point @angular/localize/init.
This has two benefits: first it allows the top level entry-point to
contain tree-shakable shareable code; second it gives the side-effect
import more of an "action" oriented name, which indicates that importing
it does something tangible
2. Move all the source code into the top src folder, and import the localize
related functions into the localize/init/index.ts entry-point.
This allows the different parts of the package to share code without
a proliferation of secondary entry-points (i.e. localize/utils).
3. Avoid publicly exporting any utilities at this time - the only public
API at this point are the global `$localize` function and the two runtime
helpers `loadTranslations()` and `clearTranslations()`.
This does not mean that we will not expose additional helpers for 3rd
party tooling in the future, but it avoid us preemptively exposing
something that we might want to change in the near future.
Notes:
It is not possible to have the `$localize` code in the same Bazel package
as the rest of the code. If we did this, then the bundled `@angular/localize/init`
entry-point code contains all of the helper code, even though most of it is not used.
Equally it is not possible to have the `$localize` types (i.e. `LocalizeFn`
and `TranslateFn`) defined in the `@angular/localize/init` entry-point because
these types are needed for the runtime code, which is inside the primary
entry-point. Importing them from `@angular/localize/init` would run the
side-effect.
The solution is to have a Bazel sub-package at `//packages/localize/src/localize`
which contains these types and the `$localize` function implementation.
The primary `//packages/localize` entry-point imports the types without
any side-effect.
The secondary `//packages/localize/init` entry-point imports the `$localize`
function and attaches it to the global scope as a side-effect, without
bringing with it all the other utility functions.
BREAKING CHANGES:
The entry-points have changed:
* To attach the `$localize` function to the global scope import from
`@angular/localize/init`. Previously it was `@angular/localize`.
* To access the `loadTranslations()` and `clearTranslations()` functions,
import from `@angular/localize`. Previously it was `@angular/localize/run_time`.

This commit changes the Angular compiler (ivy-only) to generate `$localize`
tagged strings for component templates that use `i18n` attributes.
BREAKING CHANGE
Since `$localize` is a global function, it must be included in any applications
that use i18n. This is achieved by importing the `@angular/localize` package
into an appropriate bundle, where it will be executed before the renderer
needs to call `$localize`. For CLI based projects, this is best done in
the `polyfills.ts` file.
```ts
import '@angular/localize';
```
For non-CLI applications this could be added as a script to the index.html
file or another suitable script file.

Plural ICU expressions depend on the locale (different languages have different plural forms). Until now the locale was hard coded as `en-US`.
For compatibility reasons, if you use ivy with AOT and bootstrap your app with `bootstrapModule` then the `LOCALE_ID` token will be set automatically for ivy, which is then used to get the correct plural form.
If you use JIT, you need to define the `LOCALE_ID` provider on the module that you bootstrap.
For `TestBed` you can use either `configureTestingModule` or `overrideProvider` to define that provider.
If you don't use the compat mode and start your app with `renderComponent` you need to call `ɵsetLocaleId` manually to define the `LOCALE_ID` before bootstrap. We expect this to change once we start adding the new i18n APIs, so don't rely on this function (there's a reason why it's a private export).

We are close enough to blacklist a few test targets, rather than whitelist targets to run...
Because bazel rules can be composed of other rules that don't inherit tags automatically,
I had to explicitly mark all of our ts_library and ng_module targes with "ivy-local" and
"ivy-jit" tags so that we can create a query that excludes all fixme- tagged targets even
if those targets are composed of other targets that don't inherit this tag.
This is the updated overview of ivy related bazel tags:
- ivy-only: target that builds or runs only under ivy
- fixme-ivy-jit: target that doesn't yet build or run under ivy with --compile=jit
- fixme-ivy-local: target that doesn't yet build or run under ivy with --compile=local
- no-ivy-jit: target that is not intended to build or run under ivy with --compile=jit
- no-ivy-local: target that is not intended to build or run under ivy with --compile=local

Two new CircleCI environments are created: test_ivy_jit and test_ivy_aot.

for the legacy View Engine compiled code as well as for ivy-jit and ivy-aot.
