George Kalpakas 793cb328de fix(ngcc): give up re-spawing crashed worker process after 3 attempts (#36626)
Previously, when the last worker process crashed, the master process
would try to re-spawn it indefinitely. This could lead to an infinite
loop (if for some reason the worker process kept crashing).

This commit avoids this by limiting the number of re-spawn attempts to
3, after which ngcc will exit with an error.

Angular Compatibility Compiler (ngcc)

This compiler will convert node_modules compiled with ngc, into node_modules which appear to have been compiled with ngtsc.

This conversion will allow such "legacy" packages to be used by the Ivy rendering engine.

yarn bazel build //packages/compiler-cli/ngcc

Unit Testing

The unit tests are built and run using Bazel:

yarn bazel test //packages/compiler-cli/ngcc/test
