Pete Bacon Darwin 822b838fbc fix(ngcc): ensure that "inline exports" can be interpreted correctly (#39267)
Previously, inline exports of the form `exports.foo = <implementation>;` were
being interpreted (by the ngtsc `PartialInterpeter`) as `Reference` objects.
This is not what is desired since it prevents the value of the export
from being unpacked, such as when analyzing `NgModule` declarations:

```
exports.directives = [Directive1, Directive2];

@NgImport({declarations: [exports.directives]})
class AppModule {}
```

In this example the interpreter would think that `exports.directives`
was a reference rather than an array that needs to be unpacked.

This bug was picked up by the ngcc-validation repository. See
