fix(ivy): allow abstract directives to have an invalid constructor (#32987)
For abstract directives, i.e. directives without a selector, it may happen that their constructor is called explicitly from a subclass, hence its parameters are not required to be valid for Angular's DI purposes. Prior to this commit however, having an abstract directive with a constructor that has parameters that are not eligible for Angular's DI would produce a compilation error. A similar scenario may occur for `@Injectable`s, where an explicit `use*` definition allows for the constructor to be irrelevant. For example, the situation where `useFactory` is specified allows for the constructor to be called explicitly with any value, so its constructor parameters are not required to be valid. For `@Injectable`s this is handled by generating a DI factory function that throws. This commit implements the same solution for abstract directives, such that a compilation error is avoided while still producing an error at runtime if the type is instantiated implicitly by Angular's DI mechanism. Fixes #32981 PR Close #32987
