This commit refactors the way info is retrieved from entry-point `package.json` files to make it easier to extract more info (such as the package's name) in the future. It also avoids reading and parsing the `package.json` file multiple times (as was happening before). PR Close #37040
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.
