refactor(core): improve API documentation for output (#55053)

This improves the API documentatino for `output` in angular.dev,
similar to how we improved the API for `input`.

Angular.dev can now show these documentation entries more
readable if annotated explicitly as initializer API.

Note: output API is short enough that we want to include
the types in the code snippet previews.
