Since we generate a `.mjs` file as entry-point for jasmine tests,
a couple of issues prevented the transitive dependencies from
bootstrap targets to be brought in (causing resolution errors):
1. The `_files` (previously `_esm2015`) targets are no longer needed,
and they also miss all the information on runfiles.
2. The aspect for computing linker mappings does not respect the
`bootstrap` attribute from the `spec_entrypoint` so we manually
add the extract ESM output targets (this rule works with the aspect
and forwards linker mappings).

For every `ts_library` target we expose a shorthand that grants
access to the JS files because `DefaultInfo` of a ts library
only exposes the `.d.ts` files.
We rename this away from `es2015` since in practice it's a much
higher target these days. Additionally we no longer use the devmode
output but rather use the prodmode output which has the explicit
`.mjs` output- compatible with ESM.

For standalone components it may be beneficial to group multiple declarations
into a single array, that can then be imported all at once in `Component.imports`.
If this array is declared within a library, however, would the AOT compiler
need to extract the contents of the array from the declaration file. This
requires that the array is constructed using an `as const` cast, which results
in a readonly tuple declaration in the generated .d.ts file of the library:
```ts
export declare const DECLARATIONS: readonly [typeof StandaloneDir];
```
The partial evaluator logic did not support this syntax, so this pattern was
not functional when a library is involved. This commit adds the necessary
logic in the static interpreter to evaluate this type at compile time.

Most of the issues came from some changes in TypeScript where the `decorators` and `modifiers` properties were removed from most node types, and were combined into a single `modifiers` array. Since we need to continue supporting TS 4.6 and 4.7 until v15, I ended up creating a new `ngtsc/ts_compatibility` directory to make it easier to reuse the new backwards-compatible code.

This commit reworks the partial evaluation system's concept of a
ForeignFunctionResolver. Previously, resolvers were expected to return a
`ts.Expression` which the partial evaluator would continue evaluating,
eventually returning a value.
This works well for "transparent" foreign functions like `forwardRef`,
but for things like `ModuleWithProviders` it breaks down, because the
desired resolution value (the NgModule `Reference`) is _not_ the "correct"
evaluation of the function call.
To support better FFR implementations, this commit refactors the FFR system
so that resolvers operate on the `ts.CallExpression` instead, and are
given a callback to resolve further expressions if needed. If they cannot
resolve a given call expression, they have an `unresolvable` value that they
can return to indicate that.

As outlined in the previous commit which enabled the `esModuleInterop`
TypeScript compiler option, we need to update all namespace imports
for `typescript` to default imports. This is needed to allow for
TypeScript to be imported at runtime from an ES module.
Similar changes are needed for modules like `semver` where the types incorrectly
suggest named exports that will not exist at runtime when imported from ESM.
This commit refactors all imports to match with the lint rule we have
configured in the previous commit. See the previous commit for more
details on why certain imports have been changed.
A special case are the imports to `@babel/core` and `@babel/types`. For
these a special interop is needed as both default imports, or named
imports break the other module format. e.g default imports would work
well for ESM, but it breaks for CJS. For CJS, the named imports would
only work, but in ESM, only the default export exist. We work around
this for now until the devmode is using ESM as well (which would be
consistent with prodmode and gives us more valuable test results). More
details on the interop can be found in the `babel_core.ts` files (two
interops are needed for both localize/or the compiler-cli).

The Angular Core and localize package currently use deep imports for
code that is shipped. This is problematic as we want to ship the
compiler-cli as full-ESM. To achieve this we need to use a bundler and
this breaks deep imports.
We use a bundler for the compiler CLI because for full ESM
compatibility, we would need to explicitly add the `.js` extension
to all relative imports. This is very cumbersome and prone to mistakes
so to mitigate this problem in a safe way, we bundle the compiler-cli.
Note: Deep imports continue to exist for the language service as it
bundles the compiler-cli.

The static interpreter assumed that a foreign function expression would
have to be imported from the absolute module specifier that was used for
the foreign function itself. This assumption does not hold for the
`forwardRef` foreign function resolver, as that extracts the resolved
expression from the function's argument, which is not behind the
absolute module import of the `forwardRef` function.
The prior behavior has worked for the typical usage of `forwardRef`,
when it is contained within the same source file as where the static
evaluation started. In that case, the resulting reference would
incorrectly have an absolute module guess of `@angular/core`, but the
local identifier emit strategy was capable of emitting the reference
without generating an import using the absolute module guess.
In the scenario where the static interpreter would first have to follow
a reference to a different source that contained the `forwardRef` would
the compilation fail. In that case, there is no local identifier
available such that the absolute module emitter would try to locate the
imported symbol from `@angular/core`. which fails as the symbol is not
exported from there.
This commit fixes the issue by checking whether a foreign expression
occurs in the same source file as the call expression. If it does, then
the absolute module specifier that was used to resolve the call
expression is ignored.

This commit complements the support for the `__spreadArray` helper that

and `__spreadArrays` used the `__read` helper internally, but the helper
is now emitted as an argument to `__spreadArray` so ngcc now needs to
support evaluating it statically. The real implementation of `__read`
reads an iterable into an array, but for ngcc's static evaluation
support it is sufficient to only deal with arrays as is. Additionally,
the optional `n` parameter is not supported as that is only emitted for
array destructuring syntax, which ngcc does not have to support.

JavaScript bundles that ngcc has to process, so ngcc has the ability to
statically detect these helpers and provide evaluation logic for them.
Because Angular is adopting support for TypeScript 4.2 it becomes
possible for libraries to be compiled by TypeScript 4.2 and thus ngcc
has to add support for the `__spreadArray` helper. The deprecated
`__spread` and `__spreadArrays` helpers are not affected by this change.

In Angular programs, changing a file may require other files to be
emitted as well due to implicit NgModule dependencies. For example, if
the selector of a directive is changed then all components that have
that directive in their compilation scope need to be recompiled, as the
change of selector may affect the directive matching results.
Until now, the compiler solved this problem using a single dependency
graph. The implicit NgModule dependencies were represented in this
graph, such that a changed file would correctly also cause other files
to be re-emitted. This approach is limited in a few ways:
1. The file dependency graph is used to determine whether it is safe to
reuse the analysis data of an Angular decorated class. This analysis
data is invariant to unrelated changes to the NgModule scope, but
because the single dependency graph also tracked the implicit
NgModule dependencies the compiler had to consider analysis data as
stale far more often than necessary.
2. It is typical for a change to e.g. a directive to not affect its
public API—its selector, inputs, outputs, or exportAs clause—in which
case there is no need to re-emit all declarations in scope, as their
compilation output wouldn't have changed.
This commit implements a mechanism by which the compiler is able to
determine the impact of a change by comparing it to the prior
compilation. To achieve this, a new graph is maintained that tracks all
public API information of all Angular decorated symbols. During an
incremental compilation this information is compared to the information
that was captured in the most recently succeeded compilation. This
determines the exact impact of the changes to the public API, which
is then used to determine which files need to be re-emitted.
Note that the file dependency graph remains, as it is still used to
track the dependencies of analysis data. This graph does no longer track
the implicit NgModule dependencies, which allows for better reuse of
analysis data.
These changes also fix a bug where template type-checking would fail to
incorporate changes made to a transitive base class of a
directive/component. This used to be a problem because transitive base
classes were not recorded as a transitive dependency in the file
dependency graph, such that prior type-check blocks would erroneously
be reused.
This commit also fixes an incorrectness where a change to a declaration
in NgModule `A` would not cause the declarations in NgModules that
import from NgModule `A` to be re-emitted. This was intentionally
incorrect as otherwise the performance of incremental rebuilds would
have been far worse. This is no longer a concern, as the compiler is now
able to only re-emit when actually necessary.

When the compiler is invoked via ngc or the Angular CLI, its APIs are used
under the assumption that Angular analysis/diagnostics are only requested if
the program has no TypeScript-level errors. A result of this assumption is
that the incremental engine has not needed to resolve changes via its
dependency graph when the program contained broken imports, since broken
imports are a TypeScript error.
The Angular Language Service for Ivy is using the compiler as a backend, and
exercising its incremental compilation APIs without enforcing this
assumption. As a result, the Language Service has run into issues where
broken imports cause incremental compilation to fail and produce incorrect
results.
This commit introduces a mechanism within the compiler to keep track of
files for which dependency analysis has failed, and to always treat such
files as potentially affected by future incremental steps. This is tested
via the Language Service infrastructure to ensure that the compiler is doing
the right thing in the case of invalid imports.

Previously, UMD/CommonJS class inline declarations of the form:
```ts
exports.Foo = (function() { function Foo(); return Foo; })();
```
were capturing the whole IIFE as the implementation, rather than
the inner class (i.e. `function Foo() {}` in this case). This caused
the interpreter to break when it was trying to access such an export,
since it would try to evaluate the IIFE rather than treating it as a class
declaration.

Some inline declarations are of the form:
```
exports.<name> = <implementation>;

the declaration `node`.

these expressions as described above.
PR Close#39267
Previously the `ConcreteDeclaration` and `InlineDeclaration` had
different properties for the underlying node type. And the `InlineDeclaration`
did not store a value that represented its declaration.
It turns out that a natural declaration node for an inline type is the
expression. For example in UMD/CommonJS this would be the `exports.<name>`
property access node.
So this expression is now used for the `node` of `InlineDeclaration` types
and the `expression` property is dropped.
To support this the codebase has been refactored to use a new `DeclarationNode`
type which is a union of `ts.Declaration|ts.Expression` instead of `ts.Declaration`
throughout.

During AOT compilation, the value of some expressions need to be known at
compile time. The compiler has the ability to statically evaluate expressions
the best it can, but there can be occurrences when an expression cannot be
evaluated statically. For instance, the evaluation could depend on a dynamic
value or syntax is used that the compiler does not understand. Alternatively,
it is possible that an expression could be statically evaluated but the
resulting value would be of an incorrect type.
In these situations, it would be helpful if the compiler could explain why it
is unable to evaluate an expression. To this extend, the static interpreter
in Ivy keeps track of a trail of `DynamicValue`s which follow the path of nodes
that were considered all the way to the node that causes an expression to be
considered dynamic. Up until this commit, this rich trail of information was
not surfaced to a developer so the compiler was of little help to explain
why static evaluation failed, resulting in situations that are hard to debug
and resolve.
This commit adds much more insight to the diagnostic that is produced for static
evaluation errors. For dynamic values, the trail of `DynamicValue` instances
is presented to the user in a meaningful way. If a value is available but not
of the correct type, the type of the resolved value is shown.

When the compiler encounters a function call within an NgModule imports
section, it attempts to resolve it to an NgModule-annotated class by
looking at the function body and evaluating the statements there. This
evaluation can only understand simple functions which have a single
return statement as their body. If the function the user writes is more
complex than that, the compiler won't be able to understand it and
previously the PartialEvaluator would return a "DynamicValue" for
that import.
With this change, in the event the function body resolution fails the
PartialEvaluator will now attempt to use its foreign function resolvers to
determine the correct result from the function's type signtaure instead. If
the function is annotated with a correct ModuleWithProviders type, the
compiler will be able to understand the import without static analysis of
the function body.

This commit adds support in the Angular monorepo and in the Angular
compiler(s) for TypeScript 3.8. All packages can now compile with
TS 3.8.
For most of the repo, only a handful few typings adjustments were needed:
* TS 3.8 has a new `CustomElementConstructor` DOM type, which enforces a
zero-argument constructor. The `NgElementConstructor` type previously
declared a required `injector` argument despite the fact that its
implementation allowed `injector` to be optional. The interface type was
updated to reflect the optionality of the argument.
* Certain error messages were changed, and expectations in tests were
updated as a result.
* tsserver (part of language server) now returns performance information in
responses, so test expectations were changed to only assert on the actual
body content of responses.
For compiler-cli and schematics (which use the TypeScript AST) a major
breaking change was the introduction of the export form:
```typescript
export * as foo from 'bar';
```
This is a `ts.NamespaceExport`, and the `exportClause` of a
`ts.ExportDeclaration` can now take this type as well as `ts.NamedExports`.
This broke a lot of places where `exportClause` was assumed to be
`ts.NamedExports`.
For the most part these breakages were in cases where it is not necessary
to handle the new `ts.NamedExports` anyway. ngtsc's design uses the
`ts.TypeChecker` APIs to understand syntax and so automatically supports the
new form of exports.
The View Engine compiler on the other hand extracts TS structures into
metadata.json files, and that format was not designed for namespaced
exports. As a result it will take a nontrivial amount of work if we want to
support such exports in View Engine. For now, these new exports are not
accounted for in metadata.json, and so using them in "folded" Angular
expressions will result in errors (probably claiming that the referenced
exported namespace doesn't exist).
Care was taken to only use TS APIs which are present in 3.7/3.6, as Angular
needs to remain compatible with these for the time being.

In ES5 code, TypeScript requires certain helpers (such as
`__spreadArrays()`) to be able to support ES2015+ features. These
helpers can be either imported from `tslib` (by setting the
`importHelpers` TS compiler option to `true`) or emitted inline (by
setting the `importHelpers` and `noEmitHelpers` TS compiler options to
`false`, which is the default value for both).
Ngtsc's `StaticInterpreter` (which is also used during ngcc processing)
is able to statically evaluate some of these helpers (currently
`__assign()`, `__spread()` and `__spreadArrays()`), as long as
`ReflectionHost#getDefinitionOfFunction()` correctly detects the
declaration of the helper. For this to happen, the left-hand side of the
corresponding call expression (i.e. `__spread(...)` or
`tslib.__spread(...)`) must be evaluated as a function declaration for
`getDefinitionOfFunction()` to be called with.
In the case of imported helpers, the `tslib.__someHelper` expression was
resolved to a function declaration of the form
`export declare function __someHelper(...args: any[][]): any[];`, which
allows `getDefinitionOfFunction()` to correctly map it to a TS helper.
In contrast, in the case of emitted helpers (and regardless of the
module format: `CommonJS`, `ESNext`, `UMD`, etc.)), the `__someHelper`
identifier was resolved to a variable declaration of the form
`var __someHelper = (this && this.__someHelper) || function () { ... }`,
which upon further evaluation was categorized as a `DynamicValue`
(prohibiting further evaluation by the `getDefinitionOfFunction()`).
As a result of the above, emitted TypeScript helpers were not evaluated
in ES5 code.

This commit changes the detection of TS helpers to leverage the existing
`KnownFn` feature (previously only used for built-in functions).
`Esm5ReflectionHost` is changed to always return `KnownDeclaration`s for

(`getDeclarationOfIdentifier()`).

No errors showed up.
Now with Ivy, when ngcc tries to process the library, an error
will be thrown. The error is stating that the host bindings should
be an object (which they obviously are). This happens because
TypeScript transforms the object spread to individual
`Object.assign` calls (for compatibility).
The partial evaluator used by the `@Directive` annotation handler
is unable to process this expression because there is no
integrated support for `Object.assign`. In View Engine, this was
not a problem because the `metadata.json` files from the library
were used to compute the host bindings.
