Th `ɵɵFactoryDef` type will appear in published libraries, via their typings
files, to describe what type dependencies a DI factory has. The parameters
on this type are used by tooling such as the Language Service to understand
the DI dependencies of the class being created by the factory.
This commit moves the type to the `public_definitions.ts` file alongside
the other types that have a similar role, and it renames it to `ɵɵFactoryDeclaration`
to align it with the other declaration types such as `ɵɵDirectiveDeclaration`
and so on.

These types are only used in the generated typings files to provide
information to the Angular compiler in order that it can compile code
in downstream libraries and applications.
This commit aliases these types to `unknown` to avoid exposing the
previous alias types such as `ɵɵDirectiveDef`, which are internal to
the compiler.

Previous implementation would fire changes `QueryList.changes.subscribe`
whenever the `QueryList` was recomputed. This resulted in artificially
high number of change notifications, as it is possible that recomputing
`QueryList` results in the same list. When the `QueryList` gets recomputed
is an implementation detail and it should not be the thing which determines
how often change event should fire.

This commit updates the code to move generated i18n statements into the `consts` field of
ComponentDef to avoid invoking `$localize` function before component initialization (to better
support runtime translations) and also avoid problems with lazy-loading when i18n defs may not
be present in a chunk where it's referenced.
Prior to this change the i18n statements were generated at the top leve:
```
var I18N_0;
if (typeof ngI18nClosureMode !== "undefined" && ngI18nClosureMode) {
var MSG_X = goog.getMsg(“…”);
I18N_0 = MSG_X;
} else {

}
defineComponent({
// ...
template: function App_Template(rf, ctx) {
i0.ɵɵi18n(2, I18N_0);
}
});
```
This commit updates the logic to generate the following code instead:
```
defineComponent({
// ...
consts: function() {
var I18N_0;
if (typeof ngI18nClosureMode !== "undefined" && ngI18nClosureMode) {
var MSG_X = goog.getMsg(“…”);
I18N_0 = MSG_X;

return [
I18N_0

},
template: function App_Template(rf, ctx) {

We currently use 16 bits to store information about nodes in a view.
The 16 bits give us 65536 entries in the array, but the problem is that while
the number is large, it can be reached by ~4300 directive instances with host
bindings which could realistically happen is a very large view, as seen in #37876.
Once we hit the limit, we end up overflowing which eventually leads to a runtime error.
These changes bump to using 20 bits which gives us around 1048576 entries in
the array or 16 times more than the current amount which could still technically
be reached, but is much less likely and the user may start hitting browser limitations
by that point.
I picked the 20 bit number since it gives us enough buffer over the 16 bit one,
while not being as massive as a 24 bit or 32 bit.
I've also added a dev mode assertion so it's easier to track down if it happens
again in the future.

Currently we read lifecycle hooks eagerly during `ɵɵdefineComponent`.
The result is that it is not possible to do any sort of meta-programing
such as mixins or adding lifecycle hooks using custom decorators since
any such code executes after `ɵɵdefineComponent` has extracted the
lifecycle hooks from the prototype. Additionally the behavior is
inconsistent between AOT and JIT mode. In JIT mode overriding lifecycle
hooks is possible because the whole `ɵɵdefineComponent` is placed in
getter which is executed lazily. This is because JIT mode must compile a
template which can be specified as `templateURL` and those we are
waiting for its resolution.
- `+` `ɵɵdefineComponent` becomes smaller as it no longer needs to copy
lifecycle hooks from prototype to `ComponentDef`
- `-` `ɵɵNgOnChangesFeature` feature is now always included with the
codebase as it is no longer tree shakable.
Previously we have read lifecycle hooks from prototype in the
`ɵɵdefineComponent` so that lifecycle hook access would be monomorphic.
This decision was made before we had `T*` data structures. By not
reading the lifecycle hooks we are moving the megamorhic read form
`ɵɵdefineComponent` to instructions. However, the reads happen on
`firstTemplatePass` only and are subsequently cached in the `T*` data
structures. The result is that the overall performance should be same
(or slightly better as the intermediate `ComponentDef` has been
removed.)

be a feature.)
- [ ] Discuss the future of `Features` as they hinder meta-programing.

Currently Angular internally already handles `InjectionToken` as
predicates for queries. This commit exposes this as public API as
developers already relied on this functionality but currently use
workarounds to satisfy the type constraints (e.g. `as any`).
We intend to make this public as it's low-effort to support, and
it's a significant key part for the use of light-weight tokens as
described in the upcoming guide: https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/36144.
In concrete, applications might use injection tokens over classes
for both optional DI and queries, because otherwise such references
cause classes to be always retained. This was also an issue in View
Engine, but now with Ivy, this pattern became worse, as factories are
directly attached to retained classes (ultimately ending up in the
production bundle, while being unused).
More details in the light-weight token guide and in: https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/16866.

Only refresh transplanted views at the insertion location in Ivy.
Previously, Ivy would check transplanted views at both the insertion and
declaration points. This is achieved by adding a marker to the insertion
tree when we encounter a transplanted view that needs to be refreshed at
its declaration. We use this marker as an extra indication that we still
need to descend and refresh those transplanted views at their insertion
locations even if the insertion view and/or its parents are not dirty.
This change fixes several issues:
* Transplanted views refreshed twice if both insertion and declaration
are dirty. This could be an error if the insertion component changes
result in data not being available to the transplanted view because it
is slated to be removed.
* CheckAlways transplanted views not refreshed if shielded by
non-dirty OnPush (fixes#35400)
* Transplanted views still refreshed when insertion tree is detached

Currently destroy hooks are stored in memory as `[1, hook, 5, hook]` where
the numbers represent the index at which to find the context and `hook` is
the function to be invoked. This breaks down for `multi` providers,
because the value at the index will be an array of providers, resulting in
the hook being invoked with an array of all the multi provider values,
rather than the provider that was destroyed. In ViewEngine `ngOnDestroy`
wasn't being called for `multi` providers at all.
These changes fix the issue by changing the structure of the destroy hooks to `[1, hook, 5, [0, hook, 3, hook]]` where the indexes inside the inner array point to the provider inside of the multi provider array. Note that this is slightly different from the original design which called for the structure to be `[1, hook, 5, [hook, hook]`, because in the process of implementing it, I realized that we wouldn't get passing the correct context if only some of the `multi` providers have `ngOnDestroy` and others don't.
I've run the newly-added `view_destroy_hooks` benchmark against these changes and compared it to master. The difference seems to be insignificant (between 1% and 2% slower).

This commit augments the `FactoryDef` declaration of Angular decorated
classes to contain information about the parameter decorators used in
the constructor. If no constructor is present, or none of the parameters
have any Angular decorators, then this will be represented using the
`null` type. Otherwise, a tuple type is used where the entry at index `i`
corresponds with parameter `i`. Each tuple entry can be one of two types:
1. If the associated parameter does not have any Angular decorators,
the tuple entry will be the `null` type.
2. Otherwise, a type literal is used that may declare at least one of
the following properties:
- "attribute": if `@Attribute` is present. The injected attribute's
name is used as string literal type, or the `unknown` type if the
attribute name is not a string literal.
- "self": if `@Self` is present, always of type `true`.
- "skipSelf": if `@SkipSelf` is present, always of type `true`.
- "host": if `@Host` is present, always of type `true`.
- "optional": if `@Optional` is present, always of type `true`.
A property is only present if the corresponding decorator is used.
Note that the `@Inject` decorator is currently not included, as it's
non-trivial to properly convert the token's value expression to a
type that is valid in a declaration file.
Additionally, the `ComponentDefWithMeta` declaration that is created for
Angular components has been extended to include all selectors on
`ng-content` elements within the component's template.
This additional metadata is useful for tooling such as the Angular
Language Service, as it provides the ability to offer suggestions for
directives/components defined in libraries. At the moment, such
tooling extracts the necessary information from the _metadata.json_
manifest file as generated by ngc, however this metadata representation
is being replaced by the information emitted into the declaration files.

`TNode.directives` was introduced in https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/34938. Turns out that it is unnecessary because the information is already present it `TData` when combining with `TNode.directiveStart` and `TNode.directiveEnd`

```

tData.slice(
tNode.directivesStart,
tNode.directivesEnd - tNode.DirectivesStart -1

This change changes the priority order of static styling.
Current priority:
```
(least priority)
- Static
- Component
- Directives
- Template
- Dynamic Binding
- Component
- Map/Interpolation
- Property
- Directives
- Map/Interpolation
- Property
- Template
- Map/Interpolation
- Property
(highest priority)
```
The issue with the above priority is this use case:
```
<div style="color: red;" directive-which-sets-color-blue>
```
In the above case the directive will win and the resulting color will be `blue`. However a small change of adding interpolation to the example like so. (Style interpolation is coming in https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/34202)
```
<div style="color: red; width: {{exp}}px" directive-which-sets-color-blue>
```
Changes the priority from static binding to interpolated binding which means now the resulting color is `red`. It is very surprising that adding an unrelated interpolation and style can change the `color` which was not changed. To fix that we need to make sure that the static values are associated with priority of the source (directive or template) where they were declared. The new resulting priority is:
```
(least priority)
- Component
- Static
- Map/Interpolation
- Property
- Directives
- Static
- Map/Interpolation
- Property
- Template
- Static
- Map/Interpolation
