The private util `isObservable` was actually just testing the same thing as`isSubscribable()`. As the implementation is closer to the function's name, let's only keep ``isSubscribable`.

BREAKING CHANGE: Node.js v14 support has been removed
Node.js v14 is planned to be End-of-Life on 2023-04-30. Angular will stop supporting Node.js v14 in Angular v16. Angular v16 will continue to officially support Node.js versions v16 and v18.

`setDisabledState` is supposed to be called whenever the disabled state of a control changes, including upon control creation. However, a longstanding bug caused the method to not fire when an *enabled* control was attached. This bug was fixed in v15.
This had a side effect: previously, it was possible to instantiate a reactive form control with `[attr.disabled]=true`, even though the the corresponding control was enabled in the model. (Note that the similar-looking property binding version `[disabled]=true` was always rejected, though.) This resulted in a mismatch between the model and the DOM. Now, because `setDisabledState` is always called, the value in the DOM will be immediately overwritten with the "correct" enabled value.
Users should instead disable the control directly in their model. (There are many ways to do this, such as using the `{value: 'foo', disabled: true}` constructor format, or immediately calling `FooControl.disable()` in `ngOnInit`.)
If this incompatibility is too breaking, you may also opt out using `FormsModule.withConfig` or `ReactiveFormsModule.withConfig` at the time you import it, via the `callSetDisabledState` option.
However, there is an exceptional case: radio buttons. Because Reactive Forms models the entire group of radio buttons as a single `FormControl`, there is no way to control the disabled state for individual radios, so they can no longer be configured as disabled.
In this PR, we have special cased radio buttons to ignore their first call to `setDisabledState` when in `callSetDisabledState: 'always'` mode. This preserves the old behavior.

Jasmine has deprecated the `expectationFailOutput` argument and replaced it by the `withContext()` method
Also removing all references to #24571 from the forms unit tests as the non null assertions are fine in the context.

Tests now always run with ESM 2020, while previously they ran with
ES2015 CommonJS UMD bundles.
Since ZoneJS does not support intercepting native `async/await` syntax,
the forms test needs to use the zone-compatible variant of
`jasmine_node_tests`. This variant downlevels the native `async/await`
syntax to generators that ZoneJS can intercept. All of this is done
using the dev-infra ESBuild `spec_bundle` rule.

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).
PR Close#48521
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.

refactor(forms): make FormBuilder classes provided in root
This commit updates the FormBuilder classes to provide them in root

This commit exports existing utility functions to check for control instances:
isFormControl, isFormGroup, isFormRecord, isFormArray
Those are useful when implementing validators that use the specifics of one of those control types.
To narrow down the type to what it actually is, we can now use the util functions in validators:
```
export const myArrayValidator: ValidatorFn = (control) => {
if (!isFormArray(control)) { return null; }
// now you can use FormArray-specific members, e.g.:
if (control.controls.every(c => !!c.value) {
return { myerror: true }
} else { return null; }
}
```

Updated methods' description verbs. They are sometimes used with the assumption of the 'it' pronoun and sometimes not. For instance, the verb 'to construct' is used with 's' in one method description and not others. It is the case for other verbs as well. This is also remarkable in the description of the built-in methods of FormArray.

The forms `submit` event handlers have a `return false` to prevent form submissions from reloading the page, however this also prevents the browser behavior for forms with `method="dialog"`.
These changes add an exception since the `method="dialog"` doesn't refresh the page.
Fixes#47150.

Type inference in cases involving `ControlConfig` was previously not working as desired. This was because the compiler was enforcing that `ControlConfig` is a *tuple* -- which is not always that easy to prove! By relaxing this constraint a bit, and just inferring from `ControlConfig` as an array, the type inference catches many more cases, and is generally more correct.

Replace `new Error()` in a forms Validators function with `RuntimeError`, for better tree-shakability. Also, improve the error messages, and add documentation.
PR Close#46537
Consider the case in which `FormBuilder` is used to construct a group with an optional field:
```
const controls = { name: fb.control('') };
const foo: FormGroup<{
name: FormControl<string | null>;
address?: FormControl<string | null>;
}> = fb.group<{
name: FormControl<string | null>;
address?: FormControl<string | null>;
}>(controls);
```
Today, with fully strict TypeScript settings, the above will not compile:
```
Types of property 'controls' are incompatible.
Type '{ name: FormControl<string | null>; address?: FormControl<FormGroup<SubFormControls> | null | undefined> | undefined; }' is not assignable to type '{ name: FormControl<string | null>; address?: FormGroup<SubFormControls> | undefined; }'.
```
Notice that the `fb.group(...)` is calculating the following type for address: `address?: FormControl<FormGroup<string|null>`. This is clearly wrong -- an extraneous `FormControl` has been added!
This is coming from the calculation of the result type of `fb.group(...)`. In the type definition, if we cannot detect the outer control type, [we assume it's just an unwrapped value, and automatically wrap it in `FormControl`](https://github.com/angular/angular/blob/14.0.0/packages/forms/src/form_builder.ts#L66).
Because the optional `{address?: FormControl<string|null>}` implicitly makes the RHS have type `FormControl<string|null>|undefined`, [the relevant condition is not satisfied](https://github.com/angular/angular/blob/14.0.0/packages/forms/src/form_builder.ts#L55). In particular, the condition expects just `FormGroup<T>`, not `FormGroup<T>|undefined`. So we assume `T` is a value type, and it gets wrapped with `FormControl`.
The solution is to add the cases where `undefined` is included in the union type when detecting which control `T` is (if any).

It is currently unclear which directive to use for FormRecord. This commit amends the docs to explicitly state that the group directives can and should be used with records.
PR Close#46235
DEPRECATED:
It is now deprecated to provide *both* `AbstractControlOption`s and an async validators argument to a FormControl. Previously, the async validators would just be silently dropped, resulting in a probably buggy forms. Now, the constructor call is deprecated, and Angular will print a warning in devmode.
DEPRECATED:
The `initialValueIsDefault` option has been deprecated and replaced with the otherwise-identical `nonNullable` option, for the sake of naming consistency.
In some places, the [@see][1] JSDoc tag was incorrectly used instead of
the [@link][2] inline tag, leading to warnings during doc generation and
the `@see` tags being ignored (and thus shown in the docs as is).
Replace the `@see` tags with the intended `@link` tags.
