This adds the new block syntax to dgeni docs pipeline, mainly copying
the way that elements (`<ng-content>` etc.) work. Actual doc content is
just a placeholder for this PR.

The `mergeOverridenImplementation` processor tries to ensure that any
doc used with the `@overrideImplementation` annotation is not itself
public (and explicitly marks is as internal if it is).
Previously, it determined the public/private status of a doc by only
checking the value of the doc's `internal` property (which is mainly set
via the `@internal` annotation). This failed to account for docs marked
as "private exports" (such as those prefixed with `ɵ`), which are
essentially also treated as internal.
This would result in incorrect warnings. [Example warning][1]:
> Constructor doc forms/ɵFormControlCtor was not marked '@internal';
> adding this annotation.
This commit prevents the incorrect warning by also checking the value of
the doc's `privateExport` property to determine its public/private
status.

Previously, error messages related to an overriden constructor doc would
stringify the doc as `[object Object]`, which is not helpful for
debugging the issue. For example:
> Constructor doc [object Object] was not marked '@internal'
This commit improves the error message by including the doc's ID
instead. For example, the above error message would become:
> Constructor doc forms/ɵFormControlCtor was not marked '@internal'

This commit updates docs extraction logic to avoid requiring the `@ngModule` tag on standalone types, since they don't have to be present in any NgModule.

This implementation change was originally proposed as part of Typed Forms, and will have major consequences for that project as described in the design doc. Submitting it separately will greatly simplify the risk of landing Typed Forms. This change should have no visible impact on normal users of FormControl.

This new processor, named `mergeOverriddenImplementation`, allows Dgeni to produce correct documentation for symbols with overridden exported constructors. For example, in the following example, the implementation documentation will be used, including the constructor signature:
```
export const Foo: FooCtor = FooImpl as FooCtor;
```
This is a major improvement over the current situation, in which no constructor signature is documented whatsoever.

In the API docs, concrete classes do not list the "implementation" overload on a method, since this is not strictly part of its API.
We recently fixed the rendering of interfaces to display all the overloads, since there is no "implementation" overload.
This commit also fixes the rendering of "pseudo-classes", which are a combination of an interface
and a constant.

In #41788, the `disambiguateDocsPathsProcessor` was introduced to fix
an issue with case-insensitively equal paths. This processor may alter
the output paths of some docs. Due to its nature, the
`disambiguateDocPathsProcessor` must be the last processor in the
pipeline that updates a doc's output path. However, the
`updateGlobalApiPathProcess` (which also alters the output paths of some
docs) was not configured to run before `disambiguateDocPathsProcessor`.
As a result, the changes made by `disambiguateDocPathsProcessor` were
overridden by `updateGlobalApiPathProcess`, resulting in the app's
failing to load such global API docs pages. An example of such an API
page is: https://angular.io/api/core/global/ngApplyChanges
This commit fixes it by ensuring that the `updateGlobalApiPathProcess`
is explicitly run before the `disambiguateDocPathsProcessor`, so that
the former does not override the changes made by the latter.

Such injectables were not appearing in the providers lists of their NgModule.
This commit updates the doc-gen to support associating these automatically.
Further, it also allows developers to mark other injectables that are provided
in an NgModule with a reference to the NgModule where they are provided.

processor code, to make it easier to maintain.

Previously, if an entry-point had no public exports (such as the
`@angular/platform-server/shims` introduced in #40559, which is a
side-effect-ful entry-point), it was incorrectly marked as having all
its exports deprecated (which marks the entry-point as deprecated as
well).
This commit fixes this by ensuring that an entry-point is not marked as
having all its exports deprecated if it has no public exports.

In the code base there are cases where there is, conceptually, a class
that is represented by a combination of an `interface`
(type declaration) and a `const` (value declaration).
For example:
```
export interface SomeClass {
count(a?: string): number;
}
export const: SomeClass = class {
someMethod(a: string = ''): number { ... }
};
```
These were being rendered as interfaces and also not
correctly showing the descriptions and default parameter
values.
In this commit such concepts are now rendered as classes.
The classes that are affected by this are:
* `DebugElement`
* `DebugNode`
* `Type`
* `EventEmitter`
* `TestBed`
Note that while decorators are also defined in this form
they have their own rendering type (`decorator`) and so
are not affecte by this.

Adds the ability to expose global symbols in the API docs via the `@globalApi` tag. Also supports optionally setting a namespace which will be added to the name automatically (e.g. `foo` will be renamed to `ng.foo`). Relevant APIs should also be exported through the `global.ts` file which will show up under `core/global`.

`ng*Def` properties (such as `ngInjectorDef`) are not considered part of
the public API and should not appear in the API docs. This commit adds a
filter to remove these properties from the docs metadata.
PR Close#31378
Now, one can add an `@alias` tag to API docs, which tells dgeni that this
API element (usually a `const`) is really just an alias for some API element
defined elsewhere.
Dgeni will then look up this API element and copy over the properties from
the alias to the current doc.
For example, we would like to privately export an Enum from `@angular/core`
but then publicly export this from `@angular/common`:
**packages/core/private_exports.ts**
```ts
/**
* Description of this document.
*/
export enum ɵSomeEnum { ... }
```
**packages/common/public_api.ts**
```ts
import {ɵSomeEnum} from '@angular/core';
/**
* @alias core/ɵSomeEnum
*/
export const SomeEnum = ɵSomeEnum;
```
In the generated docs there will be a page for `common/SomeEnum`, which
will be rendered as an enum, rather than a const, showing the description
extracted from the `core/ɵSomeEnum`.
---
The implementation of this feature required some refactoring of the other
processing:
1. Previously `ɵ` prefixed exports were not even considered.
2. Due to 1. some processors needed to have guards added to ignore such
private exports (`addMetadataAliases` and `checkContentRules`).
3. The processing of package pages had to be reworked (and split) so that
it picked up the aliased export docs after their alias proeprties had
been copied.

This commit includes the following changes:
* CLI version information is read from the CLI package from which
we read the help files.
* CLI API pages now contain GH links
* line numbers are not shown in GH links, if the doc does not
have a truthy `startingLine` value. This allows us to remove
hard coded checks for `guide` pages
* content pages and CLI api docs no longer have a `startingLine`
* the hard-coded `packages` path segment has been removed from
the templates; instead we now only use the `realProjectRelativePath`.
* the `realProjectRelativePath` has been updated accordingly for API
and CLI API docs.

All directives and pipes must now be tagged with one ore more
public NgModule, from which they are exported.
If an item is exported transitively via a re-exported internal NgModule
then it may be that the item appears to be exported from more than
one public NgModule. For example, there are shared directives that
are exported in this way from `FormsModule` and `ReactiveFormsModule`.
The doc-gen will error and fail if a directive or pipe is not tagged correctly.
NgModule pages now list all the directives and pipes that are exported from it.
Directive and Pipe pages now list any NgModule from which they are exported.
Packages also now list any NgModules that are contained - previously they were
missed.
PR Close#25734
Classes that are injectable often have constructors that should not be
called by the application developer. It is the responsibility of the
injector to instantiate the class and the constructor often contains
private implementation details that may need to change.
This commit removes constructors from the docs for API items that are
both:
a) Marked with an injectable decorator (e.g. Injectable, Directive,
Component, Pipe), and
b) Have no constructor description
This second rule allows the developer to override the removal if there
is something useful to say about the constructor.
Note that "normal" classes such as `angimations/HttpHeaders` do not have
their constructor removed, despite (at this time) having no description.
