Add the `strictStandalone` flag to `angularCompilerOptions`. When set to
true, the compiler will require that all declarations of components,
directive, and pipes be standalone. When `standalone: false` is provided,
an error is raised.
Note that until the default value of the standalone flag is flipped, this
does not catch the case where a declaration does not specify a value for
`standalone`.
The default value of the `strictStandalone` flag is `false`.

An initializer API like `input`, `output`, or signal queries may not be
compatible with certain access levels. E.g. queries cannot work with ES
private class fields.
This commit introduces a check for access levels into the initializer
API recognition— enforcing that every initializer API *clearly*
specifies what type of access is allowed.

`TemplateDefinitionBuilder` is the legacy template compiler, and was replaced by Template Pipeline as the default in v17.3.
This PR attempts to delete `TemplateDefinitionBuilder`, `ExpressionConverter`, and various helpers (i18n context, style builder, property visitors, etc).

This commit includes a skeleton of how the tool `LocalCompilationExtraImportsTracker` is used in the overall compilation workflow end-to-end.
First of all, a new option `generateExtraImportsInLocalMode` is added, whose presence will make `LocalCompilationExtraImportsTracker` part of the compilation process. When this option is set an instance of `LocalCompilationExtraImportsTracker` is created within the NgCompiler. Then it is passed to the Ivy transformer and plumbed all the way down and the extra imports registered in it are added to the `ImportManager` instances before the imports are added from `ImportManager` to the generated file. This required adding a new method `generateSideEffectImport` to the `ImportManager`, which is an empty method and will be implemented in the subsequent commits.
This commit expected to make no change in the compilation behavior as the methods are not implemented yet.

The Template Pipeline is a brand new backend for the Angular compiler, replacing `TemplateDefinitionBuilder`. It generates the Ivy instructions corresponding to an input template (or host binding). The Template Pipeline has an all-new design based on an intermediate representation compiled over many phases, which will allow us to experiment with compiler changes more easily in the future.
With this commit, the template pipeline can now be enabled in any project via the `useTemplatePipeline` TSConfig option. However, it is still disabled by default.

This commit introduces three additional diagnostics for queries:
- If a query (either using decorator or signal-based) is declared on a
static class member, a diagnostic is raised.
- If a signal-based query is mixed with a query decorator, a diagnostic
is raised. Similar to signal inputs.
- If a singal-based query is also declared in the directive/component
class decorator metadata, a diagnostic is raised.

Orphan component is an anti-pattern in Angular where a component is rendered while the NgModule declaring it is not installed. It is not easy to capture this scenario, specially in compile time. But it is possible to capture a special case in runtime where the component is being rendered without its NgModule even loaded into the browser. This change adds a flag in cli compiler option to enable such checking, and throwing a runtime exception if it happens. Note that such check is only done in dev mode.
Currently the check requires some generated code that is behind ngJitMode flag (i.e., call to ɵɵsetNgModuleScope), and the new flag can be set only if JIT mode is enabled (i.e., supportJitMode=true) otherwise an error will be thrown.
The orphan component is a main blocker for rolling out local compilation in g3. This option is needed for identifying and isolating such cases.

In local compilation mode it is not possible to use an imported string for component's template or styles as it cannot be resolved statically in compile time. There are some such use cases in g3 and potentially devs might incorporate such pattern. At the moment such pattern will cause the local compilation fail with generic error messages (e.g., so and so at position 1 is not a reference, etc). This change makes specific error messages with helpful hints for such cases. These new error messages can help devs to quickly resolve the issue as well as make it possible to identify existing issues in g3.

Adds the necessary compiler changes to support input transform functions. The compiler output has changed in the following ways:
### Directive handler
The directive handler now extracts a reference to the input transform function and it resolves the type of its first parameter. It also asserts that the type can be referenced in the compiled output and that it doesn't clash with any pre-existing `ngAcceptInputType_` members.
### .d.ts
In the generated declaration files the compiler now inserts an `ngAcceptInputType_` member for each input with a `transform` function. The member's type corresponds to the type of the first parameter of the function, e.g.
```typescript
// foo.directive.ts
@Directive()
export class Foo {
@Input({transform: (incomingValue: string) => parseInt(incomingValue)}) value: number;
}
// foo.directive.d.ts
export class Foo {
value: number;
static ngAcceptInputType_value: string;
}
```
### Type check block
If an input has `transform` function, the TCB will use the type of its first parameter for the setter type. This uses the same infrastructure as the `ngAcceptInputType_` members.
### Directive declaration
The generated runtime directive declaration call now includes the `transform` function in the `inputs` map, if the input is being transformed. The function will be picked up by the runtime in the next commit to do the actual transformation.
```typescript
// foo.directive.ts
@Directive()
export class Foo {
@Input({transform: (incomingValue: string) => parseInt(incomingValue)}) value: number;
}
// foo.directive.js
export class Foo {
ɵdir = ɵɵdefineDirective({
inputs: {
value: ['value', 'value', incomingValue => parseInt(incomingValue)]
}
});
}
```

Adds support for marking a directive input as required. During template type checking, the compiler will verify that all required inputs have been specified and will raise a diagnostic if one or more are missing. Some specifics:
* Inputs are marked as required by passing an object literal with a `required: true` property to the `Input` decorator or into the `inputs` array.
* Required inputs imply that the directive can't work without them. This is why there's a new check that enforces that all required inputs of a host directive are exposed on the host.
* Required input diagnostics are reported through the `OutOfBandDiagnosticRecorder`, rather than generating a new structure in the TCB, because it allows us to provide a better error message.
* Currently required inputs are only supported during AOT compilation, because knowing which bindings are present during JIT can be tricky and may lead to increased bundle sizes.

In AOT compilations, the `strictInjectionParameters` compiler option can
be enabled to report errors when an `@Injectable` annotated class has a
constructor with parameters that do not provide an injection token, e.g.
only a primitive type or interface.
Since Ivy it's become required that any class with Angular behavior
(e.g. the `ngOnDestroy` lifecycle hook) is decorated using an Angular
decorator, which meant that `@Injectable()` may need to have been added
to abstract base classes. Doing so would then report an error if
`strictInjectionParameters` is enabled, if the abstract class has an
incompatible constructor for DI purposes. This may be fine though, as
a subclass may call the constructor explicitly without relying on
Angular's DI mechanism.
Therefore, this commit excludes abstract classes from the
`strictInjectionParameters` check. This avoids an error from being
reported at compile time. If the constructor ends up being used by
Angular's DI system at runtime, then the factory function of the
abstract class will throw an error by means of the `ɵɵinvalidFactory`
instruction.
In addition to the runtime error, this commit also analyzes the inheritance
chain of an injectable without a constructor to verify that their inherited
constructor is valid.
BREAKING CHANGE: Invalid constructors for DI may now report compilation errors
When a class inherits its constructor from a base class, the compiler may now
report an error when that constructor cannot be used for DI purposes. This may
either be because the base class is missing an Angular decorator such as
`@Injectable()` or `@Directive()`, or because the constructor contains parameters
which do not have an associated token (such as primitive types like `string`).
These situations used to behave unexpectedly at runtime, where the class may be
constructed without any of its constructor parameters, so this is now reported
as an error during compilation.
Any new errors that may be reported because of this change can be resolved either
by decorating the base class from which the constructor is inherited, or by adding
an explicit constructor to the class for which the error is reported.
