When a view has the `Dirty` flag and is reattached, we should ensure that it is
reached and refreshed during the next change detection run from above.
In addition, when a view is created and attached, we should ensure that it is reached
and refreshed during change detection. This can happen if the view is
created and attached outside a change run or when it is created and
attached after its insertion view was already checked. In both cases, we
should ensure that the view is reached and refreshed during either the
current change detection or the next one (if change detection is not
already running).
We can achieve this by creating all views with the `Dirty` flag set.
However, this does happen to be a breaking change in some scenarios.
The one identified internally was actually depending on change detection
_not_ running immediately because it relied on an input value that was
set using `ngModel`. Because `ngModel` sets its value in a `Promise`, it
is not available until the _next_ change detection cycle. Ensuring
created views run in the current change change detection will result in
different behavior in this case.
Making option the default is the solution to #52928. That will have to
wait for a major version.

This change fixes and issue where the expectation was that change
detection always goes through `detectChangesInView`. In reality,
`detectChangesInternal` directly calls `refreshView`
and refreshes a view directly without checking if it was dirty (to my discontent).
This update changes the implementation of `detectChangesInternal` to
actually be "detect changes" not "force refresh of root view and detect
changes". In addition, it adds the refresh flag to APIs that were
previously calling `detectChangesInternal` so we get the same behavior
as before (host view is forced to refresh).
Note that the use of `RefreshView` instead of `Dirty` is _intentional_
here. The `RefreshView` flag is cleared before refreshing the view while
the `Dirty` flag is cleared at the very end. Using the `Dirty` flag
could have consequences because it is a more long-lasting change to the
view flags. Because `detectChangesInView` will immediately clear the
`RefreshView` flag, this change is much more limited and does not
result in a different set of flags during the view refresh.

Related to #52928 but `updateAncestorTraversalFlagsOnAttach` is called
on view insertion and _should_ have made that work for views dirty from
signals but it wasn't updated to read the `dirty` flag when we changed
it from sharing the `RefreshView` flag.
For #52928, we've traditionally worked under the assumption that this is working
as expected. The created view is `CheckAlways`. There is a question of whether we
should automatically mark things for check when the attached view has
the `Dirty` flag and/or has the `FirstLViewPass` flag set (or other
flags that indicate it definitely needs to be prefreshed).

Previously we had logic for a special case where a root injector in standalone apps would skip the import paths calculation step for the `getEnvironmentInjectorProviders` function.
This commit intends to fix this for two other cases, namely:
- When an injector is created by a route (via the `providers` field and lazy loading).
- When an injector is manually created and attached to the injector tree
It does this by assuming that any environment injector it cannot find a provider imports container for was created without one, and simply returns the raw provider records without the import paths calculation.

This change fixes a bug in the new list reconcilation algorithm
that could lead to an infinite loop in certain situations.
More specifically, it adjusts the internal MultiMap implementation
such that an entry returned from the .get call is the same entry
(for an identical key) removed by the .delete call.
The existing logic of the MultiMap was leading to a situation where
one view was requested and attached to LContainer, but a very different
view was removed from the MultiMap. This was leaving an attached LView
in a collection that was supposed to hold only detached views.

Producers represent values which can deliver change notifications.
When a producer value is changed, a change notification is propagated through the graph,
notifying live consumers which depend on the producer of the potential update.
Note here that this is a _potential_ update.
A producer may not have actually "changed" based on its equality function. With
this commit, before refreshing a view that is only marked for refresh
because its consumer is dirty, we poll producers for change to see if
they really have. If not, we can skip the refresh. The example test in this commit
shows that a `computed` which depends on a `signal` that is updated but
produces a value that is the same as before will _not_ cause the
component's template to refresh.

This commit updates the reactive consumer used for `LView`s to be shared
between a component and its embedded views. This allows us to use the
consumer flag directly for a dirty indicator rather than needing to
find a component view for updating its flags.
In the future, this will also allow us to effectively poll producers to see if
they really changed before refreshing a view.

The significance of the combination of #51854 and #52302 went mostly
unnoticed. The first removed a unidirectional data flow constraint for
transplanted views and the second updated the signal implementation to

that (mostly) removes `ExpressionChangedAfterItWasCheckedError` when signals are
used to drive application state to DOM synchronization.

When an effect is created in a component constructor, it might read signals
which are derived from component inputs. These signals may be unreliable or
(in the case of the proposed input signals) may throw if accessed before the
component is first change detected (which is what makes required inputs
available).
Depending on the scenario involved, the effect may or may not run before
this initialization takes place, which isn't a great developer experience.
In particular, effects created during CD (e.g. via control flow) work fine,
as do effects created in bootstrap thanks to the sync CD it performs. When
an effect is created through dynamic component creation outside of CD though
(such as on router navigations), it runs before the component is first CD'd,
causing the issue.
In fact, in the signal components RFC we described how effects would wait
until ngOnInit for their first execution for exactly this reason, but this
behavior was never implemented as it was thought our effect scheduling
design made it unnecessary. This is true of the regular execution of effects
but the above scenario shows that *creation* of the effect is still
vulnerable. Thus, this logic is needed.
This commit makes effects sensitive to their creation context, by injecting
`ChangeDetectorRef` optionally. An effect created with an injector that's
tied to a component will wait until that component is initialized before
initially being scheduled. TestBed effect flushing is also adjusted to
account for the additional interaction with change detection.

With the directive-based control flow users were able to conditionally project content using the `*` syntax. E.g. `<div *ngIf="expr" projectMe></div>` will be projected into `<ng-content select="[projectMe]"/>`, because the attributes and tag name from the `div` are copied to the template via the template creation instruction. With `@if` and `@for` that is not the case, because the conditional is placed *around* elements, rather than *on* them. The result is that content projection won't work in the same way if a user converts from `*ngIf` to `@if`.
These changes aim to cover the most common case by doing the same copying when a control flow node has *one and only one* root element or template node.
This approach comes with some caveats:
1. As soon as any other node is added to the root, the copying behavior won't work anymore. A diagnostic will be added to flag cases like this and to explain how to work around it.
2. If `preserveWhitespaces` is enabled, it's very likely that indentation will break this workaround, because it'll include an additional text node as the first child. We can work around it here, but in a discussion it was decided not to, because the user explicitly opted into preserving the whitespace and we would have to drop it from the generated code. The diagnostic mentioned point #1 will flag such cases to users.

This commit updates the reactive template and host binding consumers to
only mark their declaration components for refresh, but not parents/ancestors.
This also updates the `AfterViewChecked` hook to run when a component is
refreshed during change detection but its host is not. It is reasonable
to expect that the `ngAfterViewChecked` lifecycle hook will run when a
signal updates and the component is refreshed. The hooks are typically
run when the host is refreshed so without this change, the update to
not mark ancestors dirty would have caused `ngAfterViewChecked` to not
run.
resolves#14628resolves#22646resolves#34347 - this is not the direct request of the issue but
generally forcing change detection to run is necessary only because a
value was updated that needs to be synced to the DOM. Values that use
signals will mark the component for check automatically so accessing the
`ChangeDetectorRef` of a child is not necessary. The other part of this
request was to avoid the need to "mark all views for checking since
it wouldn't affect anything but itself". This is directly addressed by
this commit - updating a signal that's read in the view's template
will not cause ancestors/"all views" to be refreshed.
PR Close#52302
Issue #50320 shows that in some cases, updating a signal that's a dependency
of a template during change detection of that template can have several
adverse effects. This can happen, for example, if the signal is set during
the lifecycle hook of a directive within the same template that reads the
signal.
This can cause a few things to happen:
* Straightforwardly, it can cause `ExpressionChanged` errors.
* Surprisingly, it can cause an assertion within the `ReactiveLViewConsumer`
to fail.
* Very surprisingly, it can cause change detection for an `OnPush` component
to stop working.
The root cause of these later behaviors is subtle, and is ultimately a
desync between the reactive graph and the view tree's notion of "dirty" for
a given view. This will be fixed with further work planned for change
detection to handle such updates directly. Until then, this commit improves
the DX through two changes:
1. The mechanism of "committing" `ReactiveLViewConsumer`s to a view is
changed to use the `consumerOnSignalRead` hook from the reactive graph.
This prevents the situation which required the assertion in the first
place.
2. A `console.warn` warning is added when a view is marked dirty via a
signal while it's still executing.
The warning informs users that they're pushing data against the direction of
change detection, risking `ExpressionChanged` or other issues. It's a
warning and not an error because the check is overly broad and captures
situations where the application would not actually break as a result, such
as if a `computed` marked the template dirty but still returned the same
value.

Using `afterRender` schedules long-living lifecycle hooks. Scheduling
such hooks inside reactive contexts could mean that many of the
same hooks would be scheduled, quickly piling up every time a
consumed signal changes. This is likely unintended and could degrade
application performance or result in unexpected behavior.
Additionally, scheduling `afterRender` inside a `computed` is considered
a side effect. Computed expressions are expected to be pure/ i.e. free
of side effects. We can avoid this caveat by detecting the reactive
context in development.
