RxJS 7 versions prior to 7.4.0 export ES5 code, whereas Angular
applications using RxJS 6 today use ES2015. This was fixed in RxJS 7.4.0
which exposes ES2015 entrypoints as well. This commit updates Angular's
peer dependencies to require the newer RxJS.

Adds support for TypeScript 4.4. High-level overview of the changes made in this PR:
* Bumps the various packages to `typescript@4.4.2` and `tslib@2.3.0`.
* The `useUnknownInCatchVariables` compiler option has been disabled so that we don't have to cast error objects explicitly everywhere.
* TS now passes in a third argument to the `__spreadArray` call inside child class constructors. I had to update a couple of places in the runtime and ngcc to be able to pick up the calls correctly.
* TS now generates code like `(0, foo)(arg1, arg2)` for imported function calls. I had to update a few of our tests to account for it. See https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/pull/44624.
* Our `ngtsc` test setup calls the private `matchFiles` function from TS. I had to update our usage, because a new parameter was added.
* There was one place where we were setting the readonly `hasTrailingComma` property. I updated the usage to pass in the value when constructing the object instead.
* Some browser types were updated which meant that I had to resolve some trivial type errors.
* The downlevel decorators tranform was running into an issue where the Closure synthetic comments were being emitted twice. I've worked around it by recreating the class declaration node instead of cloning it.

We can't update the framework to rxjs7 until version 13, because it contains breaking changes, but we can allow users to opt into it since all of our code should be compatible.
These changes expand the allowed version range of rxjs and add an integration test to verify that we don't get compilation errors. Note that we also have a test that runs the AIO examples against rxjs 7 already (#42660).
Fixes#41897.

Switches the repository to TypeScript 4.3 and the latest
version of tslib. This involves updating the peer dependency
ranges on `typescript` for the compiler CLI and for the Bazel
package. Tests for new TypeScript features have been added to
ensure compatibility with Angular's ngtsc compiler.

In some cases, we want to test the AIO app or docs examples against the locally built `angular-in-memory-web-api` for example to ensure that the changes in a commit do not introduce a breaking changes.
