This commit narrows down acceptable argument types of the
`importProvidersFrom` function. More specifically, it rejects
standalone components as a source of imports.

This commit updates an internal logic of the TestBed to recognize Standalone Components to be able to apply the necessary overrides correctly.

`importProvidersFrom` provides a bridge from the world of NgModule-based DI
configuration to the new, "standalone" world of direct providers and
environment injectors. Early user feedback suggested some confusion around
where this function was supposed to be used, particularly around importing
NgModule-based providers into standalone component `providers` arrays, which
is not the intended use. This confusion is exacerbated by the fact that due
to the unified `Provider` type, this kind of misconfiguration was happily
accepted by the type system.
This commit changes the return type of `importProvidersFrom` to wrap the
returned providers in an opaque type that prevents them from being used in
component provider contexts. This, together with stronger documentation
around the purpose and functionality of `importProvidersFrom`, should
address some of the above confusion.

This commit updates the logic to detect a situation when a standalone component is used in the NgModule-based bootstrap (`@NgModule.bootstrap`). Both AOT and JIT compilers are updated to handle this situation.

Allows to provide a TestBed option to throw on unknown elements in templates:
```ts
getTestBed().initTestEnvironment(
BrowserDynamicTestingModule,
platformBrowserDynamicTesting(), {
errorOnUnknownElements: true

```
The default value of `errorOnUnknownElements` is `false`, so this is not a breaking change.

Adds support for TypeScript 4.7. Changes include:
* Bumping the TS version as well as some Bazel dependencies to include https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_nodejs/pull/3420.
* Adding a backwards-compatibility layer for calls to `updateTypeParameterDeclaration`.
* Making `LView` generic in order to make it easier to type the context based on the usage. Currently the context can be 4 different types which coupled with stricter type checking would required a lot of extra casting all over `core`.
* Fixing a bunch of miscellaneous type errors.
* Removing assertions of `ReferenceEntry.isDefinition` in a few of the language service tests. The field isn't returned by TS anymore and we weren't using it for anything.
* Resolving in error in the language service that was caused by TS attempting to parse HTML files when we try to open them. Previous TS was silently setting them as `ScriptKind.Unknown` and ignoring the errors, but now it throws. I've worked around it by setting them as `ScriptKind.JSX`.

This commits adds verifications assuring that items imported into
standalone components are one of:

It explicitly disallows modules with providers.
PR Close#45777
There were two problems with the `importProvidersFrom` function related to
`ModuleWithProviders` values:
* The public type did not accept `ModuleWithProviders` values directly.
* The implementation of `walkProviderTree` delegates collection of MWP providers
to its caller, in order for the ordering of such providers to be correct.
However, `importProvidersFrom` was not performing that collection, causing MWP
providers passed in at the top level to be dropped.

This commit moves the ModuleWithProviders type from `metadata` to `di`, avoiding

This commit moves standalone component scoping into the closures for
`directiveDefs` and `pipeDefs` in JIT mode. This is necessary to support
recursive standalone components, which necessarily use a `forwardRef` within
their import cycle. Previously, the JIT compiler for standalone components
attempted immediate `forwardRef` resolution, resulting in infinite recursion.

Similarly to the symmetry being strengthened between children and loadChildren,
a new loadComponent property will be introduced as the asynchronous version of component.
This will allow for direct single-component lazy loading:
```
{path: 'lazy/a', loadComponent:
() => import('./lazy/a.component').then(m => m.ACmp)},
{path: 'lazy/b', loadComponent:
() => import('./lazy/b.component').then(m => m.BCmp)},
```
This option requires that the component being loaded is standalone and
is implemented as a runtime check.
Other notes:
* Components are not loaded until all guards and resolvers complete.
* Loading the component is included in the function passed to the router
preloading strategy
* `RouteConfigLoadStart` and `RouteConfigLoadEnd` events emit at the
start and end of the component loading
* `CanLoad` guards _do not_ apply to `loadComponent`. `canActivate`
should be used instead, just like you would do if it were simply
`component` instead.
PR Close#45705
This commit expands the `LoadChildrenCallback` to accept returning `Routes`
in addition to the existing `NgModule` type. In addition, it adds a
check to ensure these loaded routes all use standalone components.
The components must be standalone because if they were not,
we would not have the required `NgModule` which the component is declared in.
Existing API:
```
{path: 'lazy/route', loadChildren: import('./lazy').then(m => m.LazyModule)}
@NgModule({
imports: [
ExtraCmpModule,
RouterModule.forChild([
{path: 'extra/route', component: ExtraCmp},
]),
],
})
export class LazyModule {}
```
The new API for lazy loading route configs with standalone components
(no NgModule) is to expand `loadChildren` to allow returning simply a `Routes` array.
```
// parent.ts
{
path: 'parent',
loadChildren: () => import('./children').then(m => m.ROUTES),
}
// children.ts
export const ROUTES: Route[] = [
{path: 'child', component: ChildCmp},
];
```
Note that this includes minimal documentation updates. We need to
include a holistic update to the documentation for standalone components
in the future that includes this feature.

The localize primary entry-point (used at runtime in application code)
indirectly loads from the compiler package for computing message ids.
The compiler package has a couple of constants which cannot be DCE-ded/
tree-shaken due to side-effect reliance that is detected by Terser.
We fix these constants to be three-shakable. Note that another issue
technically would be that the compiler package has a side-effect call
for `publishFacade` (for JIT), but that invocation is marked as pure by
the Angular CLI babel optimization pipeline. So this results is no
unused code currently but is risky and should be addressed in the future.

Speeds up the dev-turnaround by only bundling types when packaging. Currently
bundling occurs for all the `ng_module` targets in devmode.
This has various positive benefits:
* Avoidance of this rather slower operation in development
* Makes APF-built packages also handle types for `ts_library` targets consistently.
* Allows us to ensure APF entry-points have `d.ts` _always_ bundled (working with ESM
module resolution in TypeScript -- currently experimental)
* Allows us to remove the secondary `package.json` files from APF (maybe APF v14? - seems
low-impact). This would clean-up the APF even more and fix resolution issues (like in Vite)

This commit refactors `importProvidersFrom` to support pulling providers
from the dependencies of a standalone component, in addition to NgModules.
Tests will be added in a future commit when standalone components can be
created without calling private APIs.
PR Close#45687
This commit exposes the `standalone` flag on `@Directive`, `@Component`, and
`@Pipe`, effectively making standalone components a part of Angular's public
API. As part of this operation, it also implements JIT compilation for
standalone types.
Standalone types are Angular-decorated types which act as their own
"declarations", where they would otherwise be declared in an NgModule.
Marking an Angular type as standalone means that it can be used directly in
other standalone components and in NgModules, without needing an associated
NgModule to depend on it. In the case of a standalone component, template
dependencies which would otherwise be specified by an NgModule are instead
specified directly on the component itself, via the `imports` field. Other
standalone types can be imported, as well as NgModules.
PR Close#45687
This commit extracts the `importProvidersFrom` function and associated
machinery into a separate file, as opposed to being colocated with
`R3Injector`. Separating these functions will mitigate potential future
circular dependencies as `importProvidersFrom` starts being used in
different parts of the codebase.
PR Close#45687
Currently, the only way to specify new providers for a `Route` and the
children is to create a new `NgModule` with those providers and use the
`loadChildren` feature. This is pretty confusing and a wholly indirect
way of accomplishing this task. With this commit, developers will be
able to specify a list of providers directly on the `Route` itself.
These providers will apply the that route and its children.
This feature was inspired by the upcoming standalone components feature.
This ties in there because, as mentioned before, the prior art for lazy
loading configs was to load an `NgModule`. This loaded module contained
new route configs _and_ could specify new providers. Separating those
two concepts, there should be a way to load _just_ some new routes, but
there should also be a way to specify new providers as well (something
you could do in the `NgModule` world and now will be able to do in the
world without any `NgModule` through this feature).

This commit expands on the unified dependency tracking in the previous
commit and adds tracking of NgModule dependencies. These are not used for

Previously, the compiler would represent template dependencies of a
component in its component definition through separate fields (`directives`,
`pipes`).
This commit refactors the compiler/runtime interface to use a single field
(`dependencies`). The runtime component definition object still has separate
`directiveDefs` and `pipeDefs`, which are calculated from the `dependencies`
when the definition is evaluated.
This change is also reflected in partially compiled declarations. To ensure
compatibility with partially compiled code already on NPM, the linker
will still honor the old form of declaration (with separate fields).

This wasn't exactly possible before because the `RouterConfigLoader` was
not an Injectable so there wasn't a straightforward way to share
information between `ApplyRedirects` and the preloader. They each had
their own implementation so they needed to store the values on the
`Route` so they both had access to them. I imagine this was the case
because trying to inject `Router` (to get access to the events) into the
preloader would have caused a circular dependency.
This refactor co-locates the loading details with the loader itself
rather than leaking implementation into the public route config and
mutating the object in an awkward way. This also promotes
`RouterConfigLoader` to a proper `Injectable` so data can be shared
throughout the system.

This commit implements the `destroy` method on the `ApplicationRef` class. This feature is a preparation for the new logic to bootstrap (and teardown) standalone components (without going through the `NgModuleRef` destroy), which would return an instance of the `ApplicationRef` (the current bootstrap APIs return an instance of the `NgModuleRef`).
PR Close#45624
In the standalone world, these concepts will no longer be one and the
same. You can load routes without them being inside an `NgModule` with
`RouterModule.forChild`. In addition, routes will be able to define
their own providers, which will be included in an injector that is not
necessarily lazy loaded.

This commit adds a new internal scope to `R3Injector` for
`EnvironmentInjector`s specifically. This will allow us to scope services to
the environment side of the injector hierarchy specifically, as opposed to
the `'any'` scope which also includes view-side injectors created via
`Injector.create`. For now, this functionality is not exposed publicly, but
is available to use within `@angular/core` only.
PR Close#45626
This commit exposes a new `EnvironmentInjector` abstraction, which
generalizes the "module injector" concept to injectors that are not based on
NgModules.
An EnvironmentInjector is a conceptual analogue of an `NgModuleRef` - it
represents an injector on the former "module" DI hierarchy in Angular (now
renamed to the "environment injector hierarchy"). Environment injectors are
created via the `createEnvironmentInjector` function from a list of
`Provider`s.
For backwards compatibility with current code using `NgModuleRef`,
`EnvironmentInjector`s are wrapped by an adapter `NgModuleRef`
implementation, so injecting `NgModuleRef` always returns the latest
`EnvironmentInjector`, even if that injector was not based on an NgModule.
Conversely, NgModule-based `NgModuleRef`s created via `createNgModuleRef`
are _also_ `EnvironmentInjector`s.
