Similarly to the previous change to the expression AST, these changes replace the `WriteVarExpr`, `WriteKeyExpr` and `WritePropExpr` from the output AST with a binary expression. This is closer aligned to TypeScript and makes it easier to translate code between the two.

This commit migrates the remaining pieces of `compiler-cli` to
`ts_project`. This involves a few more things during migration:
- the `ng_module` ngc_wrapped rule broke as part of this change, so we
switched it to `ts_project` too. This logic is soon gone anyway.
- we needed an extra pnpm "package.json" for the linker babel test. This test is
loading from the real compiler-cli npm package. Babel needs a real
node module for this, so this solution seems reasonable. It may be
worth exploring in the future to move this test into an integration
test though.
- the older integrationtest in compiler-cli is removed as the coverage
is much better with the compliance test suite and this test.

`ImportGenerator` is the abstraction used by the translator functions to
insert imports for `ExternalExpr` in an AST-agnostic way.
This was built specifically for the linker which does not use any of the
complex import managers- but rather re-uses `ngImport` or uses
`ngImport.Bla`.
This commit also switches the linker AST-agnostic generator to follow
the new signatures. This was rather trivial.

Since we generate a `.mjs` file as entry-point for jasmine tests,
a couple of issues prevented the transitive dependencies from
bootstrap targets to be brought in (causing resolution errors):
1. The `_files` (previously `_esm2015`) targets are no longer needed,
and they also miss all the information on runfiles.
2. The aspect for computing linker mappings does not respect the
`bootstrap` attribute from the `spec_entrypoint` so we manually
add the extract ESM output targets (this rule works with the aspect
and forwards linker mappings).
PR Close#48521
For every `ts_library` target we expose a shorthand that grants
access to the JS files because `DefaultInfo` of a ts library
only exposes the `.d.ts` files.
We rename this away from `es2015` since in practice it's a much
higher target these days. Additionally we no longer use the devmode
output but rather use the prodmode output which has the explicit
`.mjs` output- compatible with ESM.

When `@angular/compiler` processes metadata and compiles a definition field,
it might also choose to return statements that are associated with that
definition, and should be included after the type being compiled. Currently,
the linker ignores these statements, as there are none generated that are
relevant in the linking operation.
A challenge to supporting such associated statements is that the linker
operates on "declare" expressions, and replaces those expressions with other
expressions. It does not have the capability to append statements after the
whole type. The linker actually faces this challenge with statements from
the `ConstantPool` as well, and solves this problem by generating an IIFE
expression that executes the statements and then returns the definition
expression.
Previously, an `EmitScope` processed the definition and converted it to an
expression, as well as collected constant statements from a `ConstantPool`.
A special `IifeEmitScope` implementation was used when emitting into a
context where top-level constant statements couldn't be added at all, and
uses the IIFE strategy in this case.
This commit adds blanket support for associated statements to the linker
using this IIFE strategy. The main `EmitScope` now uses the IIFE strategy to
emit associated statements, and `IifeEmitScope` has been renamed to
`LocalEmitScope`. Now, the `LocalEmitScope` represents constant statements
as associated statements to the main `EmitScope` implementation, so they
get included in the IIFE as well.
Tests are adjusted/added to cover this new behavior. This is a refactoring
commit because no live generated code is affected - there are no cases where
associated statements are present in linked definitions today.

To make our test output i.e. devmode output more aligned
with what we produce in the NPM packages, or to be more
aligned with what Angular applications will usually consume,
the devmode output is switched from ES5 to ES2015.
Additionally various tsconfigs (outside of Bazel) have been
updated to match with the other parts of the build. The rules
are:
ES2015 for test configurations, ES2020 for actual code that will
end up being shipped (this includes the IDE-only tsconfigs).

As outlined in the previous commit which enabled the `esModuleInterop`
TypeScript compiler option, we need to update all namespace imports
for `typescript` to default imports. This is needed to allow for
TypeScript to be imported at runtime from an ES module.
Similar changes are needed for modules like `semver` where the types incorrectly
suggest named exports that will not exist at runtime when imported from ESM.
This commit refactors all imports to match with the lint rule we have
configured in the previous commit. See the previous commit for more
details on why certain imports have been changed.
A special case are the imports to `@babel/core` and `@babel/types`. For
these a special interop is needed as both default imports, or named
imports break the other module format. e.g default imports would work
well for ESM, but it breaks for CJS. For CJS, the named imports would
only work, but in ESM, only the default export exist. We work around
this for now until the devmode is using ESM as well (which would be
consistent with prodmode and gives us more valuable test results). More
details on the interop can be found in the `babel_core.ts` files (two
interops are needed for both localize/or the compiler-cli).

Currently the compiler has three different classes to represent a "call to something":
1. `MethodCall` - `foo.bar()`
2. `SafeMethodCall` - `foo?.bar()`.
3. `FunctionCall` - Any calls that don't fit into the first two classes. E.g. `foo.bar()()`.
There are a few problems with this approach:
1. It is inconistent with the TypeScript AST which only has one node: `CallExpression`.
2. It means that we have to maintain more code, because the various parts of the compiler need to know about three node types.
3. It doesn't allow us to easily implement some new JS features like safe calls (e.g. `foo.bar?.())`).
These changes rework the compiler so that it produces only one node: `Call`. The new node behaves similarly to the TypeScript `CallExpression` whose `receiver` can be any expression.
There was a similar situation in the output AST where we had an `InvokeMethodExpression` and `InvokeFunctionExpression`. I've combined both of them into `InvokeFunctionExpression`.

Some partial libraries have been minified, which results in boolean literals
being converted to `!0` and `!1`. This commit ensures that the linker can
process these values.
Fixes#41655
PR Close#41747
Previously, it was not possible to block a partial-linker from trying to
process a declaration that was defined in a newer version of Angular than
that of the partial-linker. For example, if a partial-linker was published as
part of version 12.0.0, there was no way for a partially-compiled declaration
compiled via version 13.0.0 to tell the 12.0.0 linker that it would be invalid
to attempt to process it.
This commit adds a new `minVersion` property to partial-declarations, which is
interpreted as the "minimum partial-linker version" that can process this
declaration. When selecting a partial-linker for such a declaration, the known
linker version ranges are checked to find the most recent linker whose version
range has an overlap with the interpreted declaration range.
This approach allows us to set a minimum version for a declaration, which
can inform an old partial-linker that will it not be able to accurately
process the declaration.
Note that any pre-release part to versions are ignored in this selection
process.
The file-linker can be configured, via the `unknownDeclarationVersionHandling`
property of `LinkerOptions`, to handle such a situation in one of three ways:
- `error` - the version mismatch is a fatal error
- `warn` - a warning is sent to the logger but the most recent partial-linker
will attempt to process the declaration anyway.
- `ignore` - the most recent partial-linker will, silently, attempt to process
the declaration.
The default is to throw an error.

The linker is implemented using a Babel transform such that Babel needs
to parse and walk a source file to find the declarations that need to be
compiled. If it can be determined that a source file is known not to

performance improvement. This commit adds an exposed function for tools
that integrate the linker to use to allow short-circuiting of the linker
transform.

The types of directives and pipes that are used in a component's
template may be emitted into the partial declaration wrapped inside a
closure, which is needed when the type is declared later in the module.
This poses a problem for JIT compilation of partial declarations, as
this closure is indistinguishable from a class reference itself. To mark
the forward reference function as such, this commit changes the partial
declaration codegen to emit a `forwardRef` invocation wrapped around
the closure, which ensures that the closure is properly tagged as a
forward reference. This allows the forward reference to be treated as
such during JIT compilation.

This commit implements partial compilation of components, together with

This commit does not yet enable accurate source maps into external
templates. This requires additional work to account for escape sequences
which is non-trivial. Inline templates that were represented using a
string or template literal are transplated into the partial declaration
output, so their source maps should be accurate. Note, however, that
the accuracy of source maps is not currently verified in tests; this is
also left as future work.
