SVG animation elements (`animate` and `set`) can be used to animate sensitive attributes like `href` or `xlink:href`. Binding to these animation attributes (like `to`, `from`, or `values`) with a sensitive target creates an XSS vector.
This change mitigates this risk by:
1. Classifying `to`, `from`, and `values` on `<animate>` and `<set>` elements as `ATTRIBUTE_NO_BINDING` in the DOM security schema to prevent standard dynamic bindings.
2. Adding runtime validations in `ɵɵvalidateAttribute` to verify that `attributeName` is not a sensitive attribute (such as `href` or `xlink:href`) when processed by a set of `SECURITY_SENSITIVE_ATTRIBUTE_NAMES`. If it is, a runtime error `UNSAFE_ATTRIBUTE_BINDING` is thrown.
3. Adding regression tests in `integration_spec.ts` to ensure unsafe bindings throw an error while safe ones pass correctly.

Previously, the `data` attribute of the `<object>` tag was being sanitized as a regular URL instead of a `ResourceURL`, which is security-sensitive.
This commit updates the runtime sanitization logic to correctly identify `object[data]` as a `ResourceURL` context. Additionally, the sanitizer lookup logic has been refactored to use a more efficient lookup map (`RESOURCE_MAP`) instead of multiple `Set` lookups, providing better performance and maintainability.
Added tests to verify the correct sanitization of `object[data]` and its behavior with trusted values.

This change is a security hardening measure to prevent potentially unsafe attribute value manipulation through SVG animations. By mapping `animate|to`, `animate|from`, `animate|values`, and `set|to` to the `SecurityContext.URL`, Angular will now automatically sanitize these attributes.

Adds new runtime sanitization error codes. Adds `ngDevMode` guards around
error message strings to ensure detailed diagnostics are included only
in development mode. This allows production builds to tree-shake verbose error descriptions, reducing bundle size.
This commit updates HTML sanitization logic to avoid infinite loops in case clobbered elements contain fields like `nextSibling` or `parentNode`. Those fields are used for DOM traversal and this update makes sure that those calls return valid results.
Also this commit fixes an issue when clobbering `nodeName` causes JS exceptions.

A lot of our tests are wrapped in `{}` which serves no purpose, aside from increasing the nesting level and, in some cases, causing confusion. The braces appear to be a leftover from a time when all tests were wrapped in a `function main() {}`. The function declaration was removed in #21053, but the braces remained, presumably because it was easier to search&replace for `function main()`, but not to remove the braces at the same time.

In modern browsers, the 'javascript:' URL scheme is the only scheme that
can execute JavaScript when passed in a navigation URL context (e.g.
`a.href` value). Validate URL shemes to only contain characters allowed
in the URL specification ([a-zA-Z-+.]), and that are not javascript
(case insensitive). This is not a breaking change. The URL sanitization
is loosen.

This commit consolidates the `RendererFactory` and `Sanitizer` properties
of `LView` onto a single object, the `LViewEnvironment`. These properties
are both set from DI when the root view is created, and not overridden when
child views are created (but inherited from the parent view).
This is a precursor commit to adding the `EffectManager` into the
`LViewEnvironment`.

In some browsers, notably a mobile version of webkit on iPad, the
result of calling `DOMParser.parseFromString()` returns a document
whose `body` property is null until the next tick of the browser.
Since this is of no use to us for sanitization, we now fall back to the
"inert document" strategy for this case.

The trustConstantHtml and trustConstantResourceUrl functions are only
meant to be passed constant strings extracted from Angular application
templates, as passing other strings or variables could introduce XSS
vulnerabilities.
To better protect these APIs, turn them into template tags. This makes
it possible to assert that the associated template literals do not
contain any interpolation, and thus must be constant.

`previousOrParentTNode` stores current `TNode`. Due to inconsistent
implementation the value stored would sometimes belong to the current
`TView` and sometimes to the parent. We have extra logic which accounts
for it. A better solution is to just ensure that `previousOrParentTNode`
always belongs to current `TNode`. This simplifies the mental model
and cleans up some code.

Fix a bug in the HTML sanitizer where an unclosed iframe tag would
result in an escaped closing body tag as the output:
_sanitizeHtml(document, '<iframe>') => '</body>'
This closing body tag comes from the DOMParserHelper where the HTML to be
sanitized is wrapped with surrounding body tags. When an opening iframe
tag is parsed by DOMParser, which DOMParserHelper uses, everything up
until its matching closing tag is consumed as a text node. In the above
example this includes the appended closing body tag.
By removing the explicit closing body tag from the DOMParserHelper and
relying on the body tag being closed implicitly at the end, the above
example is sanitized as expected:
_sanitizeHtml(document, '<iframe>') => ''

This patch is the first of many commits to disable sanitization for
[stlye.prop] and [style] bindings in Angular.
Historically, style-based sanitization has only been required for old
IE browsers (IE6 and IE7). Since Angular does not support these old
browsers at all, there is no reason for the framework to support
style-based sanitization.

This change enables "var(--my-var)" to pass through the style sanitizer.
After consulation with our security team, allowing these doesn't create
new attack vectors, so the sanitizer doesn't need to strip them.
Fixes parts of #23485 related to the sanitizer, other use cases discussed
there related to binding have been addressed via other changes to the
class and style handling in the runtime.

In VE the `Sanitizer` is always available in `BrowserModule` because the VE retrieves it using injection.
In Ivy the injection is optional and we have instructions instead of component definition arrays. The implication of this is that in Ivy the instructions can pull in the sanitizer only when they are working with a property which is known to be unsafe. Because the Injection is optional this works even if no Sanitizer is present. So in Ivy we first use the sanitizer which is pulled in by the instruction, unless one is available through the `Injector` then we use that one instead.
This PR does few things:
1) It makes `Sanitizer` optional in Ivy.
2) It makes `DomSanitizer` tree shakable.
3) It aligns the semantics of Ivy `Sanitizer` with that of the Ivy sanitization rules.
4) It refactors `DomSanitizer` to use same functions as Ivy sanitization for consistency.

There is an encoding issue with using delta `Δ`, where the browser will attempt to detect the file encoding if the character set is not explicitly declared on a `<script/>` tag, and Chrome will find the `Δ` character and decide it is window-1252 encoding, which misinterprets the `Δ` character to be some other character that is not a valid JS identifier character

In the past, the sanitizer would remove unsafe elements, but still
traverse and sanitize (and potentially preserve) their content. This was
problematic in the case of `<style></style>` tags, whose content would
be converted to HTML text nodes.
In order to fix this, the sanitizer's behavior was changed in #25879 to
ignore the content of _all_ unsafe elements. While this fixed the
problem with `<style></style>` tags, it unnecessarily removed the
contents for _any_ unsafe element. This was an unneeded breaking change.
This commit partially restores the old sanitizer behavior (namely
traversing content of unsafe elements), but introduces a list of
elements whose content should not be traversed if the elements
themselves are considered unsafe. Currently, this list contains `style`,
`script` and `template`.
Related to #25879 and #26007.

For efficiency reasons we often put several different data types (`RNode`, `LView`, `LContainer`,
`StylingContext`) in same location in `LView`. This is because we don't want to pre-allocate
space
for it because the storage is sparse. This file contains utilities for dealing with such data
types.
How do we know what is stored at a given location in `LView`.
- `Array.isArray(value) === false` => `RNode` (The normal storage value)
- `Array.isArray(value) === true` => than the `value[0]` represents the wrapped value.
- `typeof value[TYPE] === 'object'` => `LView`
- This happens when we have a component at a given location
- `typeof value[TYPE] === 'number'` => `StylingContext`
- This happens when we have style/class binding at a given location.
- `typeof value[TYPE] === true` => `LContainer`
- This happens when we have `LContainer` binding at a given location.
NOTE: it is assumed that `Array.isArray` and `typeof` operations are very efficient.

This commit adds sanitization for `elementProperty` and `elementAttribute` instructions used in `hostBindings` function, similar to what we already have in the `template` function. Main difference is the fact that for some attributes (like "href" and "src") we can't define which SecurityContext they belong to (URL vs RESOURCE_URL) in Compiler, since information in Directive selector may not be enough to calculate it. In order to resolve the problem, Compiler injects slightly different sanitization function which detects proper Security Context at runtime.
