pnpm v10.17.0 adds support for wildcards in 'minimumReleaseAgeExclude'. This simplifies the configuration by allowing the use of '@angular-devkit/*' and '@angular/*' instead of listing each package individually.

This commit introduces a new `pnpm run devtools:release` command to streamline the Angular DevTools release process.
The command automates the entire release workflow, including checking for new commits, updating version numbers, creating a release commit, and guiding the user through the publishing steps for both Chrome and Firefox extensions.
The `devtools/docs/release.md` documentation has been updated to reflect the use of this new command, providing a single entry point for the release process.
A new script `devtools/tools/release.mts` has been added to implement the release logic, and `package.json` has been updated to include the new script.

This commit introduces a number of changes to the server bootstrapping process to make it more robust and less error-prone, especially for concurrent requests.
Previously, the server rendering process relied on a module-level global platform injector. This could lead to issues in server-side rendering environments where multiple requests are processed concurrently, as they could inadvertently share or overwrite the global injector state.
The new approach introduces a `BootstrapContext` that is passed to the `bootstrapApplication` function. This context provides a platform reference that is scoped to the individual request, ensuring that each server-side render has an isolated platform injector. This prevents state leakage between concurrent requests and makes the overall process more reliable.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The server-side bootstrapping process has been changed to eliminate the reliance on a global platform injector.
Before:
```ts
const bootstrap = () => bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, config);
```
After:
```ts
const bootstrap = (context: BootstrapContext) =>
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, config, context);
```
A schematic is provided to automatically update `main.server.ts` files to pass the `BootstrapContext` to the `bootstrapApplication` call.
In addition, `getPlatform()` and `destroyPlatform()` will now return `null` and be a no-op respectively when running in a server environment.

This commit introduces an experimental version of a new signal-based forms API for Angular. This new API aims to explore how signals can be leveraged to create a more declarative, intuitive, and reactive way of handling forms.
The primary goals of this new signal-based approach are:
* **Signal-centric Design:** Place signals at the core of the forms experience, enabling a truly reactive programming model for form state and logic.
* **Declarative Logic:** Allow developers to define form behavior, such as validation and conditional fields, declaratively using TypeScript. This moves logic out of the template and into a typed, testable schema.
* **Developer-Owned Data Model:** The library does not maintain a copy of data in a form model, but instead read and write it via a developer-provided `WritableSignal`, eliminating the need for applications to synchronize their data with the form system.
* **Interoperability:** A key design goal is seamless interoperability with existing reactive forms, allowing for incremental adoption.
* **Bridging Template and Reactive Forms:** This exploration hopes to close the gap between template and reactive forms, offering a unified and more powerful approach that combines the best aspects of both.
This initial version of the experimental API includes the core building blocks, such as the `form()` function, `Field` and `FieldState` objects, and a `[control]` directive for binding to UI elements. It also introduces a schema-based system for defining validation, conditional logic, and other form behaviors.
Note: This is an early, experimental API. It is not yet complete and is subject to change based on feedback and further exploration.
