The new animations was not correctly looking for the `.` when parsing bindings. This resulted in arbitrary event bindings creating animate.leave instruction calls.

Currently the HTML parser will stop parsing as soon as it hits an end character in the name of an attribute (e.g. `/` or `>`). This ends up being problematic with some third-party packages like Tailwind which uses a wider range of characters for its class names. While the characters are fine when inside the `class` attribute, our current parser behavior prevents users from setting those classes conditionally through `[class.]` bindings.
These changes adjust the parser to handle such cases.
Fixes#61671.

When we introduced blocks, we made a deliberate decision to treat the `@` character as a reserved character in case we need to use it for other syntax in the future. This meant that some common cases, like writing out an email address in the template, can be broken.
After some recent discussions we decided to relax the requirement and only treat `@` as a reserve character if it's followed by a character sequence that matches a known block.

Follow-up from https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/61240#discussion_r2084445328. Adds a `isSelfClosing` property on element-like AST nodes so consumers can easily determine if it's self-closing, rather than having to look at the spans. This is useful for migrations and in the language service.

Enables the new `@let` syntax by default.
`@let` declarations are defined as:
1. The `@let` keyword.
2. Followed by one or more whitespaces.
3. Followed by a valid JavaScript name and zero or more whitespaces.
4. Followed by the `=` symbol and zero or more whitespaces.
5. Followed by an Angular expression which can be multi-line.
6. Terminated by the `;` symbol.
Example usage:
```
@let user = user$ | async;
@let greeting = user ? 'Hello, ' + user.name : 'Loading';
<h1>{{greeting}}</h1>
```

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.

Fixes that the compiler was throwing an error if an element tag name is the same as a built-in prototype property (e.g. `constructor` or `toString`). The problem was that we were storing the tag names in an object literal with the `Object` prototype. These changes resolve the issue by creating an object without a prototype.

Change sourceSpan for Comment nodes to cover the whole comment
instead of just the opening token.
The primary motivation for this is the interaction between ESLint and
`@angular-eslint`. ESLint can detect unused `eslint-disable` directives
in comments and automatically remove them when running with `--fix`.
This is based on ranges computed from AST spans, and as a result
does not work inside Angular templates - right now all comments
claim to be 4 characters long so only the opening `<!--` is removed.

⚠️Disclaimer⚠️ this PR implements syntax that is still in an open RFC. It will be adjusted once the RFC is closed.
These changes implement the `BlockGroup` and `Block` AST nodes that will then be used to generate instructions based on the new syntax. A `BlockGroup` is a container for `Block` instances. The first block of a block is always implicit and required while any subsequent blocks are optional.

After updating to a more recent version of rollup, rollup started to
complain because the `TreeParseResult` class is being re-exported
twice in the `index.ts -> public-api.ts -> compiler.ts` entry-point.
Rollup threw errors like:
```
Error: "ParseTreeResult" cannot be exported from
<..>/ml_parser/parser.mjs as it is a re-export that references itself.
```
It seems like Rollup ideally would not throw here, similar to TypeScript
which detects that these exports are the same and just dedupes them, but
it's low-effort fixing this for now and actually is a good opportunity
to make the public API a little more easy understand (when looking at
the `compiler.ts` file).

The lexer now splits encoded entity tokens out from text and attribute value tokens.
Previously encoded entities would be decoded and the decoded value would be
included as part of the text token of the surrounding text. Now the entities
have their own tokens. There are two scenarios: text and attribute values.
Previously the contents of `<div>Hello & goodbye</div>` would be a single
TEXT token. Now it will be three tokens:
```
TEXT: "Hello "
ENCODED_ENTITY: "&", "&"
TEXT: " goodbye"
```
Previously the attribute value in `<div title="Hello & goodbye">` would be
a single text token. Now it will be three tokens:
```
ATTR_VALUE_TEXT: "Hello "
ENCODED_ENTITY: "&", "&"
ATTR_VALUE_TEXT: " goodbye"
```
- ENCODED_ENTITY tokens have two parts: "decoded" and "encoded".
- ENCODED_ENTITY tokens are always preceded and followed by either TEXT tokens
or ATTR_VALUE_TEXT tokens, depending upon the context, even if they represent
an empty string.
The HTML parser has been modified to recombine these tokens to allow this
refactoring to have limited effect in this commit. Further refactorings
to use these new tokens will follow in subsequent commits.

This commit updates the parser logic to continue to try to match an end
tag to an unclosed open tag on the stack. Previously, it would only
push an error to the list and stop looking at unclosed elements.
For example, the invalid HTML of `<li><div></li>`, has an unclosed
element stack of [`li`, `div`] when it encounters the close `li` tag.
We compare against the previously unclosed tag `div` and see that this is
unexpected. Instead of simply giving up here, we continue to move up the
unclosed tags until we find a match (if there is one).
PR Close#42554
If the template parse option `leadingTriviaChars` is configured to
consider whitespace as trivia, any trailing whitespace of an element
would be considered as leading trivia of the subsequent element, such
that its `start` span would start _after_ the whitespace. This means
that the start span cannot be used to mark the end of the current
element, as its trailing whitespace would then be included in its span.
Instead, the full start of the subsequent element should be used.
To harden the tests that for the Ivy parser, the test utility `parseR3`
has been adjusted to use the same configuration for `leadingTriviaChars`
as would be the case in its production counterpart `parseTemplate`. This
uncovered another bug in offset handling of the interpolation parser,
where the absolute offset was computed from the start source span
(which excludes leading trivia) whereas the interpolation expression
would include the leading trivia. As such, the absolute offset now also
uses the full start span.
Fixes#39148
PR Close#40513
Let's say we have a code like
```html
<div<span>123</span>
```
Currently this gets parsed into a tree with the element tag `div<span`.
This has at least two downsides:
- An incorrect diagnostic that `</span>` doesn't close an element is
emitted.
- A consumer of the parse tree using it for editor services is unable to
provide correct completions for the opening `<span>` tag.
This patch attempts to fix both issues by instead parsing the code into
the same tree that would be parsed for `<div></div><span>123</span>`.
In particular, we do this by optimistically scanning an open tag as
usual, but if we do not notice a terminating '>', we mark the tag as
"incomplete". A parser then emits an error for the incomplete tag and
adds a synthetic (recovered) element node to the tree with the
incomplete open tag's name.
What's the downside of this? For one, a breaking change.
<ol>
<li>
The first breaking change is that `<` symbols that are ambiguously text
or opening tags will be parsed as opening tags instead of text in
element bodies. Take the code
```html
<p>a<b</p>
```
Clearly we cannot have the best of both worlds, and this patch chooses
to swap the parsing strategy to support the new feature. Of course, `<`
can still be inserted as text via the `<` entity.
</li>

Previously, the `sourceSpan` and `startSourceSpan` were the same
object, which meant that you had the following situation:
```
element = <div>some content</div>
sourceSpan = <div>
startSourceSpan = <div>
endSourceSpan = </div>
```
This made `sourceSpan` redundant and meant that if you
wanted a span for the whole element including its content
and closing tag, it had to be computed.
Now `sourceSpan` is separated from `startSourceSpan`
resulting in:
```
element = <div>some content</div>
sourceSpan = <div>some content</div>
startSourceSpan = <div>
endSourceSpan = </div>
