This further builds out the Router integration with the platform
Navigation API. Key features in this state include:
* History restoration via direct platform APIs rather than markers left on
`history.state`. This means more guaranteed correctness and less
internal code to compute traversal restorations.
* Ability to observe navigations triggered outside the Router APIs.
Practically speaking, this means some navigations can be performed
through the platform rather than requiring `Router.navigate`. Note
that because the `NavigateEvent` is never intercepted at this point of
the implementation, regular anchor tags cannot be used because they
will still trigger a popstate navigation.
This implementation does _not_ intercept the `NavigateEvent` but future
iterations should. By omitting the interception, we are missing out on
features such as:
* Platform-supported scroll and focus reset
* Holding the navigate event open for the duration of the router
navigation, allowing for a visual loading indicator in the browser
* Support for intercepting navigations from regular anchor tags (e.g.
not `RouterLink`s) and converting those to SPA navigations.

This adds a (private) provider for integrating with the browser Navigation API.
This provider ensures that interactions with the `Location` service
use the underlying platform navigation rather than the history and
location APIs.
This cleans up the navigation transitions a bit by removing some
unnecessary operators. Combining operators makes debugging easier by
making it possible to step through the code.

This fixes a bug introduced in #63485 where `firstValueFrom` was used. This
doesn't work in all situations here because some observables don't
emit before completing. These errors should result in the route matching
logic moving on to the next route.
Note: This is marked as a refactor rather than fix because the commit above is not in
any release yet.

This commit also include an `ng update` migration to ensure `lastSuccessfulNavigation` is invoked.
BREAKING CHANGE: `lastSuccessfulNavigation` is now a signal and needs to be invoked
PR Close#63057
This new signal property is convenient to derive a `isNavigating` state.
`isNavigating = computed(() => !!this.router.currentNavigation())`
DEPRECATED: The Router.getCurrentNavigation method is deprecated. Use the Router.currentNavigation signal instead.

This updates async router tests to use the jasmine autoTick feature. Observed test timings
for the chromium tests went down from ~7.5s to ~3.5-4s. For node, these decreased from ~5.5s to ~3s.
In addition to the speed improvement, this feature:
* Removes the need to be careful about timeout ordering when there are several timeouts in tests.
* Removes the need to ensure test timeouts are kept sufficiently small
* Reduces overall flakiness
PR Close#62776
Preloaded components were not being activated in certain scenarios when preloading was enabled. This change ensures that components are correctly activated after being preloaded.

This updates the timeouts in a couple flakey router tests. Ideally we can use the jasmine
auto ticking as soon as tests are migrated to web test runner and we are on the latest
version of jasmine

These helpers are often imported by various tests throughout the
repository, but the helpers aren't exported/exposed from the public
entry-point; even though they confusingly reside in there.
This commit fixes this, and moves the helpers into
`packages/private/testing`. This is a preparation for the `ts_project`
migration where we don't want to leverage deep imports between packages.

There is nothing in the Router that requires ZoneJS and we do not need
`fakeAsync` as a mock clock. We can instead use any mock clock implementation
to speed up test execution.
This removes ZoneJS completely from the bundle of the Router tests.
ZoneJS causes the stacks to be unreadable when combined with the massive
rxjs stack in the router transition.

This commit adds the ability to directly abort a navigation through the
`Router.getCurrentNavigation()?.abort()` method. While there are no
feature requests for this, it is a feature that will be necessary for
integration with the navigation API. The API enables better tracking of
an ongoing navigation for SPAs and a site visitor can cancel a
navigation by clicking the stop button in the browser. While this could
technically be done on the transition with an internal jsdoc comment to
hide it from application developers, there's no need.
With this feature, I believe it would be possible to create somewhat of a shim
to integrate with the navigation API even before the router has full support
using the router events to control a deferred navigation that never
commits the URL and always aborts itself on navigation end.
