BREAKING CHANGE:
This commit deprecates `ng-reflect-*` attributes and updates the runtime to stop producing them by default. Please refactor application and test code to avoid relying on `ng-reflect-*` attributes.
To enable a more seamless upgrade to v20, we've added the `provideNgReflectAttributes()` function (can be imported from the `@angular/core` package), which enables the mode in which Angular would be producing those attribites (in dev mode only). You can add the `provideNgReflectAttributes()` function to the list of providers within the bootstrap call.

Instead of stabilizing the TestBed.flushEffects() API we intend to
replace it with the tick() method (equivalent of ApplicationRef.tick().
The reasoning here is that we prefer tests running the entire
synchronization process (as in production apps) instead of invoking
parts of the synchronization process in a way that would naver happen
in a running application.

When Angular runs application synchronization automatically, animations
are now guaranteed to be flushed, regardless of whether change detection
was run on any components attached to `ApplicationRef`. This most
frequently affects animations related to component removal where the DOM
element for the component would previously not be removed due to
animations not being flushed
BREAKING CHANGE: Animations are guaranteed to be flushed when Angular
runs automatic change detection or manual calls to `ApplicationRef.tick`.
Prior to this change, animations would not be flushed in some situations
if change detection did not run on any views attached to the
application. This change can affect tests which may rely on the old
behavior, often by making assertions on DOM elements that should have
been removed but weren't because DOM removal is delayed until animations
are flushed.

This commit ensures that errors during `ApplicationRef.tick` are
surfaced to the callsite rather than being caught and reported to the
`ErrorHandler`.
The current catch and report approach was originally
added in e263e19a2a
with the goal of preventing automatic change detection crashes due to
the error happening in the subscription. However, this results in hiding
a public API that can hide errors. Callers cannot assume that the tick
was successful and perform follow-up work.
This change now surfaces errors and adds the error handling directly to
the callsites.
BREAKING CHANGE: `ApplicationRef.tick` will no longer catch and report
errors to the appplication `ErrorHandler`. Errors will instead be thrown out of
the method and will allow callers to determine how to handle these
errors, such as aborting follow-up work or reporting the error and
continuing.

If we want to target an input write to a directive, we have to know the index at which its instance is stored. Technically we can already find this by looking through `TView.data`, but that'll require a linear lookup for each write which can get slow.
These changes introduce the new `TNode.directiveToIndex` map which allows us to quickly find the index of a directive based on its definition, as well as any host directives that its might've brought in.
PR Close#60075
Currently `TNode.inputs`/`TNode.outputs` store all of the available bindings on that node, no matter if they came from a directive that the user applied directly or from a host directive. This has a couple of drawbacks:
1. We need to store more information that necessary. For example, the only reason we have strings in the arrays is to facilitate host directive aliasing.
2. It doesn't allow us to distinguish which host directives belong to which selector-matched directives.
These changes are a step towards resolving both issues by storing the host directive binding information in separate data structures.
PR Close#60036
Currently the values in `DirectiveDef.inputs` are either strings or arrays, depending if there are flags. This makes it a bit hard to work with, because each time it's read, the consumer needs to account for both cases.
These changes rework it so the values are always an arrays.

Angular DevTools is working on developing signal debugging support. This commit is a step in the direction of making available debug information to the framework that will allow Angular DevTools to provide users with more accurate information regarding the usage of signals in their applications.
Follow up PRs that will use this arg will:
- Develop a typescript transform that will detect usages of signal functions and attempt to add a debugName without the user needing to specify one directly
- Develop debug APIs for discovering signal graphs within Angular applications (using debugName as a way to label nodes on the graph)

Previously, effect() would handle errors differently depending on the effect
type. Root effects had a try/catch that would execute them independently and
report errors to `ErrorHandler`, while component effects would "crash" CD.
This commit switches all effects to use the same error handling (errors
always reach the CD error handler).
An additional unrelated refactoring is thrown in which removes the
`pendingTask` machinery from root effects, since they make `ApplicationRef`
dirty and thus trigger the scheduler.
PR Close#57952
The original effect design for Angular had one "bucket" of effects, which
are scheduled on the microtask queue. This approach got us pretty far, but
as developers have built more complex reactive systems, we've hit the
limitations of this design.
This commit changes the nature of effects significantly. In particular,
effects created in components have a completely new scheduling system, which
executes them as a part of the change detection cycle. This results in
behavior similar to that of nested effects in other reactive frameworks. The
scheduling behavior here uses the "mark for traversal" flag
(`HasChildViewsToRefresh`). This has really nice behavior:
* if the component is dirty already, effects run following preorder hooks
(ngOnInit, etc).
* if the component isn't dirty, it doesn't get change detected only because
of the dirty effect.
This is not a breaking change, since `effect()` is in developer preview (and
it remains so).
As a part of this redesigned `effect()` behavior, the `allowSignalWrites`
flag was removed. Effects no longer prohibit writing to signals at all. This
decision was taken in response to feedback / observations of usage patterns,
which showed the benefit of the restriction did not justify the DX cost.
The new effect timing is not yet enabled - a future PR will flip the flag.

The `afterRender` infrastructure was first implemented around the idea of
independent, singular hooks. It was later updated to support a spec of
multiple hooks that pass values from one to another as they execute, but the
implementation still worked in terms of singular hooks under the hood. This
creates a number of maintenance issues, and a few bugs. For example, when
one hook fails, further hooks in the pipeline should no longer execute, but
this was hard to ensure under the old design.
This refactoring restructures `afterRender` infrastructure significantly to
introduce the concept of a "sequence", a collection of hooks of different
phases that execute together. Overall, the implementation is simplified
while making it more resilient to issues and future use cases, such as the
upcoming `afterRenderEffect`.
As part of this refactoring, the `internalAfterNextRender` concept is
removed, as well as the unused `queueStateUpdate` concept which used it.

These changes replace most usages of `removeChild` with `remove`. The latter has the advantage of not having to look up the `parentNode` and ensure that the child being removed actually belongs to the specific parent.
The refactor should be fairly safe since all the browsers we cover support `remove`. [Something similar was done in Components](https://github.com/angular/components/pull/23592) some time ago and there haven't been any bug reports as a result.

Fixes that the runtime implementation of `ɵɵngDeclareDirective` was interpreting the `hostDirectives` mapping incorrectly. Instead of treating the inputs/outputs as `['binding', 'alias']` arrays, it was parsing them as `['binding: alias']`. This was leading to runtime errors if a user is consuming a partially-compiled library in JIT mode.

Adds the implementation of the following new instructions:
* `declareLet` - creation-time instruction that initializes the slot for a let declaration.
* `storeLet` - update-time instruction that stores the current value of a let declaration.
* `readContextLet` - instruction that reads the stored value of a let declaration from a different view.
On top of the instructions, it also introduces a new `LetDeclaration` TNode type.
The new TNode is nececessary for DI to work correctly in pipes inside the let expression,
as well as for proper hydration support.

This commit starts exposing `isSignal` for inputs in the

signal inputs, but there were no good use-cases, so we skipped it.

advancements for signal inputs, having this information is necessary and
allows identifying signal inputs without "accessing fields" on the class
that may cause side-effects (like triggering setters).
