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.

These changes integrate let declarations into the template pipeline. This involves a few operations:
* Producing a `declareLet` instruction call at creation time to initialize the declaration.
* Producing a `storeLet` instruction call in the place of the let declaration, including the necessary `advance` calls beforehand.
* For let declarations used within their declaration view, moving the `const` to be placed right after the `storeLet` call to ensure the their value has been computed.
* For let declarations that are _only_ used in their declaration view, removing the `storeLet` call and inlining the expression into the constant statement.

Whenever we parse object property assignment shorthands in expression
ASTs, the AST will have no information about whether the property read
for the `LiteralMap` is built based on the shorthand or not.
Exposing this information in the AST is useful for migrations as those
might need to decompose the shorthand into its longer form to e.g.
invoke a signal read.

Integrates let declarations into the template type checker by producing corresponding constants in the TCB.
This also includes a couple of custom diagnostics to flag usages of let before they're declared and illegal writes to let declarations. We can't rely on TS for these checks, because it includes the variable name in the diagnostic.

Currently we optimize methods that pass both `$index` and the item into a method. We can take this a step further by also optimizing calls that only pass `$index` into the first parameter.

Since we aren't using clang anymore, we can remove the comments and the workarounds that were in place to prevent it from doing the wrong thing.
PR Close#55750
Currently the variable optimization phase happens somewhat late in the process which is okay since the variables are generally static (e.g. `reference()` instruction calls). In some upcoming work we'll have variables that consume slots and require `advance` instructions. To allow for them to be optimized correctly, we need to move the variable optimization phase earlier, at least before we allocate the slots.

Fixes that we didn't have the MathML elements in the schema. Note that we can't discover which tag names are available by looking at globally-available classes, because all MathML elements are `MathMLElement` rather than something like `SVGCircleElement`. As such, I ended up having to hardcode the currently-available tags.
Fixes#55608.

Currently fallback content for `ng-content` gets declared and rendered out in one go. This breaks down if multiple instances of the same component are used where one doesn't render the fallback content while the other one does, because the `TNode` for the content has to be created during the first creation pass.
These changes resolve the issue by always _declaring_ the template, but only rendering it if the slot is empty.
Fixes#55466.

Two-way bindings are meant to represent a property binding to an input and an event binding to an output, e.g. `[(ngModel)]="foo"` represents `[ngModel]="foo" (ngModelChange)="foo = $event"`. Previously due to a quirk in the template parser, we accidentally supported unassignable expressions in two-way bindings.
In #54154 the quirk was fixed, but we kept support or some common expression because of internal usages. Now the internal usages have been cleaned up so the backwards-compatibility code can be deleted.
Externally a migration was added in #54630 that will automatically fix any places that depended on the old behavior.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Angular only supports writable expressions inside of two-way bindings.

Previously the input flags were being generated as a reference to an enum member for better readability and under the assumption that minifiers would inline the values. That doesn't appear to be the case so these changes switch to using the literal values instead.

Builds on top of the previous changes to add support for deferred blocks during partial compilation. To do this, the following changes had to be made:
* The metadata passed into `ɵɵngDeclareComponent` has an additional field called `deferBlockDependencies` which has an array of the dependency loading functions for each defer block in the template. During linking, the dependency functions are loaded by matching their template index to the index in the `deferBlockDependencies` array.
* There's a new `ɵɵngDeclareClassMetadataAsync` function that is created for components that have deferred dependencies. It gets transpiled to `setClassMetadataAsync` and works in the same way by capturing a dependency loading function and setting the metadata after the dependencies are resolved. It also has some extra fields for capturing the version which are standard in linker-generated code.
* Deferred import statements are now stripped in partial compilation mode, similar to full compilation.

Adds the `ɵɵngDeclareClassMetadataAsync` function that will be produced during partial compilation for component classes that have deferred dependencies. At runtime the dependencies will be resolved before setting the metadata.

Switches to tracking the deferred blocks in a flat array in the binder to ensure that their template order is maintained. This will be relevant in the next commits where we'll match deferred blocks by their index.
Note that the current map we have technically guarantees the insertion order in the spec, but the array is a bit more explicit.

Previously only the first branch of an `if` block was captured for content projection. This was done because of some planned refactors in the future. Since we've decided not to apply those refactors to conditionals, these changes update the compiler to capture each branch individually for content projection purposes.

Currently when aliasing a `for` loop variable with `let`, we replace the variable's old name with the new one. Since users have found this to be confusing, these changes switch to a model where the variable is available both under the original name and the new one.
Fixes#52528.

Previously we assumed that if a `for` loop tracking function is in the form of `someMethod($index, $item)`, it will be pure so we didn't pass the parameter to bind the context to it. This appears to be risky, because we don't know if the method is trying to access `this`.
These changes play it safe by always binding method-based tracking functions.
Fixes#53628.

Currently we have the `deferrableDeclToImportDecl`, `deferBlocks`, `deferrableTypes` and `deferBlockDepsEmitMode` fields on the `R3ComponentMetadata` which is incorrect, because the interface is used both for JIT and AOT mode even though the information for those fields is AOT-specific. It will be problematic for partial compilation since the runtime will have a reference to the dependency loading function, but will not be able to provide any of the other information.
These changes make the following refactors:
1. It changes the defer-related information in `R3ComponentMetadata` to include only references to dependency functions which can be provided both in JIT and AOT.
2. Moves the AOT-specific defer analysis into the `ComponentResolutionData`.
3. Moves the construction the defer dependency function into the compilation phase of the `ComponentDecoratorHandler`.
4. Drops support for defer blocks from the `TemplateDefinitionBuilder`. This allows us to clean up some TDB-specific code and shouldn't have an effect on users since the TDB isn't used anymore.

`TemplateDefinitionBuilder` is the legacy template compiler, and was replaced by Template Pipeline as the default in v17.3.
This PR attempts to delete `TemplateDefinitionBuilder`, `ExpressionConverter`, and various helpers (i18n context, style builder, property visitors, etc).

The following changes help the language service code build in g3:
* `Omit<T>` produces an index signature, so we must access the resulting properties with square bracket (because `noPropertyAccessFromIndexSignature` is on in g3).
* Explicitly export `absoluteFrom` from `packages/compiler-cli/index.ts`, since the `*` re-export is patched out in g3.
* Remove const from a few const enums, since accessing const enums across modules is not compatible with `isolatedModules` (which is on in g3).

Previously, the language service relied on deep imports such as `@angular/compiler/render3/...`. This is bad form, because that creates a dependency on the package's internal structure. Additionally, this is not compatible with google3.
