model.ts is currently extremely large. This is the first step in an attempt to refactor it to be more easily navigable and reviewable. This commit breaks up `model.ts` into the following new files:
* `model/abstract_model.ts`: The remainder of the model, including the `AbstractControl` base class and helper functions which are used throughout.
* `model/form_control.ts`: `FormControl`, `FormControlOptions`, and helpers, plus the constructor and untyped friends.
* `model/form_array.ts`: `FormArray` and untyped friends.
* `model/form_group.ts`: `FormGroup` and untyped friends.
This first phase is a purely mechanical code move. There is no new code at all, and no interfaces have been separated.

We had previously introduced an `AnyForUntypedForms` type alias. However, given our updated migration plan, we actually want to use aliases for the model classes themselves. This commit introduces these aliases, and adds them to the public API. It must be merged before the types, in order to migrate google3.

This implementation change was originally proposed as part of Typed Forms, and will have major consequences for that project as described in the design doc. Submitting it separately will greatly simplify the risk of landing Typed Forms. This change should have no visible impact on normal users of FormControl.

Allow a FormControl to be reset to its initial value. Provide this feature via a new option in a FormControlOptions interface, based on AbstractControlOptions.
Also, expose the default value as part of the public API. This is part of a feature that has been requested elsewhere (e.g. in #19747).
This was originally proposed as part of typed forms. As discussed in the GDE session (and after with akushnir/alxhub), it is likely better to just reuse the initial value rather than accepting an additional default.
It is desirable to land this separately in order to reduce the scope of the typed forms PR, and make it a types-only change.
Pertains to issue #13721.

This reverts commit cdf50ff931.
Reverting as this needs a little more work on the documentation side, plus
the `export declare interface` syntax in `model.ts` might have unintended
side effects in g3.

This commit makes the `FormControlStatus` symbol available as a public API. The symbol itself
was intended to become a part of the public API, but due to the missing re-export, the symbol
remains private.
Fixes#44176.

This commit adds the missing `min` and `max` validators.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Previously `min` and `max` attributes defined on the `<input type="number">`
were ignored by Forms module. Now presence of these attributes would
trigger min/max validation logic (in case `formControl`, `formControlName`
or `ngModel` directives are also present on a given input) and
corresponding form control status would reflect that.
Fixes#16352

Removes the deprecated `ngForm` element selector and all of the code related to it.
BREAKING CHANGES:
* `<ngForm></ngForm>` can no longer be used as a selector. Use `<ng-form></ng-form>` instead.
* The `NgFromSelectorWarning` directive has been removed.
* `FormsModule.withConfig` has been removed. Use the `FormsModule` directly.
PR Close#33058
This PR also changes the name of NgNoValidate` to `ɵNgNoValidate`. This is because `ngcc` requires the node to retain the original name while dts bundler will rename the node is it's only exported using the aliases.
Example typings files:
```ts
declare class NgNoValidate{
}
export {NgNoValidateas ɵNgNoValidate}
```
will be emitted as
```ts
export declare class ɵNgNoValidate {
}
```

@angular/forms declares several directives and a module which are not
exported from the package via the entrypoint, either intentionally or as a
historical accident.
Ivy's locality principle necessitates that directives used in user code be
importable from the package which defines them. This requires these forms
directives to be exported.
Several directives which define ControlValueAccessors are exported:
* NumberValueAccessor
* RangeValueAccessor
A few more directives and a module are exported privately (with a ɵ prefix):
* NgNoValidate
* NgSelectMultipleOption
* InternalFormsSharedModule

This has been deprecated to keep selector consistent with other core Angular selectors. As element selectors are in kebab-case.
Now deprecated:
```
<ngForm #myForm="ngForm">
```
After:
```
<ng-form #myForm="ngForm">
```
You can also choose to supress this warnings by providing a config for `FormsModule` during import:
```ts
imports: [
FormsModule.withConfig({warnOnDeprecatedNgFormSelector: 'never'});
]

With 4.2, we introduced the min and max validator directives. This was actually a breaking change because their selectors could include custom value accessors using the min/max properties for their own purposes.
For now, we are rolling back the change by removing the exports. At the least, we should wait to add them until a major version. In the meantime, we will have further discussion about what the best solution is going forward for all validator directives.
Closes#17491.

PR #17551 tried to roll this back, but did not remove the dead code. This failed internal tests that were checking that all declared directives were used.

This commit fixes a regression where `ngModel` no longer syncs
letter by letter on Android devices, and instead syncs at the
end of every word. This broke when we introduced buffering of
IME events so IMEs like Pinyin keyboards or Katakana keyboards
wouldn't display composition strings. Unfortunately, iOS devices
and Android devices have opposite event behavior. Whereas iOS
devices fire composition events for IME keyboards only, Android
fires composition events for Latin-language keyboards. For
this reason, languages like English don't work as expected on
Android if we always buffer. So to support both platforms,
composition string buffering will only be turned on by default
for non-Android devices.
However, we have also added a `COMPOSITION_BUFFER_MODE` token
to make this configurable by the application. In some cases, apps
might might still want to receive intermediate values. For example,
some inputs begin searching based on Latin letters before a
character selection is made.
As a provider, this is fairly flexible. If you want to turn
composition buffering off, simply provide the token at the top
level:
```ts
providers: [
{provide: COMPOSITION_BUFFER_MODE, useValue: false}
]
```
Or, if you want to change the mode based on locale or platform,
you can use a factory:
```ts
import {shouldUseBuffering} from 'my/lib';
....
providers: [
{provide: COMPOSITION_BUFFER_MODE, useFactory: shouldUseBuffering}
]
```
