e3fba182f9 feat(forms): add [formField] directive
This will replace the `[field]` directive, since `[field]` is a very
generic name for signal forms to commandeer

refactor(forms): hook up `formField` directive in compiler

Hooks up the `formField` direcive to get the same treatment as the
`field` directive in the compiler.

af1d4acb9d refactor(forms): bind native properties on interop controls
The framework will now bind all field state properties to their
corresponding native properties (if any) on interop form controls (those
using `ControlValueAccessor`), excluding those handled explicitly by
`ControlValueAccessor` such as `disabled`.

a4ba820d36 refactor(forms): bind field properties to all directives on native controls
Since the `Field` directive manages binding `FieldState` properties to
the underlying form control automatically, the type checker prohibits
explicit bindings to the same properties to avoid conflicts. This proved
problematic in cases where developers wanted to bind these properties to
the inputs of other directives on form controls. Now the framework will
bind the field state properties to all matching directive inputs on
native controls.

Fix #65617

9748b0d5da fix(forms): support custom controls with non signal-based models
* Recognize directives with non signal-based models as valid custom controls
* Relax type checker to allow non signal-based models

The `FormValueControl` and `FormCheckboxControl` interfaces still
require a `model()`-input, however, a custom control need not implement
either interface to be bound by the `Field` directive.

All of the following examples can be used to define a custom control:

```ts
// Preferred: model()
class MyFormControl implements FormValueControl<string> {
  readonly value: model.required<string>();
}

// Supported: input() + output()
class MyFormControl {
  readonly value: input.required<string>();
  readonly valueChange: output<string>();
}

// Supported: @Input() + @Output()
class MyFormControl {
  @Input({required: true}) value!: string;
  @Output() valueChange: new EventEmitter<string>();
}
```

The latter two may still choose to implement `FormUiControl` for other
properties, but again it is not required.

81772b420d feat(forms): pass field directive to class config
Updates signal forms to pass the full `Field` directive to the class
configuration functions, rather than just the state. This allows
developers to take the element as well as the state into consideration
when deciding classes to apply.

Closes #65762

BREAKING CHANGE: The shape of `SignalFormsConfig.classes` has changed

Previously each function in the `classes` map took a `FieldState`. Now
it takes a `Field` directive.

For example if you previously had:
```
provideSignalFormsConfig({
  classes: {
    'my-valid': (state) => state.valid()
  }
})
```

You would need to update to:
```
provideSignalFormsConfig({
  classes: {
    'my-valid': ({state}) => state().valid()
  }
})
```

5880fbc73c feat(forms): redo the signal forms metadata API
This PR makes a number of changes to the metadata API to address design
flaws in the previous API. Some of the changes include:

- Replaces the previous `MetadataKey` and `AggregateMetadataKey` with a
  single unified `MetadataKey` that is used for all metadata.
- The new `MetadataKey` is only defined for fields that explicitly set
  it in their schema logic
- All metadata now has reducer / aggregate behavior
- The new `MetadataKey` has an option to create a managed key which
  wraps the result of its computed aggregate into some other structure
  such as a `Resource` or `linkedSignal`
- There are now two APIs to create metadata keys
  - `createMetadataKey` for pure computed metadata
  - `createManagedMetadataKey` for metadata that manages its computation
    internally

bf1c12cd93 fix(forms): memoize reads of child fields in signal forms (#65802)
Previously, navigating a `FieldTree` in signal forms involved reactive reads
of the value of the parent field(s), both directly and via `.childrenMap()`.

This meant that on _any_ change to the value of a field, reactive
notifications would trigger updates of computeds, reruns of effects, etc.
So for example, this effect would run on every change to the form:

```ts
const f = form(signal({data: 'abc', unrelated: 0}));
effect(() => {
  // accessing f.data incurs a dependency on f().value() which changes
  // on every change in the whole form
  console.log(f.data().value());
});
```

This is deeply counterintuitive and troublesome when attempting to write
effect logic, and also results in `computed`s unnecessarily updating.

This change introduces the concept of a "reader" computed, which memoizes
the access of a field at a given key via the reactive graph. With this, the
same `f.data` access above now depends on the `data` reader in `f` only,
which is effectively a constant computed. As a result, the effect only
reruns on changes to `data`'s value, as intended.

2c12661620 refactor(forms): simplify child field creation (#65802)
Previously, several values were being passed into the creation of
`FieldNodeStructure`s that were only used in the creation of child nodes.
Separately, we also passed a `createChildNode` function which these values
were passed back into.

Instead, this moves the small bit of logic from structure.ts behind the
`createChildNode` callback, which reduces the passing of values back-and-
forth and gives `createChildNode` a much more suitable signature.
