We've been seeing some reports about Angular DevTools being unable to detect applications running in dev mode.
This commit adds more context to the error message displayed when development mode is not detected and offers some possible resolutions.
Displays 3 common reasons why DevTools fails to detect an application running in dev mode. Links directly to angular.dev for relevant configurations.
Links to the Angular DevTools issue template if none of the suggestions work.

Angular DevTools depends on many modern Angular features in order to function. As a result, at present the last officially supported version is v12. Angular DevTools may function for some Angular 9, 10 and 11 applications, but they are not officially supported.
This commit fixes an issue where DevTools would not inject a backend script into an Angular application if it detected it was below version 12. This backend script is important because it's used to inform the DevTools panel that the inspected application is in fact Angular, but that it is not on a supported version.
Angular 9, 10 and 11 applications that successfully have Angular DevTools initialize will now have a red highlight and tooltip on their version number, informing the user that they are using Angular DevTools on a version of Angular that is no longer supported.
Angular DevTools for applications that are below version 9 will continue to display the "Angular Devtools supports Angular versions 12 and above" message.

In the Angular DevTools Chrome DevTools page:
- Angular DevTools is able to ask the background script to list each frame that has been registered on a page.
- Angular Devtools is able to ask the background script to "enable" the connection on a particular frame. This enables the messaging between the content script <-> background script <-> devtools page
- Implements detection of non unique urls on the inspected page
Limitations:
- The `inspectedWindow.eval` API is only able to target frames by frameURL. This means some features that integrate with Chrome DevTools like inspect element and open source will not be available when inspecting frames that do not have a unique url on the page.

DevMode is when the ng debug object is available. `Optimization:true` is responsible for treeshaking everything behind `ngDevMode`.

In Angular v12 we introduced debugging APIs sufficient for DevTools.
Prior to that Angular DevTools accesses the logical data structures of
Ivy directly, which sometimes produces suboptimal results and skips
dynamically inserted content.
With the end of v11's LTS, we'll support only Angular v12 and up.
