This commit implements the replacement of rollup and terser with esbuild for generating the contract_bundle binary. The transition is facilitated by optimizations aimed at reducing the bundle size.

Rename `BaseDispatcher` to `Dispatcher` and `Dispatcher` to
`LegacyDispatcher`. The `GlobalHandler` type and `stopPropagation`
function needs to be left for now in dispatcher.ts as it was not
exported previously from legacy_dispatcher.ts.

This behavior is now implemented by calling `dispatch` whether or not
the `action` is populated. The `Dispatcher` then does global dispatch
and early returns if there's no action.

This will allow a multi-app application to listen to early events from different elements and place them

This define has been removed at head, and now legacy stop propagation

This commit updates Terser config to disable property renaming for the event delegation script (that we later inline into the HTML during SSR). The problem is that event dispatcher relies on some functions on the EventContract class to have original names after after minification, we loose an ability to call those functions.

This will enable refactoring existing usages of the Dispatcher that use
APIs that we do not intend to support, like registerGlobalHandler and
registerEventInfoHandlers to use the LegacyDispatcher.

The change in the index is to allow the framework to add a type to the object that is passed from the contract to the dispatcher. ie
registerDispatcher(contract, (eventInfo: EventInfoWrapper) => ...).
The latter is to return the event contract so that tests can clean it up.

Flip `stopPropagation` constructor parameter default to `false` for
`EventContract` and `EventContractMultiContainer`. Change type for
`EventContract` to `false` to indicate that no values besides `false`
should be passed. This enables removing all usages of `stopPropagation`
in `EventContract` and leaving only usages of `stopPropagation = true`
for `EventContractMultiContainer`.

When `cleanUp` is called `containerManager` is set to null. Currently
the `EventContract` API assumes that users know not to call further
methods on `EventContract`, but this lead to a bug in a downstream app,
b/333750059. So instead, this makes a defensive check to make sure it's
not null.

This commit integrates the JSA contract binary into the NPM package and ensures its accessibility by including it in the package exports. This adjustment is essential for enabling Angular CLI to effectively access and inject the script. Additionally, sourcemaps are removed from the minified bundle to prevent their inclusion in the HTML page.

Right now this binary sits at 9.5kb. Additional changes to the library will
be done to reduce the binary size, such as converting event_type from
an enum to an object, and other code size reductions.

1: Remove USE_EVENT_PATH, which has no users.
2: Create a new `EventActionInfo` object to represent actions, update all `EventInfoWrapper` users.
3: Fix `stopPropagation` behavior in JSAction Dispatcher - it should only `stopPropagation` if an action is found, which is only known during normal dispatch rather than global.

This commit changes the approach to the reactive node representing query
results: instead of creating a custom node type we can use a computed -
the main change to get there is representing dirty change notification as
a signal (a counter updated every time a query changes its dirty status).
This change is dictated by simplification (we can avoid creation of a custom
signal type) as well as fixes to the multiple issues not covered by the
initial implementation:
- assuring referential stability of results (ex.: the same array instance
returned from child queries until results change);
- per-view results collection to avoid a situation where accessing query
results during view creation would return partial / inconsistent results;
- proper refresh of query results for both live and non-connected consumers.
All the above cases are covered by the additional tests in this commit.

Follow-up to #54002 that:
* Remove the `toString` implementation from the `primitives`.
* Guards the `toString` with `ngDevMode` and prints out the value.
PR Close#54079
Since signals are function, currently stringifying them reveals the implementation of the function. This can lead to confusion since it contains internal implementation details. These changes add static `toString` function to address the issue.
**Note:** it's tempting to have `toString` output the actual value of the signal, but that would encourage users not to call the function which will be problematic in the long run. That's why these changes are using a static string instead.
PR Close#54002
For the implementation of input signals, we want to extend the signal
primitive. The basic methods exposed here are not suitable as we'd like
to store additional metadata on the reactive node, and also have a
custom getter (for required inputs and throwing).
To enable this, one small piece was missing. This commit exposes it and
also improves type safety, now that `SignalNode` is typed properly after
the previous commit.
PR Close#53571
The `SignalNode` interface, describing the reactive node for a `Signal`,
seemingly exposes the `SIGNAL` symbol as a class member. This is not
true as the `SIGNAL` reactive node only exists on the getter function,
as a way to retrieve the signal underlying reactive node.
This commit fixes this, enabling improved type-safety later, in a
follow-up commit where `SIGNAL_NODE` can now be typed to match the
`SignalNode` interface (unlike now where it's typed as just `object`).

The PR https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/52465 introduced short-circuit for
the signal equality invocation - with the reasoning that the equality function
should never return false for arguments with the same references. In practice it
turned out that it is rather surprising and the subsequent PR
https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/52532 added a warning when the short-circuit
was taking priority over the equality function.
Still, the presence of the short-circuit prevents people from mutating objects in
place and based on https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/52735 this is a common
and desired scenario. This change removes the short-circuit altogether and thus
fixes the mentioned issue.
We do recognize that removing short-circuit exposes developers to the potentially
surprising logic where mutated in-place change won't be propagated throug the
reactivity graph (due to the deault equality function). But we assume that this might
be less surprising / more desirable as compared to the short-circuit logic.
Fixes#52735

This commit updates the reactive consumer used for `LView`s to be shared
between a component and its embedded views. This allows us to use the
consumer flag directly for a dirty indicator rather than needing to
find a component view for updating its flags.
In the future, this will also allow us to effectively poll producers to see if
they really changed before refreshing a view.
PR Close#52476
This change skips signal equality calls on set / update when the
two values (current and the new one) are referentially identical.
The assumption is that equality function implementation should
never return false for 2 values that are the same (according to
the Object.is logic).
PR Close#52465
This commit adds a global epoch to the reactive graph, which can optimize
non-live reads.
When a non-live read occurs, a computed must poll its dependencies to check
if they've changed, and this operation is transitive and not cacheable.
Since non-live computeds don't receive dirty notifications, they're forced
to assume potential dirtiness on each and every read.
Using a global epoch, we can add an important optimization: if *no* signals
have been set globally since the last time it polled its dependencies, then
we *can* assume a clean state. This significantly improves performance of
large unwatched graphs when repeatedly reading values.
PR Close#52420
This change removes the `mutate` method from the `WritableSignal` interface and
completely drops it from the public API surface.
The initial API proposal for Angular signals included the mutate method, allowing
in-place modification of JS objects, without changing their references (identity).
This was based on the reasoning that identity change on modification is not necessary
as we can send the “modified” notification through the signals graph.
Unfortunately the signal-specific change notification is lost as soon as we read
signal value outside of a reactive context (outside of a reactive graph).
In other words - any code outside of the Angular signals library can’t know
that an object is modified.
Secondly, to make the mutate method work, we’ve defaulted the signal value equality function
to the one that considers non-primitive values as always different.
This is unfortunate for people working with immutable data structures
(this is notably the case for the popular state management libraries)
as the default equality function de-optimizes memoization in computed,
making the application less performant.
Given the above reasons we prefer to remove the mutate method in the signals library -
at least for now. There are just too many sharp edges and tradeoffs that we don’t fully
understand yet.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The `mutate` method was removed from the `WritableSignal` interface and completely
dropped from the public API surface. As an alternative please use the update method and
make immutable changes to the object.
Example before:
```typescript
items.mutate(itemsArray => itemsArray.push(newItem));
```
Example after:
```typescript
items.update(itemsArray => [itemsArray, …newItem]);
```
