We removed display of the Git SHA in Angular DevTools in https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/55694, so there is no longer a need to stamp release builds in Chrome or Firefox.
I opted to leave a `--config snapshot-build-firefox` option as a no-op which a reader could follow to a comment explaining exactly _why_ we can't stamp Firefox releases. This should hopefully make it less likely that we forget and attempt to re-add this feature in the future only to encounter the same release problems.

This commit adds support for extracting initializer API functions.
Initialixer API functions are functions conceptually that can are
intended to be used as class member initializers.
Angular started introducing a few of these for the new signal
APIs, like `input`, `model` or signal-based queries.
These APIs are currently confusingly represented in the API docs because
the API extraction:
- does not properly account for call signatures of interfaces
- does not expose information about sub-property objects and call
signatures (e.g. `input.required`)
- the docs rendering syntax highlighting is too bloated and confusing
with all types being included.
This commit adds support for initializer API functions, namely two
variants:
- interface-based initializer APIs. e.g. `export const input:
InputFunction`- which is a pattern for `input` and `input.required`.
- function-based simpler initializer APIs with overloads. e.g.
`contentChildren` has many signatures but doesn't need to be an
interface as there are no sub-property call signatures.

Updates the type-check block generation code (also for inline type check
blocks) to use the new import manager.
This is now a requirement because the translator utilities from the
reference emit environment expect an import manager that follows the
new contract established via `ImportGenerator<TFile, TExpression>`.
For type check files, we can simply print new imports as we don't expect
existing imports to be updated. That is because type check files do not
have any _original_ source files (or in practice— those are empty).
For type check blocks inline, or constructors, imports _may_ be re-used.
This is great as it helps fixing some incrementality bugs that we were
seeing in the type check code. That is, sometimes the type check block
code may generate imports conditionally for e.g. `TemplateRef`, or
animations. Those then **prevent** incremental re-use if TCB code
switches between those continously. We tried to account for that with
signal inputs by always pre-generating such imports. This fixed the
issue for type-check files, but for inline type check blocks this is
different as we would introduce new imports in user code that would then
be changed back in subsequential edit iterations. See:
https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/53521#pullrequestreview-1778130879.
In practice, the assumption was that we would be fine since user code is
most likely containing imports to `@angular/core` already. That is a
true assumption, but unfortunately it doesn't help with incremental
re-use because TypeScript's structural change detection does not dedupe
and expects 1:1 exact imports from their old source files.
https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/pull/56845
To improve incremental re-use for the type check integration, we should
re-use original source file imports when possible. This commit enables
this.
To update imports and execute inline operations, we are now uisng
`magic-string` (which is then bundled) as it simplifies the string
manipulatuons.
