This commit removes the View Engine runtime. Itself, this change is
relatively straightforward, but it represents the final step in a multi-year
journey. It's only possible due to the hard work of many current and former
team members and collaborators, who are too numerous to list here.

This commit removes the `WrappedValue` public API from `@angular/core`
which was deprecated in Angular 10 without replacement.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The `WrappedValue` class can no longer be imported from `@angular/core`,
which may result in compile errors or failures at runtime if outdated
libraries are used that are still using `WrappedValue`. The usage of
`WrappedValue` should be removed as no replacement is available.

With Ivy it's possible to create a `ComponentFactory` instance based on the generated Component def, thus the `ViewContainerRef.createComponent` can accept a Component instance and create a factory inside, rather than requiring additional complexity of creating a ComponentFactory outside (by invoking `ComponentFactoryResolver`).
This should simplify the API that is used for creating components dynamically.
DEPRECATION:
Angular no longer requires component factories to dynamically create components. The factory-based signature of the `ViewContainerRef.createComponent` function is deprecated in favor of a different signature that allows passing component classes instead.

Fixes an error that will be thrown if `DebugRenderer2.destroyNode` is called with a node that has already been destroyed. The error happened, because we had a non-null assertion, even though the value can be null.
Note that this fix applies only to ViewEngine, because Ivy doesn't provide the `DebugRenderer2`. I decided to resolve it, because it fix is straightforward and this error has been showing up in our logs for a long time now, making actual errors harder to find.

The other similar interfaces were renamed in https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/41119,

The codebase currently contains several `EMPTY_ARRAY` constants,
and they can end up in the bundle of an application.
A recent commit 6fbe219 tipped us off
as it introduced several `noop` occurrences in the golden symbol files.
After investigating with @petebacondarwin,
we decided to remove the duplicated symbols.
This probably shaves only a few bytes,
but this commit removes the duplicated functions,
by always using the one in `core/src/utils/empty`.

Currently `EmbeddedViewRef.context` is read-only which means that the only way to update
it is to mutate the object which can lead to some undesirable outcomes if the template

These changes make the property writeable since there doesn't appear to be a specific
reason why it was readonly to begin with.

Previous implementation would fire changes `QueryList.changes.subscribe`
whenever the `QueryList` was recomputed. This resulted in artificially
high number of change notifications, as it is possible that recomputing
`QueryList` results in the same list. When the `QueryList` gets recomputed
is an implementation detail and it should not be the thing which determines
how often change event should fire.
This change introduces a new `emitDistinctChangesOnly` option for
`ContentChildren` and `ViewChildren`.
```
export class QueryCompWithStrictChangeEmitParent {
@ContentChildren('foo', {
// This option will become the default in the future
emitDistinctChangesOnly: true,
})
foos!: QueryList<any>;

Escape the content of the strings so that it can be safely inserted into a comment node.
The issue is that HTML does not specify any way to escape comment end text inside the comment.
`<!-- The way you close a comment is with "-->". -->`. Above the `"-->"` is meant to be text
not an end to the comment. This can be created programmatically through DOM APIs.
```
div.innerHTML = div.innerHTML
```
One would expect that the above code would be safe to do, but it turns out that because comment
text is not escaped, the comment may contain text which will prematurely close the comment
opening up the application for XSS attack. (In SSR we programmatically create comment nodes which
may contain such text and expect them to be safe.)
This function escapes the comment text by looking for the closing char sequence `-->` and replace
it with `-_-_>` where the `_` is a zero width space `\u200B`. The result is that if a comment
contains `-->` text it will render normally but it will not cause the HTML parser to close the
comment.

Remove `looseIdentical` implementation and instead use the ES2015 `Object.is` in its place.
They behave exactly the same way except for `+0`/`-0`.
`looseIdentical(+0, -0)` => `true`
`Object.is(+0, -0)` => `false`
Other than the difference noted above, this is not be a breaking change because:
1. `looseIdentical` is a private API
2. ES2015 is listed as a mandatory polyfill in the [browser support
guide](https://angular.io/guide/browser-support#mandatory-polyfills)
3. Also note that `Ivy` already uses `Object.is` in `bindingUpdated`.

In VE the `Sanitizer` is always available in `BrowserModule` because the VE retrieves it using injection.
In Ivy the injection is optional and we have instructions instead of component definition arrays. The implication of this is that in Ivy the instructions can pull in the sanitizer only when they are working with a property which is known to be unsafe. Because the Injection is optional this works even if no Sanitizer is present. So in Ivy we first use the sanitizer which is pulled in by the instruction, unless one is available through the `Injector` then we use that one instead.
This PR does few things:
1) It makes `Sanitizer` optional in Ivy.
2) It makes `DomSanitizer` tree shakable.
3) It aligns the semantics of Ivy `Sanitizer` with that of the Ivy sanitization rules.
4) It refactors `DomSanitizer` to use same functions as Ivy sanitization for consistency.

There is an encoding issue with using delta `Δ`, where the browser will attempt to detect the file encoding if the character set is not explicitly declared on a `<script/>` tag, and Chrome will find the `Δ` character and decide it is window-1252 encoding, which misinterprets the `Δ` character to be some other character that is not a valid JS identifier character

Ivy uses R3Injector, but we are currently pulling in both the StaticInjector
(View Engine injector) and the R3Injector when running with Ivy. This commit
adds an ivy switch so calling Injector.create() pulls in the correct
implementation of the injector depending on whether you are using VE or Ivy.
This saves us about 3KB in the bundle.

With dts bundles, `core.d.ts` will include an `EventListener` class as it's used in 303eae918d/packages/core/src/debug/debug_node.ts (L32)
This will conflict with the DOM EventListener, as anything in `core.d.ts` which is using the DOM EventListener will fallback in using the one defined in the same module and hence build will fail because their implementation is different.
With this change, we rename the local `EventListener` to `DebugEventListener`, the later one is non exported.

When testing whether `value` is an object, use the ideal sequence of
strictly not equal to `null` followed by `typeof value === 'object'`
consistently. Specifically there's no point in using double equal with
`null` since `undefined` is ruled out by the `typeof` check.
Also avoid the unnecessary ToBoolean check on `value.ngOnDestroy` in
`hasOnDestroy()`, since the `typeof value.ngOnDestroy === 'function'`
will only let closures pass and all closures are truish (with the
notable exception of `document.all`, but that shouldn't be relevant
for the `ngOnDestroy` hook).

This change is a prerequasity for a later change which will turn the
'di' into its own bazel package. In order to do that we have to:
- have `Injector` type be importable by Ivy. This means that we need
to create `Injector` as a pure type in `interface` folder which is
already a bazel package which Ivy can depend on.
- Remove the dependency of `class Injector` on Ivy so that it can be
compiled in isolation. We do that by using `-1` as special value for
`__NG_ELEMENT_ID__` which tells the Ivy `NodeInjector` than
`Injector` is being requested.

BREAKING CHANGE:
The public API for `DebugNode` was accidentally too broad. This change removes
1. Public constructor. Since `DebugNode` is a way for Angular to communicate information
on to the developer there is no reason why the developer should ever need to
Instantiate the `DebugNode`
2. We are also removing `removeChild`, `addChild`, `insertBefore`, and `insertChildAfter`.
All of these methods are used by Angular to constructor the correct `DebugNode` tree.
There is no reason why the developer should ever be constructing a `DebugNode` tree
And these methods should have never been made public.
3. All properties have been change to `readonly` since `DebugNode` is used by Angular
to communicate to developer and there is no reason why these APIs should be writable.
While technically breaking change we don’t expect anyone to be effected by this change.

Originally, the ivy_switch mechanism used Bazel genrules to conditionally
compile one TS file or another depending on whether ngc or ngtsc was the
selected compiler. This was done because we wanted to avoid importing
certain modules (and thus pulling them into the build) if Ivy was on or
off. This mechanism had a major drawback: ivy_switch became a bottleneck
in the import graph, as it both imports from many places in the codebase
and is imported by many modules in the codebase. This frequently resulted
in cyclic imports which caused issues both with TS and Closure compilation.
It turns out ngcc needs both code paths in the bundle to perform the switch
during its operation anyway, so import switching was later abandoned. This
means that there's no real reason why the ivy_switch mechanism needed to
operate at the Bazel level, and for the ivy_switch file to be a bottleneck.
This commit removes the Bazel-level ivy_switch mechanism, and introduces
an additional TypeScript transform in ngtsc (and the pass-through tsc
compiler used for testing JIT) to perform the same operation that ngcc
does, and flip the switch during ngtsc compilation. This allows the
ivy_switch file to be removed, and the individual switches to be located
directly next to their consumers in the codebase, greatly mitigating the
circular import issues and making the mechanism much easier to use.
As part of this commit, the tag for marking switched variables was changed
from __PRE_NGCC__ to __PRE_R3__, since it's no longer just ngcc which
flips these tags. Most variables were renamed from R3_* to SWITCH_* as well,
since they're referenced mostly in render2 code.
Test strategy: existing test coverage is more than sufficient - if this
didn't work correctly it would break the hello world and todo apps.
