Payam Valadkhan a15a56cb5d refactor(compiler): add a new interface for NgModule metadata to t rebase be used in local compilation mode (#50577)
The new interface is discrete-unioned with the existing interface to cover the cases for local and global (i.e., full and partial) compilation modes.

This change of interface required some adjustmeents cross repo which explains the changes made to other files.

Angular Linker

This package contains a FileLinker and supporting code to be able to "link" partial declarations of components, directives, etc in libraries to produce the full definitions.

The partial declaration format allows library packages to be published to npm without exposing the underlying Ivy instructions.

The tooling here allows application build tools (e.g. CLI) to produce fully compiled components, directives, etc at the point when the application is bundled. These linked files can be cached outside node_modules so it does not suffer from problems of mutating packages in node_modules.

Generally this tooling will be wrapped in a transpiler specific plugin, such as the provided Babel plugin.

Unit Testing

The unit tests are built and run using Bazel:

yarn bazel test //packages/compiler-cli/linker/test
