Kristiyan Kostadinov eee620aa00 refactor(compiler): rework defer block analysis (#54700)
Currently we have the `deferrableDeclToImportDecl`, `deferBlocks`, `deferrableTypes` and `deferBlockDepsEmitMode` fields on the `R3ComponentMetadata` which is incorrect, because the interface is used both for JIT and AOT mode even though the information for those fields is AOT-specific. It will be problematic for partial compilation since the runtime will have a reference to the dependency loading function, but will not be able to provide any of the other information.

These changes make the following refactors:
1. It changes the defer-related information in `R3ComponentMetadata` to include only references to dependency functions which can be provided both in JIT and AOT.
2. Moves the AOT-specific defer analysis into the `ComponentResolutionData`.
3. Moves the construction the defer dependency function into the compilation phase of the `ComponentDecoratorHandler`.
4. Drops support for defer blocks from the `TemplateDefinitionBuilder`. This allows us to clean up some TDB-specific code and shouldn't have an effect on users since the TDB isn't used anymore.

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
