refactor(compiler): Remove NullAstVisitor and visitAstChildren (#35619)
This commit removes the `NullAstVisitor` and `visitAstChildren` exported from `packages/compiler/src/expression_parser/ast.ts` because they contain duplicate and buggy implementation, and their use cases could be sufficiently covered by `RecursiveAstVisitor` if the latter implements the `visit` method. This use case is only needed in the language service. With this change, any visitor that extends `RecursiveAstVisitor` could just define their own `visit` function and the parent class will behave correctly. A bit of historical context: In language service, we need a way to tranverse the expression AST in a selective manner based on where the user's cursor is. This means we need a "filtering" function to decide which node to visit and which node to not visit. Instead of refactoring `RecursiveAstVisitor` to support this, `visitAstChildren` was created. `visitAstChildren` duplicates the implementation of `RecursiveAstVisitor`, but introduced some bugs along the way. For example, in `visitKeyedWrite`, it visits ``` obj -> key -> obj ``` instead of ``` obj -> key -> value ``` Moreover, because of the following line ``` visitor.visit && visitor.visit(ast, context) || ast.visit(visitor, context); ``` `visitAstChildren` visits every node *twice*.
