feat(ivy): verify whether TypeScript version is supported (#33377)

During the creation of an Angular program in the compiler, a check is
done to verify whether the version of TypeScript is considered
supported, producing an error if it is not. This check was missing in
the Ivy compiler, so users may have ended up running an unsupported
TypeScript version inadvertently.

Resolves FW-1643
