This commit makes the static flag on @ViewChild and @ContentChild required.
BREAKING CHANGE:
In Angular version 8, it's required that all @ViewChild and @ContentChild
queries have a 'static' flag specifying whether the query is 'static' or
'dynamic'. The compiler previously sorted queries automatically, but in
8.0 developers are required to explicitly specify which behavior is wanted.
This is a temporary requirement as part of a migration; see
https://angular.io/guide/static-query-migration for more details.
@ViewChildren and @ContentChildren queries are always dynamic, and so are
unaffected.

Prior to this change a component was considered unresolved (i.e. having dynamic resources that should be loaded, like external template or stylesheets) even if template override was provided as an empty string (for example, via TestBed.overrideTemplateUsingTestingModule call). This commit fixes the condition that previously treated empty string as an absent template value.

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
So back to the frog eyes we go.

Currently in Ivy `NgModule` registration happens when the class is declared, however this is inconsistent with ViewEngine and requires extra generated code. These changes remove the generated code for `registerModuleFactory`, pass the id through to the `ngModuleDef` and do the module registration inside `NgModuleFactory.create`.
This PR resolves FW-1285.

Fixes view and content queries not being inherited in Ivy, if the base class hasn't been annotated with an Angular decorator (e.g. `Component` or `Directive`).
Also reworks the way the `ngBaseDef` is created so that it is added at the same point as the queries, rather than inside of the `Input` and `Output` decorators.
This PR partially resolves FW-1275. Support for host bindings will be added in a follow-up, because this PR is somewhat large as it is.

Prior to this change, we always recompile all Components/Directives/Pipes even if they were AOT-compiled and had no overrides. This is causing problems in case we try to recompile a Component with "templateUrl" or "styleUrls" (which were already resolved in case of AOT) and generally this unnecessary work that TestBed was doing is not required. This commit adds extra logic to check whether a Component/Directive/Pipe already have compiled NG def (like ngComponentDef) and whether there are no overrides present - in this case recompilation is skipped. Recompilation is also skipped in case a Component/Directive has only Provider overrides - in this situation providers resolver function is patched to reflect overrides. Provider overrides are very common in g3, thus this code path ensures no full recompilation.

Previously, ngtsc would resolve forward references while evaluating the
bootstrap, declaration, imports, and exports fields of NgModule types.
However, when generating the resulting ngModuleDef, the forward nature of
these references was not taken into consideration, and so the generated JS
code would incorrectly reference types not yet declared.
This commit fixes this issue by introducing function closures in the
NgModuleDef type, similarly to how NgComponentDef uses them for forward
declarations of its directives and pipes arrays. ngtsc will then generate
closures when required, and the runtime will unwrap them if present.

Currently with ViewEngine, if someone runs the platform's
`bootstrapModule` method in order to boostrap a module in
JIT mode, external component resources are properly resolved
*automatically*.
Currently with Ivy, the developer would need to manually call
`resolveComponentResources` in order to asynchronously fetch
the determined external component resources. In order to make
this backwards compatible with ViewEngine, and also since
platforms can already specify a `ResourceLoader` compiler
provider, we need to automatically resolve all external
component resources on module bootstrap.
--
Since the `ResourceLoader` is part of the `@angular/compiler`,
because ViewEngine performed the factory creation in the compiler,
we can't access the `ResourceLoader` token from within core.
In order to workaround this without introducing a breaking change,
we just proxy the `ResourceLoader` token to `core` through the
compiler facade. In the future, we should be able to move the
`ResourceLoader` to core when ViewEngine code no longer exists in
the `@angular/compiler`.
PR Close#29083
Prior to this commit, the timing of `ViewChild`/`ContentChild` query
resolution depended on the results of each query. If any results
for a particular query were nested inside embedded views (e.g.
*ngIfs), that query would be resolved after change detection ran.
Otherwise, the query would be resolved as soon as nodes were created.
This inconsistency in resolution timing had the potential to cause
confusion because query results would sometimes be available in
ngOnInit, but sometimes wouldn't be available until ngAfterContentInit
or ngAfterViewInit. Code depending on a query result could suddenly
stop working as soon as an *ngIf or an *ngFor was added to the template.
With this commit, users can dictate when they want a particular
`ViewChild` or `ContentChild` query to be resolved with the `static`
flag. For example, one can mark a particular query as `static: false`
to ensure change detection always runs before its results are set:
```ts
@ContentChild('foo', {static: false}) foo !: ElementRef;
```
This means that even if there isn't a query result wrapped in an
*ngIf or an *ngFor now, adding one to the template later won't change
the timing of the query resolution and potentially break your component.
Similarly, if you know that your query needs to be resolved earlier
(e.g. you need results in an ngOnInit hook), you can mark it as
`static: true`.
```ts
@ViewChild(TemplateRef, {static: true}) foo !: TemplateRef;
```
Note: this means that your component will not support *ngIf results.
If you do not supply a `static` option when creating your `ViewChild` or
`ContentChild` query, the default query resolution timing will kick in.
Note: This new option only applies to `ViewChild` and `ContentChild`
queries, not `ViewChildren` or `ContentChildren` queries, as those types
already resolve after CD runs.

Accounts for schemas in when validating properties in Ivy.
This PR resolves FW-819.
A couple of notes:
* I had to rework the test slightly, in order to have it fail when we expect it to. The one in master is passing since Ivy's validation runs during the update phase, rather than creation.
* I had to deviate from the design in FW-819 and not add an `enableSchema` instruction, because the schema is part of the `NgModule` scope, however the scope is only assigned to a component once all of the module's declarations have been resolved and some of them can be async. Instead, I opted to have the `schemas` on the component definition.

When we resolve a component `templateUrl` we copy the contents of the
resolved template file into the `template` property.
Previously we would then remove the `templateUrl` to indicate that
the component has been resolved. But this meant that we no longer had
access to the URL of the original template file. This is essential for
diagnostics messages about the template compilation.
Now the existence of the `template` property overrides the existence of
`templateUrl`, which allows us to keep the `templateUrl` property.

TestBed.compileComponents has always been an async API. However,
ViewEngine tolerated using this API in a synchronous manner if the
components declared in the testing module did not have any async
resources (templateUrl, styleUrls). This change makes the ivy TestBed
mirror this tolerance by configuring such components synchronously.

The implementation of the `compileComponents` method for `TestBedRender3` was missing.
We now pass each component through `resolveComponentResources` when `TestBed.compileComponents` is called so that `templateUrl` and `styleUrls` can be resolved asynchronously and used once `TestBed.createComponent` is called.
The component's metadata are overriden in `TestBed` instead of mutating the original metadata like this is the case outside of TestBed. The reason for that is that we need to ensure that we didn't mutate anything so that the following tests can run with the same original metadata, otherwise we it could trigger or hide some errors.

`NgModule` requires that `Component`s/`Directive`s/`Pipe`s are listed in
declarations, and that each `Component`s/`Directive`s/`Pipe` is declared
in exactly one `NgModule`. This change adds runtime checks to ensure
that these sementics are true at runtime.
There will need to be seperate set of checks for the AoT path of the
codebase to verify that same set of semantics hold. Due to current
design there does not seem to be an easy way to share the two checks
because JIT deal with references where as AoT deals with AST nodes.

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.

This fixes an issue where a value would hide the type.
```
export interface Foo {
someMethod(): void;
}
export const Foo: Function = ...;
```
In the above example the `Foo` constant will hide the `interface Foo` symbol.
This change properly saves the interface in addition to the type.

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.

Previously in Ivy, metadata for directives/components/modules/etc was
carried in .d.ts files inside type information encoded on the
DirectiveDef, ComponentDef, NgModuleDef, etc types of Ivy definition
fields. This works well, but has the side effect of complicating Ivy's
runtime code as these extra generic type parameters had to be specified
as <any> throughout the codebase. *DefInternal types were introduced
previously to mitigate this issue, but that's the wrong way to solve
the problem.
This commit returns *Def types to their original form, with no metadata
attached. Instead, new *DefWithMeta types are introduced that alias the
plain definition types and add extra generic parameters. This way the
only code that needs to deal with the extra metadata parameters is the
compiler code that reads and writes them - the existence of this metadata
is transparent to the runtime, as it should be.

Provides a runtime and compile time switch for ivy including
`ApplicationRef.bootstrapModule`.
This is done by naming the symbols such that `ngcc` (angular
Compatibility compiler) can rename symbols in such a way that running
`ngcc` command will switch the `@angular/core` module from `legacy` to
`ivy` mode.
This is done as follows:
```
const someToken__PRE_NGCC__ = ‘legacy mode’;
const someToken__POST_NGCC__ = ‘ivy mode’;
export someSymbol = someToken__PRE_NGCC__;
```
The `ngcc` will search for any token which ends with `__PRE_NGCC__`
and replace it with `__POST_NGCC__`. This allows the `@angular/core`
package to be rewritten to ivy mode post `ngcc` execution.
