This change changes the priority order of static styling.
Current priority:
```
(least priority)
- Static
- Component
- Directives
- Template
- Dynamic Binding
- Component
- Map/Interpolation
- Property
- Directives
- Map/Interpolation
- Property
- Template
- Map/Interpolation
- Property
(highest priority)
```
The issue with the above priority is this use case:
```
<div style="color: red;" directive-which-sets-color-blue>
```
In the above case the directive will win and the resulting color will be `blue`. However a small change of adding interpolation to the example like so. (Style interpolation is coming in https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/34202)
```
<div style="color: red; width: {{exp}}px" directive-which-sets-color-blue>
```
Changes the priority from static binding to interpolated binding which means now the resulting color is `red`. It is very surprising that adding an unrelated interpolation and style can change the `color` which was not changed. To fix that we need to make sure that the static values are associated with priority of the source (directive or template) where they were declared. The new resulting priority is:
```
(least priority)
- Component
- Static
- Map/Interpolation
- Property
- Directives
- Static
- Map/Interpolation
- Property
- Template
- Static
- Map/Interpolation
- Property
(highest priority)
```

We had some logic for generating and passing in the `elIndex` parameter into the `hostBindings` function, but it wasn't actually being used for anything. The only place left that had a reference to it was the `StylingBuilder` and it only stored it without referencing it again.

Previously we would write to class/style as strings `element.className` and `element.style.cssText`. Turns out that approach is good for initial render but not good for updates. Updates using this approach are problematic because we have to check to see if there was an out of bound write to style and than perform reconciliation. This also requires the browser to bring up CSS parser which is expensive.
Another problem with old approach is that we had to queue the DOM writes and flush them twice. Once on element advance instruction and once in `hostBindings`. The double flushing is expensive but it also means that a directive can observe that styles are not yet written (they are written after directive executes.)
The new approach uses `element.classList.add/remove` and `element.style.setProperty/removeProperty` API for updates only (it continues to use `element.className` and `element.style.cssText` for initial render as it is cheaper.) The other change is that the styling changes are applied immediately (no queueing). This means that it is the instruction which computes priority. In some circumstances it may result in intermediate writes which are than overwritten with new value. (This should be rare)
Overall this change deletes most of the previous code and replaces it with new simplified implement. The simplification results in code savings.

NOTE: This change must be reverted with previous deletes so that it code remains in build-able state.
This change deletes old styling code and replaces it with a simplified styling algorithm.
The mental model for the new algorithm is:
- Create a linked list of styling bindings in the order of priority. All styling bindings ere executed in compiled order and than a linked list of bindings is created in priority order.
- Flush the style bindings at the end of `advance()` instruction. This implies that there are two flush events. One at the end of template `advance` instruction in the template. Second one at the end of `hostBindings` `advance` instruction when processing host bindings (if any).
- Each binding instructions effectively updates the string to represent the string at that location. Because most of the bindings are additive, this is a cheap strategy in most cases. In rare cases the strategy requires removing tokens from the styling up to this point. (We expect that to be rare case)S Because, the bindings are presorted in the order of priority, it is safe to resume the processing of the concatenated string from the last change binding.

The change removes the fact that `NgStyle`/`NgClass` is special and colaborates with the `[style]`/`[class]` to merge its styles. By reverting to old behavior we have better backwards compatiblity since it is no longer treated special and simply overwrites the styles (same as VE)

The `computeStaticStyling` will be used for computing static styling value during `firstCreatePass`.
The function takes into account static styling from the template as well as from the host bindings. The host bindings need to be merged in front of the template so that they have the correct priority.

Parsing styling is now simplified to be used like so:
```
for (let i = parseStyle(text); i <= 0; i = parseStyleNext(text, i)) {
const key = getLastParsedKey();
const value = getLastParsedValue();
...
}
```
This change makes it easier to invoke the parser from other locations in the system without paying the cost of creating and iterating over `Map` of styles.

This change moves information from instructions to declarative position:
- `ɵɵallocHostVars(vars)` => `DirectiveDef.hostVars`
- `ɵɵelementHostAttrs(attrs)` => `DirectiveDef.hostAttrs`
When merging directives it is necessary to know about `hostVars` and `hostAttrs`. Before this change the information was stored in the `hostBindings` function. This was problematic, because in order to get to the information the `hostBindings` would have to be executed. In order for `hostBindings` to be executed the directives would have to be instantiated. This means that the directive instantiation would happen before we had knowledge about the `hostAttrs` and as a result the directive could observe in the constructor that not all of the `hostAttrs` have been applied. This further complicates the runtime as we have to apply `hostAttrs` in parts over many invocations.
`ɵɵallocHostVars` was unnecessarily complicated because it would have to update the `LView` (and Blueprint) while existing directives are already executing. By moving it out of `hostBindings` function we can access it statically and we can create correct `LView` (and Blueprint) in a single pass.
This change only changes how the instructions are generated, but does not change the runtime much. (We cheat by emulating the old behavior by calling `ɵɵallocHostVars` and `ɵɵelementHostAttrs`) Subsequent change will refactor the runtime to take advantage of the static information.

This adds `insertTStyleValue` but does not hook it up to anything yet.
The purpose of this function is to create a linked-list of styling
related bindings. The bindings can be traversed during flush.
The linked list also keeps track of duplicates. This is important
for binding to know if it needs to check other styles for reconciliation.

This change introduces class/style reconciliation algorithm for DOM elements.
NOTE: The code is not yet hooked up, it will be used by future style algorithm.
Background:
Styling algorithm currently has [two paths](https://hackmd.io/@5zDGNGArSxiHhgvxRGrg-g/rycZk3N5S)
when computing how the style should be rendered.
1. A direct path which concatenates styling and uses `elemnent.className`/`element.style.cssText` and
2. A merge path which uses internal data structures and uses `element.classList.add/remove`/`element.style[property]`.
The situation is confusing and hard to follow/maintain. So a future PR will remove the merge-path and do everything with
direct-path. This however breaks when some other code adds class or style to the element without Angular's knowledge.
If this happens instead of switching from direct-path to merge-path algorithm, this change provides a different mental model
whereby we always do `direct-path` but the code which writes to the DOM detects the situation and reconciles the out of bound write.
The reconciliation process is as follows:
1. Detect that no one has modified `className`/`cssText` and if so just write directly (fast path).
2. If out of bounds write did occur, switch from writing using `className`/`cssText` to `element.classList.add/remove`/`element.style[property]`.
This does require that the write function computes the difference between the previous Angular expected state and current Angular state.
(This requires a parser. The advantage of having a parser is that we can support `style="width: {{exp}}px" kind of bindings.`)
Compute the diff and apply it in non destructive way using `element.classList.add/remove`/`element.style[property]`
Properties of approach:
- If no out of bounds style modification:
- Very fast code path: Just concatenate string in right order and write them to DOM.
- Class list order is preserved
- If out of bounds style modification detected:
- Penalty for parsing
- Switch to non destructive modification: `element.classList.add/remove`/`element.style[property]`
- Switch to alphabetical way of setting classes.

Fixes Ivy detecting changes inside child embedded views, even though they're detached.
Note that there's on subtlety here: I made the changes inside `refreshDynamicEmbeddedViews` rather than `refreshView`, because we support detecting changes on a detached view (evidenced by a couple of unit tests), but only if it's triggered directly from the view's `ChangeDetectorRef`, however we shouldn't be detecting changes in the detached child view when something happens in the parent.

A while ago we made a pass through all instructions to make sure that none of them call directly into other instructions, however it seems like missed the `pipeBind*` since they still call into the pure functions. The result is that we have some unnecessary duplicated accesses of global state like `getLView` which are called twice in a row with nothing changing.
These changes move the common functionality into a shared file and make the pipe instructions call into them with the global state instead.

Follow-up from [this discussion](https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/33419#discussion_r339296216). In Ivy we don't use the schema to validate tag names, but instead we use feature detection to figure out whether an element is supported. While this should generally be more accurate, it'll also end up throwing for some more innocent cases. E.g. now Ivy throws an error for `main` elements in IE which is accurate since IE doesn't support the element, but is annoying since there is no functionality attached.
These changes switch to logging a warning instead, similarly to what we're doing for unknown properties.

The main logic of the `InheritDefinitionFeature` is to go through the prototype chain of a given Component and merge all Angular-specific information onto that Component def. The problem happens in case there is a Component in a hierarchy that also contains the `InheritDefinitionFeature` (i.e. it extends some other Component), so it inherits all Angular-specific information from its super class. As a result, the root Component may end up having duplicate information inherited from different Components in hierarchy.
Let's consider the following structure: `GrandChild` extends `Child` that extends `Base` and the `Base` class has a `HostListener`. In this scenario `GrandChild` and `Child` will have `InheritDefinitionFeature` included into the `features` list. The processing will happend in the following order:
- `Child` inherits `HostListener` from the `Base` class
- `GrandChild` inherits `HostListener` from the `Child` class
- since `Child` has a parent, `GrandChild` also inherits from the `Base` class
The result is that the `GrandChild` def has duplicated host listener, which is not correct.
This commit introduces additional logic that checks whether we came across a def that has `InheritDefinitionFeature` feature (which means that this def already inherited information from its super classes). If that's the case, we skip further fields-related inheritance logic, but keep going though the prototype chain to look for super classes that contain other features (like NgOnChanges), that we need to invoke for a given Component def.

TypeScript 3.7 flags `if` conditions that implicitly coerce a function/method definition. While checking for the `template` presence on a def (actually checking whether we work with Component) in `saveNameToExportMap`, the `if` condition had implicit type coercion. This commit updates the condition to use the `isComponentDef` function (that checks `def.template` against `null` internally) to avoid compilation errors with TypeScript 3.7.

Occasionally a factory function needs to be generated for an "invalid"
constructor (one with parameters types which aren't injectable). Typically
this happens in JIT mode where understanding of parameters cannot be done in
the same "up-front" way that the AOT compiler can.
This commit changes the JIT compiler to generate a new `invalidFactoryDep`
call for each invalid parameter. This instruction will error at runtime if
called, indicating both the index of the invalid parameter as well as (via
the stack trace) the factory function which was generated for the type being
constructed.

Includes a few minor performance improvements:
* In the `nextContext` instruction we assign a new LView to the `LFrame.contextLView` and then we immediately look it up to get its context. We don't need to do that since we know the view that was assigned already.
* Removes the default value for the `level` parameter of `nextContextImpl` because it generates more code in es5 and is internal-only.
* Removes the default parameter from `setActiveHostElement` since it generates extra code and it's an internal function.
* Makes a check in `setElementExitFn` more strict since we're guaranteed for the value to match the type.

Prior to this commit, the unknown element can happen twice for AOT-compiled components: once during compilation and once again at runtime. Due to the fact that `schemas` information is not present on Component and NgModule defs after AOT compilation, the second check (at runtime) may fail, even though the same check was successful at compile time. This commit updates the code to avoid the second check for AOT-compiled components by checking whether `schemas` information is present in a logic that executes the unknown element check.

When inserting a `viewRef` it is possible to not provide
an `index`, which is regarded as appending to the end of
the container.
If the `viewRef` already exists in the container, then
this results in a move. But there was a fault in the logic
that computed where to insert the `viewRef` that did not
account for the fact that the `viewRef` was already in
the container, so the insertion `index` was outside the
bounds of the array.
