Adds @nocollapse to static properties added by ngcc
iff annotateForClosureCompiler is true.
The Closure Compiler will collapse static properties
into the global namespace. Adding this annotation keeps
the properties attached to their respective object, which
allows them to be referenced via a class's constructor.
The annotation is already added by ngtsc and ngc under the
same option, this commit extends the functionality to ngcc.

In v7 of Angular we removed `tsickle` from the default `ngc` pipeline.
This had the negative potential of breaking ES2015 output and SSR due
to a limitation in TypeScript.
TypeScript by default preserves type information for decorated constructor
parameters when `emitDecoratorMetadata` is enabled. For example,
consider this snippet below:
```
@Directive()
export class MyDirective {
constructor(button: MyButton) {}
}
export class MyButton {}
```
TypeScript would generate metadata for the `MyDirective` class it has
a decorator applied. This metadata would be needed in JIT mode, or
for libraries that provide `MyDirective` through NPM. The metadata would
look as followed:
```
let MyDirective = class MyDir {}
MyDirective = __decorate([
Directive(),
__metadata("design:paramtypes", [MyButton]),
], MyDirective);
let MyButton = class MyButton {}
```
Notice that TypeScript generated calls to `__decorate` and
`__metadata`. These calls are needed so that the Angular compiler
is able to determine whether `MyDirective` is actually an directive,
and what types are needed for dependency injection.
The limitation surfaces in this concrete example because `MyButton`
is declared after the `__metadata(..)` call, while `__metadata`
actually directly references `MyButton`. This is illegal though because
`MyButton` has not been declared at this point. This is due to the
so-called temporal dead zone in JavaScript. Errors like followed will
be reported at runtime when such file/code evaluates:
```
Uncaught ReferenceError: Cannot access 'MyButton' before initialization
```
As noted, this is a TypeScript limitation because ideally TypeScript
shouldn't evaluate `__metadata`/reference `MyButton` immediately.
Instead, it should defer the reference until `MyButton` is actually
declared. This limitation will not be fixed by the TypeScript team
though because it's a limitation as per current design and they will
only revisit this once the tc39 decorator proposal is finalized
(currently stage-2 at time of writing).
Given this wontfix on the TypeScript side, and our heavy reliance on
this metadata in libraries (and for JIT mode), we intend to fix this
from within the Angular compiler by downleveling decorators to static
properties that don't need to evaluate directly. For example:
```
MyDirective.ctorParameters = () => [MyButton];
```
With this snippet above, `MyButton` is not referenced directly. Only
lazily when the Angular runtime needs it. This mitigates the temporal
dead zone issue caused by a limitation in TypeScript's decorator
metadata output. See: https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/27519.
In the past (as noted; before version 7), the Angular compiler by
default used tsickle that already performed this transformation. We
moved the transformation to the CLI for JIT and `ng-packager`, but now
we realize that we can move this all to a single place in the compiler
so that standalone ngc consumers can benefit too, and that we can
disable tsickle in our Bazel `ngc-wrapped` pipeline (that currently
still relies on tsickle to perform this decorator processing).
This transformation also has another positive side-effect of making
Angular application/library code more compatible with server-side
rendering. In principle, TypeScript would also preserve type information
for decorated class members (similar to how it did that for constructor
parameters) at runtime. This becomes an issue when your application
relies on native DOM globals for decorated class member types. e.g.
```
@Input() panelElement: HTMLElement;
```
Your application code would then reference `HTMLElement` directly
whenever the source file is loaded in NodeJS for SSR. `HTMLElement`
does not exist on the server though, so that will become an invalid
reference. One could work around this by providing global mocks for
these DOM symbols, but that doesn't match up with other places where
dependency injection is used for mocking DOM/browser specific symbols.
More context in this issue: #30586. The TL;DR here is that the Angular
compiler does not care about types for these class members, so it won't
ever reference `HTMLElement` at runtime.

`NgCompiler` is the heart of ngtsc and can be used to analyze and compile
Angular programs in a variety of environments. Most of these integrations
rely on `NgProgram` and the creation of an `NgCompilerHost` in order to
create a `ts.Program` with the right shape for `NgCompiler`.
However, certain environments (such as the Angular Language Service) have
their own mechanisms for creating `ts.Program`s that don't make use of a
`ts.CompilerHost`. In such environments, an `NgCompilerHost` does not make
sense.
This commit breaks the dependency of `NgCompiler` on `NgCompilerHost` and
extracts the specific interface of the host on which `NgCompiler` depends
into a new interface, `NgCompilerAdapter`. This interface includes methods
from `ts.CompilerHost`, the `ExtendedTsCompilerHost`, as well as APIs from
`NgCompilerHost`.
A consumer such as the language service can implement this API without
needing to jump through hoops to create an `NgCompilerHost` implementation
that somehow wraps its specific environment.

When the compiler encounters a function call within an NgModule imports
section, it attempts to resolve it to an NgModule-annotated class by
looking at the function body and evaluating the statements there. This
evaluation can only understand simple functions which have a single
return statement as their body. If the function the user writes is more
complex than that, the compiler won't be able to understand it and
previously the PartialEvaluator would return a "DynamicValue" for
that import.
With this change, in the event the function body resolution fails the
PartialEvaluator will now attempt to use its foreign function resolvers to
determine the correct result from the function's type signtaure instead. If
the function is annotated with a correct ModuleWithProviders type, the
compiler will be able to understand the import without static analysis of
the function body.

The work to support case-sensitivity in the `FileSystem` went too far
with the `LogicalFileSystem`, which is used to compute import paths
that will be added to files processed by ngtsc and ngcc.
Previously all logical paths were canonicalised, which meant that on
case-insensitive file-systems, the paths were all set to lower case.
This resulted in incorrect imports being added to files. For example:
```
import { Apollo } from './Apollo';
import { SelectPipe } from './SelectPipe';
import * as ɵngcc0 from '@angular/core';
import * as ɵngcc1 from './selectpipe';
```
The import from `./SelectPipe` is from the original file, while the
import from `./selectpipe` is added by ngcc. This causes the
TypeScript compiler to complain, or worse for paths not to be
matched correctly.
Now, when computing logical paths, the original absolute paths
are matched against rootDirs in a canonical manner, but the actual
logical path that is returned maintains it original casing.

This optimization builds on a lot of prior work to finally make type-
checking of templates incremental.
Incrementality requires two main components:
- the ability to reuse work from a prior compilation.
- the ability to know when changes in the current program invalidate that
prior work.
Prior to this commit, on every type-checking pass the compiler would
generate new .ngtypecheck files for each original input file in the program.
1. (Build #1 main program): empty .ngtypecheck files generated for each
original input file.
2. (Build #1 type-check program): .ngtypecheck contents overridden for those
which have corresponding components that need type-checked.
3. (Build #2 main program): throw away old .ngtypecheck files and generate
new empty ones.
4. (Build #2 type-check program): same as step 2.
With this commit, the `IncrementalDriver` now tracks template type-checking
_metadata_ for each input file. The metadata contains information about
source mappings for generated type-checking code, as well as some
diagnostics which were discovered at type-check analysis time. The actual
type-checking code is stored in the TypeScript AST for type-checking files,
which is now re-used between programs as follows:
1. (Build #1 main program): empty .ngtypecheck files generated for each
original input file.
2. (Build #1 type-check program): .ngtypecheck contents overridden for those
which have corresponding components that need type-checked, and the
metadata registered in the `IncrementalDriver`.
3. (Build #2 main program): The `TypeCheckShimGenerator` now reuses _all_
.ngtypecheck `ts.SourceFile` shims from build #1's type-check program in
the construction of build #2's main program. Some of the contents of
these files might be stale (if a component's template changed, for
example), but wholesale reuse here prevents unnecessary changes in the
contents of the program at this point and makes TypeScript's job a lot
easier.
4. (Build #2 type-check program): For those input files which have not
"logically changed" (meaning components within are semantically the same
as they were before), the compiler will re-use the type-check file
metadata from build #1, and _not_ generate a new .ngtypecheck shim.
For components which have logically changed or where the previous
.ngtypecheck contents cannot otherwise be reused, code generation happens
as before.

As a performance optimization, this commit splits the single
__ngtypecheck__.ts file which was previously added to the user's program as
a container for all template type-checking code into multiple .ngtypecheck
shim files, one for each original file in the user's program.
In larger applications, the generation, parsing, and checking of this single
type-checking file was a huge performance bottleneck, with the file often
exceeding 1 MB in text content. Particularly in incremental builds,
regenerating this single file for the entire application proved especially
expensive.
This commit introduces a new strategy for template type-checking code which
makes use of a new interface, the `TypeCheckingProgramStrategy`. This
interface abstracts the process of creating a new `ts.Program` to type-check
a particular compilation, and allows the mechanism there to be kept separate
from the more complex logic around dealing with multiple .ngtypecheck files.
A new `TemplateTypeChecker` hosts that logic and interacts with the
`TypeCheckingProgramStrategy` to actually generate and return diagnostics.
The `TypeCheckContext` class, previously the workhorse of template type-
checking, is now solely focused on collecting and generating type-checking
file contents.
A side effect of implementing the new `TypeCheckingProgramStrategy` in this
way is that the API is designed to be suitable for use by the Angular
Language Service as well. The LS also needs to type-check components, but
has its own method for constructing a `ts.Program` with type-checking code.
Note that this commit does not make the actual checking of templates at all
_incremental_ just yet. That will happen in a future commit.

Shim generation was built on a lie.
Shims are files added to the program which aren't original files authored by
the user, but files authored effectively by the compiler. These fall into
two categories: files which will be generated (like the .ngfactory shims we
generate for View Engine compatibility) as well as files used internally in
compilation (like the __ng_typecheck__.ts file).
Previously, shim generation was driven by the `rootFiles` passed to the
compiler as input. These are effectively the `files` listed in the
`tsconfig.json`. Each shim generator (e.g. the `FactoryGenerator`) would
examine the `rootFiles` and produce a list of shim file names which it would
be responsible for generating. These names would then be added to the
`rootFiles` when the program was created.
The fatal flaw here is that `rootFiles` does not always account for all of
the files in the program. In fact, it's quite rare that it does. Users don't
typically specify every file directly in `files`. Instead, they rely on
TypeScript, during program creation, starting with a few root files and
transitively discovering all of the files in the program.
This happens, however, during `ts.createProgram`, which is too late to add
new files to the `rootFiles` list.
As a result, shim generation was only including shims for files actually
listed in the `tsconfig.json` file, and not for the transitive set of files
in the user's program as it should.
This commit completely rewrites shim generation to use a different technique
for adding files to the program, inspired by View Engine's shim generator.
In this new technique, as the program is being created and `ts.SourceFile`s
are being requested from the `NgCompilerHost`, shims for those files are
generated and a reference to them is patched onto the original file's
`ts.SourceFile.referencedFiles`. This causes TS to think that the original
file references the shim, and causes the shim to be included in the program.
The original `referencedFiles` array is saved and restored after program
creation, hiding this little hack from the rest of the system.
The new shim generation engine differentiates between two kinds of shims:
top-level shims (such as the flat module entrypoint file and
__ng_typecheck__.ts) and per-file shims such as ngfactory or ngsummary
files. The former are included via `rootFiles` as before, the latter are
included via the `referencedFiles` of their corresponding original files.
As a result of this change, shims are now correctly generated for all files
in the program, not just the ones named in `tsconfig.json`.
A few mitigating factors prevented this bug from being realized until now:
* in g3, `files` does include the transitive closure of files in the program
* in CLI apps, shims are not really used
This change also makes use of a novel technique for associating information
with source files: the use of an `NgExtension` `Symbol` to patch the
information directly onto the AST object. This is used in several
circumstances:
* For shims, metadata about a `ts.SourceFile`'s status as a shim and its
origins are held in the extension data.
* For original files, the original `referencedFiles` are stashed in the
extension data for later restoration.
The main benefit of this technique is a lot less bookkeeping around `Map`s
of `ts.SourceFile`s to various kinds of data, which need to be tracked/
invalidated as part of incremental builds.
This technique is based on designs used internally in the TypeScript
compiler and is serving as a prototype of this design in ngtsc. If it works
well, it could have benefits across the rest of the compiler.

The compiler needs to track the dependencies of a component, including any
NgModules which happen to be present in a component's scope. If an upstream
NgModule changes, any downstream components need to have their templates
re-compiled and re-typechecked.
Previously, the compiler handled this well for the A -> B -> C case where
module A imports module B which re-exports module C. However, it fell apart
in the A -> B -> C -> D case, because previously tracking focused on changes
to components/directives in the scope, and not NgModules specifically.
This commit introduces logic to track which NgModules contributed to a given
scope, and treat them as dependencies of any components within.
This logic also contains a bug, which is intentional for now. It
purposefully does not track transitive dependencies of the NgModules which
contribute to a scope. If it did, using the current dependency system, this
would treat all components and directives (even those not exported into the
scope) as dependencies, causing a major performance bottleneck. Only those
dependencies which contributed to the module's export scope should be
considered, but the current system is incapable of making this distinction.
This will be fixed at a later date.

The html parser already normalizes line endings (converting `\r\n` to `\n`)
for most text in templates but it was missing the expressions of ICU expansions.
In ViewEngine backticked literal strings, used to define inline templates,
were already normalized by the TypeScript parser.
In Ivy we are parsing the raw text of the source file directly so the line
endings need to be manually normalized.
This change ensures that inline templates have the line endings of ICU
expression normalized correctly, which matches the ViewEngine.
In ViewEngine external templates, defined in HTML files, the behavior was
different, since TypeScript was not normalizing the line endings.
Specifically, ICU expansion "expressions" are not being normalized.
This is a problem because it means that i18n message ids can be different on
different machines that are setup with different line ending handling,
or if the developer moves a template from inline to external or vice versa.
The goal is always to normalize line endings, whether inline or external.
But this would be a breaking change since it would change i18n message ids
that have been previously computed. Therefore this commit aligns the ivy
template parsing to have the same "buggy" behavior for external templates.
There is now a compiler option `i18nNormalizeLineEndingsInICUs`, which
if set to `true` will ensure the correct non-buggy behavior. For the time
being this option defaults to `false` to ensure backward compatibility while
allowing opt-in to the desired behavior. This option's default will be
flipped in a future breaking change release.
Further, when this option is set to `false`, any ICU expression tokens,
which have not been normalized, are added to the `ParseResult` from the
`HtmlParser.parse()` method. In the future, this collection of tokens could
be used to diagnose and encourage developers to migrate their i18n message
ids. See FW-2106.

When the compiler needs to convert a type reference to a value
expression, it may encounter a type that refers to a namespaced symbol.
Such namespaces need to be handled specially as there's various forms
available. Consider a namespace named "ns":
1. One can refer to a namespace by itself: `ns`. A namespace is only
allowed to be used in a type position if it has been merged with a
class, but even if this is the case it may not be possible to convert
that type into a value expression depending on the import form. More
on this later (case a below)
2. One can refer to a type within the namespace: `ns.Foo`. An import
needs to be generated to `ns`, from which the `Foo` property can then
be read.
3. One can refer to a type in a nested namespace within `ns`:
`ns.Foo.Bar` and possibly even deeper nested. The value
representation is similar to case 2, but includes additional property
accesses.
The exact strategy of how to deal with these cases depends on the type
of import used. There's two flavors available:
a. A namespaced import like `import * as ns from 'ns';` that creates
a local namespace that is irrelevant to the import that needs to be
generated (as said import would be used instead of the original
import).
If the local namespace "ns" itself is referred to in a type position,
it is invalid to convert it into a value expression. Some JavaScript
libraries publish a value as default export using `export = MyClass;`
syntax, however it is illegal to refer to that value using "ns".
Consequently, such usage in a type position *must* be accompanied by
an `@Inject` decorator to provide an explicit token.
b. An explicit namespace declaration within a module, that can be
imported using a named import like `import {ns} from 'ns';` where the
"ns" module declares a namespace using `declare namespace ns {}`.
In this case, it's the namespace itself that needs to be imported,
after which any qualified references into the namespace are converted
into property accesses.
Before this change, support for namespaces in the type-to-value
conversion was limited and only worked correctly for a single qualified
name using a namespace import (case 2a). All other cases were either
producing incorrect code or would crash the compiler (case 1a).
Crashing the compiler is not desirable as it does not indicate where
the issue is. Moreover, the result of a type-to-value conversion is
irrelevant when an explicit injection token is provided using `@Inject`,
so referring to a namespace in a type position (case 1) could still be
valid.
This commit introduces logic to the type-to-value conversion to be able
to properly deal with all type references to namespaced symbols.

In Ivy, Angular decorators are compiled into static fields that are
inserted into a class declaration in a TypeScript transform. When
targeting Closure compiler such fields need to be annotated with
`@nocollapse` to prevent them from being lifted from a static field into
a variable, as that would prevent the Ivy runtime from being able to
find the compiled definitions.
Previously, there was a bug in TypeScript where synthetic comments added
in a transform would not be emitted at all, so as a workaround a global
regex-replace was done in the emit's `writeFile` callback that would add
the `@nocollapse` annotation to all static Ivy definition fields. This
approach is no longer possible when ngtsc is running as TypeScript
plugin, as a plugin cannot control emit behavior.

This commit augments the `FactoryDef` declaration of Angular decorated
classes to contain information about the parameter decorators used in
the constructor. If no constructor is present, or none of the parameters
have any Angular decorators, then this will be represented using the
`null` type. Otherwise, a tuple type is used where the entry at index `i`
corresponds with parameter `i`. Each tuple entry can be one of two types:
1. If the associated parameter does not have any Angular decorators,
the tuple entry will be the `null` type.
2. Otherwise, a type literal is used that may declare at least one of
the following properties:
- "attribute": if `@Attribute` is present. The injected attribute's
name is used as string literal type, or the `unknown` type if the
attribute name is not a string literal.
- "self": if `@Self` is present, always of type `true`.
- "skipSelf": if `@SkipSelf` is present, always of type `true`.
- "host": if `@Host` is present, always of type `true`.
- "optional": if `@Optional` is present, always of type `true`.
A property is only present if the corresponding decorator is used.
Note that the `@Inject` decorator is currently not included, as it's
non-trivial to properly convert the token's value expression to a
type that is valid in a declaration file.
Additionally, the `ComponentDefWithMeta` declaration that is created for
Angular components has been extended to include all selectors on
`ng-content` elements within the component's template.
This additional metadata is useful for tooling such as the Angular
Language Service, as it provides the ability to offer suggestions for

tooling extracts the necessary information from the _metadata.json_
manifest file as generated by ngc, however this metadata representation

but it boils down to a TsickleHost method `shouldSkipTsickleProcessing`.
For ngc_wrapped builds (Bazel + Angular), this method is defined in the
`@bazel/typescript` (aka bazel rules_typescript) implementation of
`CompilerHost`. The default behavior is to skip tsickle processing for files
which are not present in the original `srcs[]` of the build rule. In
Angular's case, this includes all generated shim files.
For View Engine factories this is probably desirable as they're quite
complex and they've never been tested with tsickle. Ivy factories however
are smaller and very straightforward, and it makes sense to treat them like
any other output.
This commit adjusts two independent implementations of
`shouldSkipTsickleProcessing` to enable transformation of Ivy shims:
* in `@angular/bazel` aka ngc_wrapped, the upstream `@bazel/typescript`
`CompilerHost` is patched to treat .ngfactory files the same as their
original source file, with respect to tsickle processing.
It is currently not possible to test this change as we don't have any test
that inspects tsickle output with bazel. It will be extensively tested in
g3.
* in `ngc`, Angular's own implementation is adjusted to allow for the
processing of shims when compiling with Ivy. This enables a unit test to
be written to validate the correct behavior of tsickle when given a host
that's appropriately configured to process factory shims.
For ngtsc-as-a-plugin, a similar fix will need to be submitted upstream in
tsc_wrapped.

This commit adds support in the Angular monorepo and in the Angular
compiler(s) for TypeScript 3.8. All packages can now compile with
TS 3.8.
For most of the repo, only a handful few typings adjustments were needed:
* TS 3.8 has a new `CustomElementConstructor` DOM type, which enforces a
zero-argument constructor. The `NgElementConstructor` type previously
declared a required `injector` argument despite the fact that its
implementation allowed `injector` to be optional. The interface type was
updated to reflect the optionality of the argument.
* Certain error messages were changed, and expectations in tests were
updated as a result.
* tsserver (part of language server) now returns performance information in
responses, so test expectations were changed to only assert on the actual
body content of responses.
For compiler-cli and schematics (which use the TypeScript AST) a major
breaking change was the introduction of the export form:
```typescript
export * as foo from 'bar';
```
This is a `ts.NamespaceExport`, and the `exportClause` of a
`ts.ExportDeclaration` can now take this type as well as `ts.NamedExports`.
This broke a lot of places where `exportClause` was assumed to be
`ts.NamedExports`.
For the most part these breakages were in cases where it is not necessary
to handle the new `ts.NamedExports` anyway. ngtsc's design uses the
`ts.TypeChecker` APIs to understand syntax and so automatically supports the
new form of exports.
The View Engine compiler on the other hand extracts TS structures into
metadata.json files, and that format was not designed for namespaced
exports. As a result it will take a nontrivial amount of work if we want to
support such exports in View Engine. For now, these new exports are not
accounted for in metadata.json, and so using them in "folded" Angular
expressions will result in errors (probably claiming that the referenced
exported namespace doesn't exist).
Care was taken to only use TS APIs which are present in 3.7/3.6, as Angular
needs to remain compatible with these for the time being.
This commit does not update angular.io.

Prior to this commit, while calculating the scope for a module, Ivy compiler processed `declarations` field first and `imports` after that. That results in a couple issues:
* for Pipes with the same `name` and present in `declarations` and in an imported module, Pipe from imported module was selected. In View Engine the logic is opposite: Pipes from `declarations` field receive higher priority.
* for Directives with the same selector and present in `declarations` and in an imported module, we first invoked the logic of a Directive from `declarations` field and after that - imported Directive logic. In View Engine, it was the opposite and the logic of a Directive from the `declarations` field was invoked last.
In order to align Ivy and View Engine behavior, this commit updates the logic in which we populate module scope: we first process all imports and after that handle `declarations` field. As a result, in Ivy both use-cases listed above work similar to View Engine.
Resolves#35502.
