@NgModule()s get compiled to two fields: ngModuleDef and ngInjectorDef.
Both fields contain imports, as both selector scopes and injectors have
the concept of composed units of configuration. Previously these fields
were generated by static resolution of imports and exports in metadata.
Support for ModuleWithProviders requires they be generated differently.
ngModuleDef's imports/exports are generated as resolved lists of types,
whereas ngInjectorDef's imports should reflect the raw expressions that
the developer wrote in the metadata.
This change modifies the NgModule handler and properly copies raw nodes
for the imports and exports into the ngInjectorDef.

Previously ngtsc had a few bugs handling special token types:
* Injector was not properly translated to INJECTOR
* ChangeDetectorRef was not injected via injectChangeDetectorRef()
This commit fixes these two bugs, and also adds a test to ensure
they continue to work correctly.

Within an @NgModule it's common to include in the imports a call to
a ModuleWithProviders function, for example RouterModule.forRoot().
The old ngc compiler was able to handle this pattern because it had
global knowledge of metadata of not only the input compilation unit
but also all dependencies.
The ngtsc compiler for Ivy doesn't have this knowledge, so the
pattern of ModuleWithProviders functions is more difficult. ngtsc
must be able to determine which module is imported via the function
in order to expand the selector scope and properly tree-shake
directives and pipes.
This commit implements a solution to this problem, by adding a type
parameter to ModuleWithProviders through which the actual module
type can be passed between compilation units.
The provider side isn't a problem because the imports are always
copied directly to the ngInjectorDef.

Metadata in Ivy must be literal. For example,
@NgModule({...})
is legal, whereas
const meta = {...};
@NgModule(meta)
is not.
However, some code contains additional superfluous parentheses:
@NgModule(({...}))
It is desirable that ngtsc accept this form of literal object.

It's possible to declare an argument-less NgModule:
@NgModule() export class Foo {}
Update the @NgModule compiler to support this usage.
PR Close#24738
This commit changes the @NgModule provider to understand that sometimes
an import will resolve to an object instead of a type, and that object
could be of the ModuleWithProviders type. In that case, the 'ngModule'
property is read, and its value used instead.
This still will not handle ModuleWithProviders references across
compilation units; that work is coming in a future PR.

This commit adds support for templateUrl in component templates within
ngtsc. The compilation pipeline is split into sync and async versions,
where asynchronous compilation invokes a special preanalyze() phase of
analysis. The preanalyze() phase can optionally return a Promise which
will delay compilation until it resolves.
A ResourceLoader interface is used to resolve templateUrls to template
strings and can return results either synchronously or asynchronously.
During sync compilation it is an error if the ResourceLoader returns a
Promise.
Two ResourceLoader implementations are provided. One uses 'fs' to read
resources directly from disk and is chosen if the CompilerHost doesn't
provide a readResource method. The other wraps the readResource method
from CompilerHost if it's provided.

- Ensures that lifecycle hooks are inherited from super classes whether they are defined as directives or not
- Directives cannot inherit from Components
- Components can inherit from Directives or Components
- Ensures that Inputs, Outputs, and Host Bindings are inherited
- Ensures that super class Features are run

Currently ngtsc does not compile @Pipe. This has a side effect
of not removing the @Pipe decorator.
This adds a dummy DecoratorHandler that compiles @Pipe into an
empty ngPipeDef. Eventually this will be replaced with a full
implementation, but for now this solution allows compield code
to be tree-shaken properly.

@angular/core is unique in that it defines the Angular decorators
(@Component, @Directive, etc). Ordinarily ngtsc looks for imports
from @angular/core in order to identify these decorators. Clearly
within core itself, this strategy doesn't work.
Instead, a special constant ITS_JUST_ANGULAR is declared within a
known file in @angular/core. If ngtsc sees this constant it knows
core is being compiled and can ignore the imports when evaluating
decorators.
Additionally, when compiling decorators ngtsc will often write an
import to @angular/core for needed symbols. However @angular/core
cannot import itself. This change creates a module within core to
export all the symbols needed to compile it and adds intelligence
within ngtsc to write relative imports to that module, instead of
absolute imports to @angular/core.

This change generates ngInjectorDef as well as ngModuleDef for @NgModule
annotated types, reflecting the dual nature of @NgModules as both compilation
scopes and as DI configuration containers.
This required implementing ngInjectorDef compilation in @angular/compiler as
well as allowing for multiple generated definitions for a single decorator in
the core of ngtsc.

ngtsc needs to reflect over code to property compile it. It performs operations
such as enumerating decorators on a type, reading metadata from constructor
parameters, etc.
Depending on the format (ES5, ES6, etc) of the underlying code, the AST
structures over which this reflection takes place can be very different. For
example, in TS/ES6 code `class` declarations are `ts.ClassDeclaration` nodes,
but in ES5 code they've been downleveled to `ts.VariableDeclaration` nodes that
are initialized to IIFEs that build up the classes being defined.
The ReflectionHost abstraction allows ngtsc to perform these operations without
directly querying the AST. Different implementations of ReflectionHost allow
support for different code formats.

This change supports compilation of components, directives, and modules
within ngtsc. Support is not complete, but is enough to compile and test
//packages/core/test/bundling/todo in full AOT mode. Code size benefits
are not yet achieved as //packages/core itself does not get compiled, and
some decorators (e.g. @Input) are not stripped, leading to unwanted code
being retained by the tree-shaker. This will be improved in future commits.
