In a package.json file, the "typings" or "types" field could be an array
of typings files. ngcc would previously crash unexpectedly for such
packages, as it assumed that the typings field would be a string. This
commit lets ngcc skip over such packages, as having multiple typing
entry-points is not supported for Angular packages so it is safe to
ignore them.

This commit adapts the private NgModule re-export system (using aliasing) to
ngcc. Not all ngcc compilations are compatible with these re-exports, as
they assume a 1:1 correspondence between .js and .d.ts files. The primary
concern here is supporting them for commonjs-only packages.

Normally, when ngcc encounters a package with missing dependencies while
attempting to determine a compilation ordering, it will ignore that package.
This commit adds a configuration for a flag to tell ngcc to compile the
package anyway, regardless of any missing dependencies.

There are two places in the ngcc processing where it needs to load the
content of a file given by a general path:
* when determining the format of an entry-point.
To do this ngcc uses the value of the relevant property in package.json.
But in the case of `main` it must parse the contents of the entry-point
file to decide whether the format is UMD or CommonJS.
* when parsing the source files for dependencies to determine the order in
which compilation must occur. The relative imports in each file are parsed
and followed recursively, looking for external imports.
Previously, we naively assumed that the path would match the file name exactly.
But actually we must consider the standard module resolution conventions.
E.g. the extension (.js) may be missing, or the path may refer to a directory
containing an index.js file.
This commit fixes both places.
This commit now requires the `DependencyHost` instances to check
the existence of more files than before (at worst all the different possible
post-fixes). This should not create a significant performance reduction for
ngcc. Since the results of the checks will be cached, and similar work is
done inside the TS compiler, so what we lose in doing it here, is saved later
in the processing. The main performance loss would be where there are lots
of files that need to be parsed for dependencies that do not end up being
processed by TS. But compared to the main ngcc processing this dependency
parsing is a small proportion of the work done and so should not impact
much on the overall performance of ngcc.

When determining if a `main` path points to a UMD or CommonJS
format, the contents of the file need to be loaded and parsed.
Previously, it was assumed that the path referred to the exact filename,
but did not account for normal module resolution semantics, where the
path may be missing an extension or refer to a directory containing an
`index.js` file.

Some packages do not actually provide a `typings` field in their
package.json. But TypeScript naturally infers the typings file from
the location of the JavaScript source file.
This commit modifies ngcc to do a similar inference when finding
entry-points to process.
Fixes#28603 (FW-1299)
PR Close#30591
There are scenarios where it is not possible for ngcc to guess the format
or configuration of an entry-point just from the files on disk.
Such scenarios include:
1) Unwanted entry-points: A spurious package.json makes ngcc think
there is an entry-point when there should not be one.
2) Deep-import entry-points: some packages allow deep-imports but do not
provide package.json files to indicate to ngcc that the imported path is
actually an entry-point to be processed.
3) Invalid/missing package.json properties: For example, an entry-point
that does not provide a valid property to a required format.
The configuration is provided by one or more `ngcc.config.js` files:
* If placed at the root of the project, this file can provide configuration
for named packages (and their entry-points) that have been npm installed
into the project.
* If published as part of a package, the file can provide configuration
for entry-points of the package.
The configured of a package at the project level will override any
configuration provided by the package itself.

Previously each test relied on large shared mock file-systems, which
makes it difficult to reason about what is actually being tested.
This commit breaks up these big mock file-systems into smaller more
focused chunks.
PR Close#30591
To improve cross platform support, all file access (and path manipulation)
is now done through a well known interface (`FileSystem`).
For testing a number of `MockFileSystem` implementations are provided.
These provide an in-memory file-system which emulates operating systems
like OS/X, Unix and Windows.
The current file system is always available via the static method,
`FileSystem.getFileSystem()`. This is also used by a number of static
methods on `AbsoluteFsPath` and `PathSegment`, to avoid having to pass
`FileSystem` objects around all the time. The result of this is that one
must be careful to ensure that the file-system has been initialized before
using any of these static methods. To prevent this happening accidentally
the current file system always starts out as an instance of `InvalidFileSystem`,
which will throw an error if any of its methods are called.
You can set the current file-system by calling `FileSystem.setFileSystem()`.
During testing you can call the helper function `initMockFileSystem(os)`
which takes a string name of the OS to emulate, and will also monkey-patch
aspects of the TypeScript library to ensure that TS is also using the
current file-system.
Finally there is the `NgtscCompilerHost` to be used for any TypeScript
compilation, which uses a given file-system.
All tests that interact with the file-system should be tested against each
of the mock file-systems. A series of helpers have been provided to support
such tests:
* `runInEachFileSystem()` - wrap your tests in this helper to run all the
wrapped tests in each of the mock file-systems.
* `addTestFilesToFileSystem()` - use this to add files and their contents
to the mock file system for testing.
* `loadTestFilesFromDisk()` - use this to load a mirror image of files on
disk into the in-memory mock file-system.
* `loadFakeCore()` - use this to load a fake version of `@angular/core`
into the mock file-system.
All ngcc and ngtsc source and tests now use this virtual file-system setup.

This commit introduces a new interface, which abstracts access
to the underlying `FileSystem`. There is initially one concrete
implementation, `NodeJsFileSystem`, which is simply wrapping the
`fs` library of NodeJs.
Going forward, we can provide a `MockFileSystem` for test, which
should allow us to stop using `mock-fs` for most of the unit tests.
We could also implement a `CachedFileSystem` that may improve the
performance of ngcc.

Previously we completely ignored entry-points that had not been
compiled with Angular, since we do not need to compile them
with ngcc. But this makes it difficult to reason about dependencies
between entry-points that were compiled with Angular and those that
were not.
Now we do track these non-Angular compiled entry-points but they
are marked as `compiledByAngular: false`.
PR Close#29643
Now that we are using package.json properties to indicate which
entry-point format to compile, it turns out that we don't really
need to distinguish between flat and non-flat formats, unless we
are compiling `@angular/core`.

You can now specify a list of properties in the package.json that
should be considered (in order) to find the path to the format to compile.
The build marker system has been updated to store the markers in
the package.json rather than an additional external file.
Also instead of tracking the underlying bundle format that was compiled,
it now tracks the package.json property.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The `proertiesToConsider` option replaces the previous `formats` option,
which specified the final bundle format, rather than the property in the
package.json.
If you were using this option to compile only specific bundle formats,
you must now modify your usage to pass in the properties in the package.json
that map to the format that you wish to compile.
In the CLI, the `--formats` is no longer available. Instead use the
`--properties` option.
