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. The workaround is no longer necessary, as synthetic comments are now properly emitted, likely as of https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/pull/22141 which has been released with TypeScript 2.8. This change is required for running ngtsc as TypeScript plugin in Bazel's `ts_library` rule, to move away from the custom `ngc_wrapped` approach. Resolves FW-1952 PR Close #35932
