The `NgccReflectionHost`s have logic for detecting certain known declarations (such as `Object.assign()` and TypeScript helpers), which allows the `PartialEvaluator` to evaluate expressions it would not be able to statically evaluate otherwise. In #36089, `DelegatingReflectionHost` was introduced, which delegates to a TypeScript `ReflectionHost` when reflecting on TypeScript files, which for ngcc's case means `.d.ts` files of dependencies. As a result, ngcc lost the ability to detect TypeScript helpers imported from `tslib`, because `DelegatingReflectionHost` was not able to apply the known declaration detection logic while reflecting on `tslib`'s `.d.ts` files. This commit fixes this by ensuring `DelegatingReflectionHost` calls the `NgccReflectionHost`'s `detectKnownDeclaration()` method as necessary, even when using the TypeScript `ReflectionHost`. NOTE: The previous commit exposed a bug in ngcc that was hidden due to the tests' being inconsistent with how the `ReflectionHost`s are used in the actual program. The changes in this commit are verified by ensuring the failing tests are now passing (hence no new tests are added). PR Close #36284
