An internal change in Ivy has surfaced issues in previosly broken code. This change adds a note to the
Ivy compatibility guide as well as the TrackByFunction api docs.

Most of these were fixed in other PRs but there were are couple of stragglers.
Note that `my-app` components in non-documentation facing code, such as
compliance tests have not been changed.

We skip event listeners on non-element host nodes (e.g. `ng-container` or `ng-element`), because they don't map to a DOM node so there's nothing to bind the event to. The problem is that this also prevents listeners bound to global targets from being bound.
These changes add an extra condition to allow for the event to be bound if it has a custom event target resolver.
Fixes#14191.

The JIT compiler has a mapping from component to the owning NgModule
and tracks whether a certain NgModule class has been verified; these
maps causes any JIT compiled component and NgModule to be retained even
if they are no longer referenced from anywhere else. This commit
switches the maps to `WeakMap` to allow garbage collecting any
components and NgModules that are no longer referenced elsewhere.

When there are multiple attributes that are marked for i18n translation,
which contain expression bindings, we were generating i18n update op-codes
that did not accurately map to the correct value to be bound in the lView.
Each attribute's bindings were relative to the start of the lView first
attributes values rather than to their own.
This fix passes the current binding index to `generateBindingUpdateOpCodes()`
when processing i18n attributes to account for this.

Makes the following improvements to the listener instructions to make them slightly smaller and more memory-efficient.
1. Removes the default value from the `useCapture` parameter since it generates more code than just castint to `false`.
2. Removes the `useCapture` and `eventTargetResolver` parameters from `ɵɵsyntheticHostListener` since they won't be generated by the compiler, as far as I can tell.
3. Makes it so that we don't have to return a target name from a `GlobalTargetResolver`. This allows us to save on some memory, because we can return a reference to the target without having to wrap it in an object literal.
DEPRECATIONS:
`EventManagerPlugin.getGlobalEventTarget` is now deprecated and won't be called from Ivy code anymore. Global events will go through `addEventListener`.

These changes ensure that these links are not affected by the
disambiguation processing of those docs.

Currently we save a reference to an `LView` on most DOM nodes created by Angular either by saving
the `LView` directly in the `__ngContext__` or by saving the `LContext` which has a reference to
the `LView`. This can be a problem if the DOM node is retained in memory, because the `LView` has
references to all of the child nodes of the view, as well as other internal data structures.
Previously we tried to resolve the issue by clearing the `__ngContext__` when a node is removed
(see https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/36011), but we decided not to proceeed, because it can
slow down destruction due to a megamorphic write.
These changes aim to address the issue while reducing the performance impact by assigning a unique
ID when an `LView` is created and adding it to `__ngContext__`. All active views are tracked in
a map where their unique ID is used as the key. We don't need to worry about leaks within that map,
because `LView`s are an internal data structure and we have complete control over when they are
created and destroyed.
Fixes#41047.

Currently we have a lot of places where we repeat the type `Type<T>|AbstractType<T>|InjectionToken<T>` which makes it cumbersome to add another type or to type something else with the same signature.
These changes add a new type that can be used instead.

This commit refactors the code to replace `loadLContext` with `getLContext` calls. The only difference between these two functions is that the `loadLContext` supports throwing an error in case `LContext` can not be found. The investigation performed in #41525 revealed that throwing while retrieving `LContext` might have undesirable performance implications, so we should avoid that to make sure there are no accidental perf regressions in other parts of code that used `loadLContext`. Moreover, in most of the places the `loadLContext` was already called in a mode that prevented an error from being thrown, so this refactoring should have no effect on the actual behavior.

documentation of decendants property of @ContentChildren was not clear when decendants was set to false it did not pick up direct children when any directive was used on the elements. With Ivy the functionality follows the following pattern only query direct children (in the sense of elements in a template) when descendants: false is specified.

This commit introduces the following optimizations:
1. We return an empty array for text nodes in `getDirectives` because
Angular does not support attaching logic to them. This optimization
improves performance of `getDirectives` significantly because text nodes
often result in expensive calls to `loadLContext` since we can't resolve
it from a parent node.
1. `getDirectives` now calls `loadLContext` with second argument `false`
so it doesn't throw an error. This brings another significant
improvement because prevents the VM from deoptimizing calls.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Previously the `ng.getDirectives` function threw an error in case a
given DOM node had no Angular context associated with it (for example
if a function was called for a DOM element outside of an Angular app).
This behavior was inconsistent with other debugging utilities under `ng`
namespace, which handled this situation without raising an exception.
Now calling the `ng.getDirectives` function for such DOM nodes would
result in an empty array returned from that function.

This commit introduces a global debugging method
`ng.getDirectiveMetadata` which returns the metadata for a directive or
component instance.
PR Close#41525
This commit refactors the generated code for class metadata in partial
compilation mode. Instead of emitting class metadata into a top-level
`ɵsetClassMetadata` call guarded by `ngDevMode` flags, the class
metadata is now declared using a top-level `ɵɵngDeclareClassMetadata`
call.

Fixes an error that will be thrown if `DebugRenderer2.destroyNode` is called with a node that has already been destroyed. The error happened, because we had a non-null assertion, even though the value can be null.
Note that this fix applies only to ViewEngine, because Ivy doesn't provide the `DebugRenderer2`. I decided to resolve it, because it fix is straightforward and this error has been showing up in our logs for a long time now, making actual errors harder to find.

This commit changes the partial compilation so that it outputs declarations
rather than definitions for injectables.
The JIT compiler and the linker are updated to be able to handle these
new declarations.

The other similar interfaces were renamed in https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/41119,
but this one was left since it had existed before Ivy. It looks like the interface was
never actually exposed on npm so it is safe to rename this one too.
