Folding errors passed calls prevented the static reflector from
begin able to ignore errors in annotations it doesn't know as
the call to the unknown annotation was elided from the metadata.

The "enableIvy" compiler option is the initial implementation
of the Render3 (or Ivy) code generation. This commit enables
generation generating "Hello, World" (example in the test)
but not much else. It is currenly only useful for internal Ivy
testing as Ivy is in development.

The compiler host would force any file that is in node_modules
into the list of files that needed to be type checked which
captures .js files if `allowJs` is set to `true`. This should
have only forced .d.ts files into the project to enable
generation of factories.
Fixes: #19757
Allows a directive to use the expression passed directly to a property
as a guard instead of filtering the type through a type expression.
This more accurately matches the intent of the ngIf usage of its template
enabling better type inference.
Moved NgIf to using this type of guard instead of a function guard.
Closes: #20967
Previously, this code would unconditionally add a @fileoverview
comment to generated files, and only if the contained any code at all.
However often existing fileoverview comments should be copied from the
file the generated file was originally based off of. This allows users
to e.g. include Closure Compiler directives in their original
`component.ts` file, which will then automaticallly also apply to code
generated from it.
This special cases `@license` comments, as Closure disregards directives
in comments containing `@license`.

`$any()` can now be used in a binding expression to disable type
checking for the rest of the expression. This similar to `as any` in
TypeScript and allows expression that work at runtime but do not
type-check.

Structural directives can now specify a type guard that describes
what types can be inferred for an input expression inside the
directive's template.
NgIf was modified to declare an input guard on ngIf.
After this change, `fullTemplateTypeCheck` will infer that
usage of `ngIf` expression inside it's template is truthy.
For example, if a component has a property `person?: Person`
and a template of `<div *ngIf="person"> {{person.name}} </div>`
the compiler will no longer report that `person` might be null or
undefined.
The template compiler will generate code similar to,
```
if (NgIf.ngIfTypeGuard(instance.person)) {
instance.person.name
}
```
to validate the template's use of the interpolation expression.
Calling the type guard in this fashion allows TypeScript to infer
that `person` is non-null.

The errors produced when error were encountered while interpreting the
content of a directive was often incomprehencible. With this change
these kind of error messages should be easier to understand and diagnose.

The type-check block generated with `"fullTemplateTypeCheck"` was
invalid if the it contained a template ref as would be generated
using the `else` micro-syntax of `NgIf`.

Condition: static analysis error, given:
- noResolve:true
- generateCodeForLibraries: false
- CompilerHost.getSourceFile throws on non existent files
All of these are true in G3.

This also changes the compiler so that we throw less often
on structural changes and produce a meaningful state
in the `ng.Program` in case of errors.
