Previously, inline exports of the form `exports.foo = <implementation>;` were
being interpreted (by the ngtsc `PartialInterpeter`) as `Reference` objects.
This is not what is desired since it prevents the value of the export
from being unpacked, such as when analyzing `NgModule` declarations:
```
exports.directives = [Directive1, Directive2];
@NgImport({declarations: [exports.directives]})
class AppModule {}
```
In this example the interpreter would think that `exports.directives`
was a reference rather than an array that needs to be unpacked.

When ngcc is configured to run with the `--use-program-dependencies`
flag, as is the case in the CLI's asynchronous processing, it will scan
all source files in the program, starting from the program's root files
as configured in the tsconfig. Each individual root file could
potentially rescan files that had already been scanned for an earlier
root file, causing a severe performance penalty if the number of root
files is large. This would be the case if glob patterns are used in the
"include" specification of a tsconfig file.
This commit avoids the performance penalty by keeping track of the files
that have been scanned across all root files, such that no source file
is scanned multiple times.

Previously, any declarations that were defined "inline" were not
recognised by the `UmdReflectionHost`.
For example, the following syntax was completely unrecognized:
```ts
var Foo_1;
exports.Foo = Foo_1 = (function() {
function Foo() {}
return Foo;
})();
exports.Foo = Foo_1 = __decorate(SomeDecorator, Foo);
```
Such inline classes were ignored and not processed by ngcc.
This lack of processing led to failures in Ivy applications that relied
on UMD formats of libraries such as `syncfusion/ej2-angular-ui-components`.
Now all known inline UMD exports are recognized and processed accordingly.

Previously these tests were checking multiple specific expression
types. The new helper function is more general and will also support
`PropertyAccessExpression` nodes for `InlineDeclaration` types.
PR Close#38959
Previously the `ConcreteDeclaration` and `InlineDeclaration` had
different properties for the underlying node type. And the `InlineDeclaration`
did not store a value that represented its declaration.
It turns out that a natural declaration node for an inline type is the
expression. For example in UMD/CommonJS this would be the `exports.<name>`
property access node.
So this expression is now used for the `node` of `InlineDeclaration` types
and the `expression` property is dropped.
To support this the codebase has been refactored to use a new `DeclarationNode`
type which is a union of `ts.Declaration|ts.Expression` instead of `ts.Declaration`
throughout.

This makes these tests more resilient to changes in the test code
structure. For example switching from

var SomeClass = <implementation>;
exports.SomeClass = SomeClass;

Previously `getDeclaration()` would only return the first node that matched
the name passed in and then assert the predicate on this single node.
It also only considered a subset of possible declaration types that we might
care about.
Now the function will parse the whole tree collecting an array of all the
nodes that match the name. It then filters this array based on the predicate
and only errors if the filtered array is empty.
This makes this function much more resilient to more esoteric code formats
such as UMD.

The new function does not try to restrict the kind of AST node that it
finds, leaving that to the caller. This will make it more resuable in the
UMD reflection host.

Sometimes UMD exports appear in the following form:
```
exports.MyClass = alias1 = alias2 = <<declaration>>
```
Previously the declaration of the export would have been captured
as `alias1 = alias2 = <<declaration>>`, which the `PartialInterpreter`
would have failed on, since it cannot handle assignments.
Now we skip over these aliases capturing only the `<<declaration>>`
expression.

This is a precursor to introducing the Angular linker. As an initial
step, a compiler option to configure the compilation mode is introduced.
This option is initially internal until the linker is considered ready.

This commit adds an API to `NgCompiler`, a method called
`getComponentsWithTemplateFile`. Given a filesystem path to an external
template file, it retrieves a `Set` (actually a `ReadonlySet`) of component
declarations which are using this template. In most cases, this will only be
a single component.
This information is easily determined by the compiler during analysis, but
is hard for a lot of Angular tooling (e.g. the language service) to infer
independently. Therefore, it makes sense to expose this as a compiler API.

This commit refactors the `ExpressionTranslatorVisitor` so that it
is not tied directly to the TypeScript AST. Instead it uses generic
`TExpression` and `TStatement` types that are then converted
to concrete types by the `TypeScriptAstFactory`.
This paves the way for a `BabelAstFactory` that can be used to
generate Babel AST nodes instead of TypeScript, which will be
part of the new linker tool.

In #38666 we changed how ngcc deals with type expressions, where it
would now always emit the original type expression into the generated
code as a "local" type value reference instead of synthesizing new
imports using an "imported" type value reference. This was done as a fix
to properly deal with renamed symbols, however it turns out that the
compiler has special handling for certain imported symbols, e.g.
`ChangeDetectorRef` from `@angular/core`. The "local" type value
reference prevented this special logic from being hit, resulting in
incorrect compilation of pipe factories.
This commit fixes the issue by manually inspecting the import of the
type expression, in order to return an "imported" type value reference.
By manually inspecting the import we continue to handle renamed symbols.

Common AST formats such as TS and Babel do not use a separate
node for comments, but instead attach comments to other AST nodes.
Previously this was worked around in TS by creating a `NotEmittedStatement`
AST node to attach the comment to. But Babel does not have this facility,
so it will not be a viable approach for the linker.
This commit refactors the output AST, to remove the `CommentStmt` and
`JSDocCommentStmt` nodes. Instead statements have a collection of
`leadingComments` that are rendered/attached to the final AST nodes
when being translated or printed.

In the integration test suite of ngcc, we load a set of files from
`node_modules` into memory. This includes the `typescript` package and
`@angular` scoped packages, which account for a large number of large
files that needs to be loaded from disk. This commit moves this work
to the top-level, such that it doesn't have to be repeated in all tests.

Recent optimizations to ngcc have significantly reduced the total time
it takes to process `node_modules`, to such extend that sharding across
multiple processes has become less effective. Previously, running
ngcc asynchronously would allow for up to 8 workers to be allocated,
however these workers have to repeat work that could otherwise be shared.
Because ngcc is now able to reuse more shared computations, the overhead
of multiple workers is increased and therefore becomes less effective.
As an additional benefit, having fewer workers requires less memory and
less startup time.
To give an idea, using the following test setup:
```bash
npx @angular/cli new perf-test
cd perf-test
yarn ng add @angular/material
./node_modules/.bin/ngcc --properties es2015 module main \
--first-only --create-ivy-entry-points
```
We observe the following figures on CI:
| | 10.1.1 | PR #38840 |
| ----------------- | --------- | --------- |
| Sync | 85s | 25s |
| Async (8 workers) | 22s | 16s |
| Async (4 workers) | - | 11s |
In addition to changing the default number of workers, ngcc will now
use the environment variable `NGCC_MAX_WORKERS` that may be configured
to either reduce or increase the number of workers.

ngcc creates typically two `ts.Program` instances for each entry-point,
one for processing sources and another one for processing the typings.
The creation of these programs is somewhat expensive, as it concerns
module resolution and parsing of source files.
This commit implements several layers of caching to optimize the
creation of programs:
1. A shared module resolution cache across all entry-points within a
single invocation of ngcc. Both the sources and typings program
benefit from this cache.
2. Sharing the parsed `ts.SourceFile` for a single entry-point between
the sources and typings program.
3. Sharing parsed `ts.SourceFile`s of TypeScript's default libraries
across all entry-points within a single invocation. Some of these
default library typings are large and therefore expensive to parse,
so sharing the parsed source files across all entry-points offers
a significant performance improvement.
Using a bare CLI app created using `ng new` + `ng add @angular/material`,
the above changes offer a 3-4x improvement in ngcc's processing time
when running synchronously and ~2x improvement for asynchronous runs.

In TypeScript 3.8 support was added for type-only imports, which only brings in
the symbol as a type, not their value. The Angular compiler did not yet take
the type-only keyword into account when representing symbols in type positions
as value expressions. The class metadata that the compiler emits would include
the value expression for its parameter types, generating actual imports as
necessary. For type-only imports this should not be done, as it introduces an
actual import of the module that was originally just a type-only import.
This commit lets the compiler deal with type-only imports specially, preventing
a value expression from being created.

This commit significantly refactors the 'typecheck' package to introduce a
new abstraction, the `TemplateTypeChecker`. To achieve this:
* a 'typecheck:api' package is introduced, containing common interfaces that
consumers of the template type-checking infrastructure can depend on
without incurring a dependency on the template type-checking machinery as
a whole.
* interfaces for `TemplateTypeChecker` and `TypeCheckContext` are introduced
which contain the abstract operations supported by the implementation
classes `TemplateTypeCheckerImpl` and `TypeCheckContextImpl` respectively.
* the `TemplateTypeChecker` interface supports diagnostics on a whole
program basis to start with, but the implementation is purposefully
designed to support incremental diagnostics at a per-file or per-component
level.
* `TemplateTypeChecker` supports direct access to the type check block of a
component.
* the testing utility is refactored to be a lot more useful, and new tests
are added for the new abstraction.

In CLI v10 there was a move to use the new solution-style tsconfig
which became available in TS 3.9.
The result of this is that the standard tsconfig.json no longer contains
important information such as "paths" mappings, which ngcc might need to
correctly compute dependencies.
ngcc (and ngc and tsc) infer the path to tsconfig.json if not given an
explicit tsconfig file-path. But now that means it infers the solution
tsconfig rather than one that contains the useful information it used to
get.
This commit logs a warning in this case to inform the developer
that they might not have meant to load this tsconfig and offer
alternative options.

The `fs.relative()` method assumed that the file-system is a single tree,
which is not the case in Windows, where you can have multiple drives,
e.g. `C:`, `D:` etc.
This commit changes `fs.relative()` so that it no longer forces the result
to be a `PathSegment` and then flows that refactoring through the rest of
the compiler-cli (and ngcc). The main difference is that now, in some cases,
we needed to check whether the result is "rooted", i.e an `AbsoluteFsPath`,
rather than a `PathSegment`, before using it.
