In the new behavior Angular removes applications from the testability registry when the
root view gets destroyed. This eliminates a memory leak, because before that the
TestabilityRegistry holds references to HTML elements, thus they cannot be GCed.

As only methods from the Subscribable interface are currently used in the
implementation of the async pipe, it makes sense to make it explicit so
that it works successfully with any other implementation instead of
only Observable.
PR Close#39627
This commit removes the TODO comment that proposed
that we use the built-in RxJS `isObservable()` function.
This is not a viable approach since the built-in function
requires that the `obj` contains additional methods that
our "observable" types (such as `EventEmitter`) do not
necessarily have.
See #39643 for more information.

Angular-internal type definitions for Trusted Types were added in #39211.
When compiled using the Closure compiler with certain optimization
flags, identifiers from these type definitions (such as createPolicy)
are currently uglified and renamed to shorter strings. This causes
Angular applications compiled in this way to fail to create a Trusted
Types policy, and fall bock to using strings.
To fix this, mark the internal Trusted Types definitions as declarations
using the "declare" keyword. Also convert types to interfaces, for
the reasons explained in https://ncjamieson.com/prefer-interfaces/

Runtime i18n logic doesn't distinguish `<ng-content>` tag placeholders and regular element tag
placeholders in i18n messages, so there is no need to have a special marker for projection-based
placeholders and element markers can be used instead.

Before this refactoring/fix the ICU would store the current selected
index in `TView`. This is incorrect, since if ICU is in `ngFor` it will
cause issues in some circumstances. This refactoring properly moves the
state to `LView`.

`TemplateFixture` used to have positional parameters and many tests got
hard to read as number of parameters reach 10+ with many of them `null`.
This refactoring changes `TemplateFixture` to take named parameters
which improves usability and readability in tests.

When an application uses a custom sanitizer or one of the
bypassSecurityTrust functions, Angular has no way of knowing whether
they are implemented in a secure way. (It doesn't even know if they're
introduced by the application or by a shady third-party dependency.)
Thus using Angular's main Trusted Types policy to bless values coming
from these two sources would undermine the security that Trusted Types
brings.
Instead, introduce a Trusted Types policy called angular#unsafe-bypass
specifically for blessing values from these sources. This allows an
application to enforce Trusted Types even if their application uses a
custom sanitizer or the bypassSecurityTrust functions, knowing that
compromises to either of these two sources may lead to arbitrary script
execution. In the future Angular will provide a way to implement
custom sanitizers in a manner that makes better use of Trusted Types.

When reading globals such as `ngDevMode` the read should be guarded by `typeof ngDevMode` otherwise it will throw if not

The @types/trusted-types type definitions are currently imported in
types.d.ts, which causes them to eventually be imported in core.d.ts.
This forces anyone compiling against @angular/core to provide the
@types/trusted-types package in their compilation unit, which we don't
want.
To address this, get rid of the @types/trusted-types and instead import
a minimal version of the Trusted Types type definitions directly into
Angular's codebase.
Update the existing references to Trusted Types to point to the new
definitions.

Address a Trusted Types violation that occurs in createNamedArrayType
during development mode. Instead of passing strings directly to "new
Function", use the Trusted Types compatible function constructor exposed
by the Trusted Types policy.
PR Close#39209
Chrome currently does not support passing TrustedScript to the Function
constructor, and instead fails with a Trusted Types violation when
called. As the Function constructor is used in a handful of places
within Angular, such as in the JIT compiler and named_array_type, the
workaround proposed on the following page is implemented:
https://github.com/w3c/webappsec-trusted-types/wiki/Trusted-Types-for-function-constructor
To be precise, it constructs a string representing an anonymous function
in a way that is equivalent to what the Function constructor does,
promotes it to a TrustedScript and then calls eval.
To facilitate backwards compatibility, new Function is used directly in
environments that do not support Trusted Types.

Add a module that provides a Trusted Types policy for use internally by
Angular. The policy is created lazily and stored in a module-local
variable. For now the module does not allow configuring custom policies
or policy names, and instead creates its own policy with 'angular' as a
fixed policy name. This is to more easily support tree-shakability.
Helper functions for unsafely converting strings to each of the three
Trusted Types are also introduced, with documentation that make it clear
that their use requires a security review. When Trusted Types are not
available, these helper functions fall back to returning strings.

Remove `looseIdentical` implementation and instead use the ES2015 `Object.is` in its place.
They behave exactly the same way except for `+0`/`-0`.
`looseIdentical(+0, -0)` => `true`
`Object.is(+0, -0)` => `false`
Other than the difference noted above, this is not be a breaking change because:
1. `looseIdentical` is a private API
2. ES2015 is listed as a mandatory polyfill in the [browser support
guide](https://angular.io/guide/browser-support#mandatory-polyfills)
3. Also note that `Ivy` already uses `Object.is` in `bindingUpdated`.

When using `platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule()`, it is possible
to set `defaultEncapsulation` and `preserveWhitespaces` as default
configuration to influence how components are compiled. When compiling
components in JIT with Ivy, these options were not taken into account.
This commit publishes the options to be globally available, so that the
lazy compilation of JIT components has access to the configured
bootstrap options. Note that this approach does not allow changing the
options once they have been set, as Ivy's compilation model does not
allow for multiple compilations to exist at the same time.
For applications that bootstrap multiple modules, it is now required
to provide the exact same bootstrap options. An error is logged if
incompatible bootstrap options are provided, in which case the updated
options will be ignored.
