We have some internal proxies for all of the Jasmine functions, as well as some other helpers. This code hasn't been touched in more than 5 years, it can lead to confusion and it isn't really necessary since the same can be achieved using Jasmine.
These changes remove most of the code and clean up our existing unit tests.

`Location.go` does not trigger the browser's `popstate` event because
the Angular Router uses `pushState` and `replaceState`. This can be
confusing when calling `Location.go` and using `Location.subscribe`.
This commit clarifies the behavior of `Location.subscribe` and points
developers to the `onUrlChanges` subscription instead.

Update the supported range of node versions for to be less restrictive, no longer causing
yarn or npm to fail engine's checks for future versions of node.
While this change will no longer cause yarn or npm to fail these engine's check, this does
not reflect a change in the officially supported versions of node for Angular. Angular
continues to maintain support for Active LTS and Maintenance LTS versions of node.

The `ViewportScroller` figures out which element to scroll into view using `document.getElementById`. The problem is that it won't find elements inside the shadow DOM.
These changes add some extra logic that goes through all the shadow roots to look for the element.

Add new method `historyGo`, that will let
the user navigate to a specific page from session history identified by its
relative position to the current page.
We add some tests to `location_spec.ts` to validate the behavior of the
`historyGo` and `forward` methods.
Add more tests for `location_spec` to test `location.historyGo(0)`, `location.historyGo()`,
`location.historyGo(100)` and `location.historyGo(-100)`. We also add new tests for
`Integration` spec to validate the navigation when we using
`location#historyGo`.
Update the `historyGo` function docs
Note that this was made an optional function in the abstract classes to
avoid a breaking change. Because our location classes use `implements PlatformLocation`
rather than `extends PlatformLocation`, simply adding a default
implementation was not sufficient to make this a non-breaking change.
While we could fix the classes internal to Angular, this would still have been
a breaking change for any external developers who may have followed our
implementations as an example.

The moved `XhrFactory` still needs to be available from `@angular/common/http`
for some libraries that were built prior to 12.0.0, otherwise they cannot be
used in applications built post-12.0.0.
This commit adds back the re-export of `XhrFactory` and deprecates it.
PR Close#41393
With this change we move `XhrFactory` to the root entrypoint of `@angular/commmon`, this is needed so that we can configure `XhrFactory` DI token at a platform level, and not add a dependency between `@angular/platform-browser` and `@angular/common/http`.
Currently, when using `HttpClientModule` in a child module on the server, `ReferenceError: XMLHttpRequest is not defined` is being thrown because the child module has its own Injector and causes `XhrFactory` provider to be configured to use `BrowserXhr`.
Therefore, we should configure the `XhrFactory` at a platform level similar to other Browser specific providers.
BREAKING CHANGE:
`XhrFactory` has been moved from `@angular/common/http` to `@angular/common`.
**Before**
```ts
import {XhrFactory} from '@angular/common/http';
```
**After**
```ts
import {XhrFactory} from '@angular/common';
```

A long-requested feature for HttpClient is the ability to store and retrieve
custom metadata for requests, especially in interceptors. This commit
implements this functionality via a new context object for requests.
Each outgoing HttpRequest now has an associated "context", an instance of
the HttpContext class. An HttpContext can be provided when making a request,
or if not then an empty context is created for the new request. This context
shares its lifecycle with the entire request, even across operations that
change the identity of the HttpRequest instance such as RxJS retries.
The HttpContext functions as an expando. Users can create typed tokens as instances of HttpContextToken, and
read/write a value for the key from any HttpContext object.
This commit implements the HttpContext functionality. A followup commit will
add angular.io documentation.

The `DomAdapter` is present in all Angular apps and its methods aren't tree shakeable.
These changes remove the methods that either aren't being used anymore or were only
used by our own tests. Note that these changes aren't breaking, because the adapter
is an internal API.
The following methods were removed:
* `getProperty` - only used within our own tests.
* `log` - Guaranteed to be defined on `console`.
* `logGroup` and `logGroupEnd` - Only used in one place. It was in the DomAdapter for built-in null checking.
* `logGroupEnd` - Only used in one place. It was placed in the DomAdapter for built in null checking.
* `performanceNow` - Only used in one place that has to be invoked through the browser console.
* `supportsCookies` - Unused.
* `getCookie` - Unused.
* `getLocation` and `getHistory` - Only used in one place which appears to have access to the DOM
already, because it had direct accesses to `window`. Furthermore, even if this was being used
in a non-browser context already, the `DominoAdapter` was set up to throw an error.
The following APIs were changed to be more compact:
* `supportsDOMEvents` - Changed to a readonly property.
* `remove` - No longer returns the removed node.

This is necessary for closure compiler in order to support cross chunk code motion.
I'm intentionally not annotating these call sites with @__PURE__ at the moment because
build-optimizer does it within the Angular CLI build. In the future we might want to consider
having both annotations here in case we change how build-optimizer works.

In the new behavior Angular cleanups `popstate` and `hashchange` event listeners
when the root view gets destroyed, thus event handlers are not added twice
when the application is bootstrapped again.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Methods of the `PlatformLocation` class, namely `onPopState` and `onHashChange`,
used to return `void`. Now those methods return functions that can be called
to remove event handlers.

This change fixes an incompatibility between the old `@angular/http` package
and its successor (`@angular/common/http`) by re-introducing the types that were supported before.
It now allows to use number and boolean directly as HTTP params, instead of having to convert it to string first.
Before:
this.http.get('/api/config', { params: { page: `${page}` } });
After:
this.http.get('/api/config', { params: { page }});
`HttpParams` has also been updated to have most of its methods accept number or boolean values.
Fixes#23856
BREAKING CHANGE:
The methods of the `HttpParams` class now accept `string | number | boolean`
instead of `string` for the value of a parameter.
If you extended this class in your application,
you'll have to update the signatures of your methods to reflect these changes.
