The cached file-system was implemented to speed up ngcc
processing, but in reality most files are not accessed many times
and there is no noticeable degradation in speed by removing it.
Benchmarking `ngcc -l debug` for AIO on a local machine
gave a range of 196-236 seconds with the cache and 197-224
seconds without the cache.
Moreover, when running in parallel mode, ngcc has a separate
file cache for each process. This results in excess memory usage.
Notably the master process, which only does analysis of entry-points
holds on to up to 500Mb for AIO when using the cache compared to
only around 30Mb when not using the cache.
Finally, the file-system cache being incorrectly primed with file
contents before being processed has been the cause of a number
of bugs. For example https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/16860#issuecomment-614694269.

The flag that determines whether something should be able to inject from `viewProviders` is opt-out and the pipes weren't opted out, resulting in them being able to see the viewProviders if they're placed on a component host node.
Fixes#36146.

Previously, when a document included `_`, the autoLinker will try to
generate a link, e.g from `core/ɵComponentDef._`. This commit adds it
to the ignored words to prevent that.
PR Close#36316
Previously, the auto linker generated links without an `href` when the
API was private. This commit fixes this by making sure that the `path`
of the document is not empty.

Previously our CI during the setup process has made requests
to the Github API to determine the target branch and shas.
With this change, this information is now determined via git
commands using pipeline parameters from CircleCI.

In "Getting started" guide pipes are not intoduced anywhere but are used in the guide.
Added refrence to pipes for better consistency in the tutorial.

This commit fixes how the language service evaluates the compatibility
of types to work with arbitrary union types. As a result, compatibility
checks are now more strict and can catch similarities or differences
more clearly.
```
number|string == string|null // OK
number|string == number // OK
number|string == null // not comparable
number == string // not comparable
```
Using Ivy as a backend should provide these diagnoses for free, but we
can backfill them for now.

The change in e041ac6f0d
to support sending unlocker process output to the main ngcc
console output prevents messages require that the main process
relinquishes the event-loop to allow the `stdout.on()` handler to
run. This results in none of the messages being written when ngcc
is run in `--no-async` mode, and some messages failing to be
written if the main process is killed (e.g. ctrl-C).
It appears that the problem with Windows and detached processes
is known - see https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/3596#issuecomment-250890218.
But in the meantime, this commit is a workaround, where non-Windows
`inherit` the main process `stdout` while on Windows it reverts
to the async handler approach, which is better than nothing.

This rewrite changes headings to focus on user tasks rather than features,
verifies that content is up-to-date and complete, removes colloquial phrases,
adds prerequisites, and expands on a task-based section in the beginning
(a quick reference).
