When an app version is detected as broken, the SW calls the
`Driver#versionFailed()` method. Previously, this method would in turn
call the `Driver#sync()` method, which writes some metadata about the
SW's state to the `ngsw:/:db:contol` cache. More specifically,
`Driver#sync()` persists info about all known app versions, which one is
the latest and also what version each client is assigned to.
However, no relevant info is changed inside `Driver#versionFailed()`, so
the call to `Driver#sync()` is redundant (since there are no changes
that need to be synced with the cache). This is a left-over from
before #43518, when `Driver#versionFailed()` used to update version
assignments and thus did require synchronization with the cache.
This commit removes the redundant `Driver#sync()` call to avoid an
unnecessary write to the cache.

Previously, all asset-groups from `ngsw-config.json` were processed in
parallel. For each asset-group, we retrieved all files for the current
build, filtered out files that were already matched by other
asset-groups, determined which of the remaining files belonged to the
current asset-group and generated entries for the `ngsw.json` manifest.
This process was susceptible to race conditions when there were files
that would be matched by multiple asset-groups. This made the generation
of the `ngsw.json` manifest non-deterministic and violated the rule that
each file would belong to the first asset-group that matched it (based
on the asset-groups' order of appearance in `ngsw-config.json`), thus
leading to broken ServiceWorker behavior.
This commit fixes it by ensuring that the generation process is
deterministic and that asset-groups are processed in the proper order.
NOTE 1:
The generation process has been broken since the beginning, but we have
only noticed this recently. This is possibly related to the CLI's
switching from a virtual file system host (which has more consistent
timing characteristics) to the Node.js built-in `fs.promises` in
angular/angular-cli@d3bc530c10.
NOTE 2:
This commit also ensures that files in the `ngsw.json` hash-table are in
alphabetic order. Previously, the files were added to the hash-table in
blocks corresponding to each asset-group.
This change is not necessary (i.e. the order of keys in the hash-table
makes no difference in behavior), but it makes it easier to scan for a
file (for example, for debugging purposes).

Previously, when a version was found to be broken, any clients assigned
to that version were unassigned (and either assigned to the latest
version or to none if the latest version was the broken one). A version
could be considered broken for several reasons, but most often it is a
response for a hashed asset that eiher does not exist or contains
different content than the SW expects. See
https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/28114#issuecomment-923122967
for more details.
However, assigning a client to a different version (or the network) in
the middle of a session, turned out to be more risky than keeping it on
the same version. For angular.io, for example, it has led to #28114.
This commit avoids making things worse when identifying a broken version
by keeping existing clients to their assigned version (but ensuring that
no new clients are assigned to the broken version).
NOTE:
Reloading the page generates a new client ID, so it is like a new client
for the SW, even if the tab and URL are the same.

Previously, the ServiceWorker assumed that a client found in
`clientVersionMap` would exist (i.e. it could be retrieved via
`clients.get()`). However, if a browser tab had been closed, the
corresponding client (while present in `clientVersionMap`, which is only
updated on ServiceWorker initialization) would not be retrievable via
`clients.get()`.
This commit fixes it by checking whether the client exists before trying
to notify it about an unrecoverable state.

The ServiceWorker needs to keep track of some metadata for unhashed
asset resources to know if/when they might need to be revalidated. This
applies to resources that do not exist on the filesystem at build-time
(and thus cannot be hashed), such as fonts or images loaded from
external sources. For hashed resources, this metadata is irrelevant,
because the hash is enough to verify that the content hasn't changed and
no revalidation is necessary.
Previously, the ServiceWorker would store such metadata for hashed
resources as well, even though it would never be used (thus taking up
space unnecessarily).
This commit fixes it by not storing metadata for hashed resources, i.e.
those that are included in an asset-group's `hashes` array.

Previously, the SW was only able to clean up caches for app-versions
found in the `Driver`'s `versions` map. If (for some reason) the
`Driver` failed to load a valid stored state (including app-versions)
and ended up with an [empty `versions` map][1], any obsolete versions
would remain in the cache storage. This case was rare but possible.
This commit makes the cache clean-up logic more robust by ensuring that
all app-version caches are removed unless they are currently used by the
SW to serve active clients (with the exception of the latest
app-version, which is always retained).

This commit simplifies/systemizes accessing the `CacheStorage` through a
wrapper, with the following benefits:
- Ensuring a consistent cache name prefix is used for all caches
(without having to repeat the prefix in different places).
- Allowing referring to caches using their name without the common
cache name prefix.
- Exposing the cache name on cache instances, which for example makes it
easier to delete caches without having to keep track of the name used
to create them.
PR Close#42622
This commit improves the cache names generated by the ServiceWorker by
making them shorter and non-repetitive. In particular, the following
changes are made:
- Data-group cache names no longer include the `dynamic` infix, since it
does not add any value.
Before: `ngsw:<...>:data:dynamic:<...>`
After: `ngsw:<...>:data:<...>`
- `CacheDatabase` table names no longer include the `ngsw:<path>` prefix
twice.
Before: `ngsw:<path>:db:ngsw:<path>:<...>`
After: `ngsw:<path>:db:<...>`
NOTE 1:
This change will result in different cache names being generated for the
same app-versions with the new SericeWorker script. This means that some
of the previously cached data will need to be re-downloaded (because the
ServiceWorker will not be able to re-use the old caches), but that
should be transparent for the end user.
While possible, adding logic to allow the ServiceWorker to retrieve data
from the old caches is not worth the extra complecity and maintenance
cost.
NOTE 2:
Generating different cache names for some of the caches means that the
ServiceWorker will not be able to clean-up some of the old caches. This
will be taken care of in a subsequent commit that will rework the
clean-up logic to be more robust (covering changes such as this one and
other edgecases).

The ServiceWorker assigns an app-version to a each client to ensure that
all subsequent requests for a client are served using the same
app-version. The assignment is done based on the client ID.
Previously, the ServiceWorker would only try to read the client's ID off
of the `FetchEvent`'s `clientId` property. However, for navigation
requests the new client's ID will be set on [resultingClientId][1],
while `clientId` will either be empty or hold the ID of the client where
the request initiated from. See also related discussions in
w3c/ServiceWorker#870 and w3c/ServiceWorker#1266.
In theory, this could lead to the navigation request (i.e. `index.html`)
being served from a different app-version than the subsequent
sub-resource requests (i.e. assets). In practice, the likelihood of this
happening is probably very low though, since it would require the latest
app-version to be updated between the initial navigation request and the
first sub-resource request, which should happen very shortly after the
navigation request.
This commit ensures that the correct client ID is determined even for
navigation requests by also taking the `resultingClientId` property into
account.

This commit reverts commit [_fix(service-worker): handle error with
ErrorHandler_](https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/39990/commits/552419d).
With Angular v11.0.4 and commit [_fix(service-worker): handle error with
ErrorHandler_](https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/39990/commits/552419d)
Angular start to send all service worker registration errors to the Angular
standard `ErrorHandler#handleError()` interface, instead of logging them in the
console.
But users existing `ErrorHandler#handleError()` implementations are not adapted
to service worker registration errors and it might result in broken apps or
bad UI.
Passing to `ErrorHandler` is desirable for some and undesirable for others and
the same is true for passing to `console.error()`.
But `console.error()` was used for a long time and thus it is preferable to keep
it as long as a good solution is not found with `ErrorHandler`.
Right now it's hard to define a good solution for `ErrorHandler` because:
1. Given the nature of the SW registration errors (usually outside the control
of the developer, different error messages on each browser/version, often
quite generic error messages, etc.), passing them to the `ErrorHandler` is
not particularly helpful.
2. While `ErrorHandler#handleError()` accepts an argument of type `any` (so
theoretically we could pass any object without changing the public API), most
apps expect an `Error` instance, so many apps could break if we changed the
shape.
3. Ideally, the Angular community want to re-think the `ErrorHandler` API
and add support for being able to pass additional metadata for each error
(such as the source of the error or some identifier, etc.). This change,
however, could potentially affect many apps out there, so the community must
put some thought into it and design it in a way that accounts for the needs
of all packages (not just the SW).
4. Given that we want to more holistically revisit the `ErrorHandler` API, any
changes we make in the short term to address the issue just for the SW will
make it more difficult/breaky for people to move to a new API in the future.
To see the whole explanation see GitHub PR #40236.

Previously, the SW would wait to become idle before executing scheduled
tasks (including checks for newer app versions). It was considered idle
when it hadn't received any request for at least 5 seconds. As a result,
if the app performed polling (i.e. sent requests to the server) in a
shorter than 5 seconds interval, the SW would never detect and update to
a newer app version.
Related issue: #40207
This commit fixes this by adding a max delay to `IdleScheduler` to
ensure that no scheduled task will remain pending for longer than the
specified max delay.

PR Close#40234
Previously, the `Driver#notifyClientsAboutUnrecoverableState()` method
would not wait for the completion of the promises created to notify the
clients. Theoretically, this could result in the SW instance's getting
destroyed by the browser before all clients have been notified. This is
extremely unlikely to happen in practice, since the async operations are
very quick, but it _is_ theoretically possible.
This commit ensures that the SW instance will remain alive while
notifying the clients by making `notifyClientsAboutUnrecoverableState()`
