Currently the `HttpClient` always wraps errors from XHR requests, but
the underlying errors are always of type `ProgressEvent`, or don't have
a native error if the status code is just indicating failure (e.g. 404).
This behavior does not match in the `TestRequest` class provided by
`@angular/common/http/testing` where errors are considered being
of type `ErrorEvent`. This is incorrect because `ErrorEvent`s provide
information for errors in scripts or files which are evaluated. Since
the `HttpClient` never evaluates scripts/files, and also since XHR requests
clearly are documented to emit `ProgressEvent`'s, we should change the
`TestSupport` to retrieve such `ProgressEvent`'s instead of incompatible
objects of type `ErrorEvent`.
In favor of having a deprecation period, we keep supporting `ErrorEvent`
in the `TestRequest.error` signature. Eventually, we can remove this
signature in the future.

DEPRECATED: `TestRequest` from `@angular/common/http/testing` no longer
accepts `ErrorEvent` when simulating XHR errors. Instead instances of
`ProgressEvent` should be passed, matching with the native browser behavior.
PR Close#36082
Updates all API goldens to match with the new NPM package output
which now contains partial declaration static members. These
can serve as additional checks guarding against changes to
the public API (e.g. if a selector of a directive changes accidentally)
PR Close#43431
Moves the public api .d.ts files from tools/public_api_guard to
goldens/public-api.
Additionally, provides a README in the goldens directory and a script
assist in testing the current state of the repo against the goldens as
well as a command for accepting all changes to the goldens in a single
command.
