DEPRECATED:
The `renderModuleFactory` symbol in `@angular/platform-server` is no longer necessary as of Angular v13.
The `renderModuleFactory` calls can be replaced with `renderModule`.

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)

`@angular/platform-server` provides the foundation for rendering an
Angular app on the server. In order to achieve that, it uses a
server-side DOM implementation (currently [domino][1]).
For rendering on the server to work as closely as possible to running
the app on the browser, we need to make DOM globals (such as `Element`,
`HTMLElement`, etc.), which are normally provided by the browser,
available as globals on the server as well.
Currently, `@angular/platform-server` achieves this by extending the
`global` object with the DOM implementation provided by `domino`. This
assignment happens in the [setDomTypes()][2] function, which is
[called in a `PLATFORM_INITIALIZER`][3]. While this works in most cases,
there are some scenarios where the DOM globals are needed sooner (i.e.
before initializing the platform). See, for example, #24551 and #39950
for more details on such issues.
This commit provides a way to solve this problem by exposing a
side-effect-ful entry-point (`@angular/platform-server/init`), that
shims the `global` object with DOM globals. People will be able to
import this entry-point in their server-rendered apps before
bootstrapping the app (for example, in their `main.server.ts` file).
(See also [#39950 (comment)][4].)
In a future update, the [`universal` schematics][5] will include such an
import by default in newly generated projects.

PR Close#40559
This commit fixes a bug when `useAbsoluteUrl` is set to true and
`ServerPlatformLocation` infers the base url from the supplied
`url`. User should explicitly set the `baseUrl` when they turn on
`useAbsoluteUrl`.
Breaking change:
If you use `useAbsoluteUrl` to setup `platform-server`, you now need to
also specify `baseUrl`.
We are intentionally making this a breaking change in a minor release,
because if `useAbsoluteUrl` is set to `true` then the behavior of the
application could be unpredictable, resulting in issues that are hard to
discover but could be affecting production environments.

In version 10.0.0-next.8, we introduced absolute URL support for
server-based HTTP requests, so long as the fully-resolved URL was
provided in the initial config. However, doing so represents a
breaking change for users who already have their own interceptors
to model this functionality, since our logic executes before all
interceptors fire on a request. See original PR #37071.
Therefore, we introduce a flag to make this change consistent with
v9 behavior, allowing users to opt in to this new behavior. This
commit also fixes two issues with the previous implementation:
1. if the server was initiated with a relative URL, the absolute
URL construction would fail because needed components were empty
2. if the user's absolute URL was on a port, the port would not
be included

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.
