In some situations, calling `markForCheck` can result in an infinite
loop in seemingly valid scenarios. When a transplanted view is inserted
before its declaration, it gets refreshed in the retry loop of
`detectChanges`. At this point, the `Dirty` flag has been cleared from
all parents. Calling `markForCheck` marks the insertion tree up to the
root `Dirty`. If the declaration is checked again as a result (i.e.
because it has default change detection) and is reachable because its
parent was marked `Dirty`, this can cause an infinite loop. The
declaration is refreshed again, so the insertion is marked for refresh
(again). We enter an infinite loop if the insertion tree always calls
`markForCheck` for some reason (i.e. `{{createReplayObservable() | async}}`).
While the case above does fall into an infinite loop, it also truly is a
problem in the application. While it's not an infinite synchronous loop,
the declaration and insertion are infinitely dirty and will be refreshed
on every change detection round.
Usually `markForCheck` does not have this problem because the `Dirty`
flag is not cleared until the very end of change detection. However, if
the view did not already have the `Dirty` flag set, it is never cleared
because we never entered view refresh. One solution to this problem
could be to clear the `Dirty` flag even after skipping view refresh but
traversing to children.

clang-format seems to have problems with the call signature for
`input.required`. This commit works around the formatting issues that
obfuscate the signature. Users will actually see similar output when
they are looking for the `input` function definition of `@angular/core`.

This commit separates `InputSignal` for input signals with transforms.
The reason being that most of the time, signal inputs are not using
transforms and the generics are rather confusing.
Especially for users with inferred types displayed in their IDEs, the
input signal types are seemingly complex, even if no transform is used.
For this reason, we are introducing a new type called
`InputSignalWithTransform`. This type will be used for inputs with
transforms, while non-transform inputs just use `InputSignal`.
A notable fact is that `InputSignal` extends `InputSignalWithTransform`,
with the "identity transform". i.e. there is no transform. This allows
us to share the code for input signals. In practice, we don't expect
users to pass around `InputSignal`'s anyway.

This test ensures that the `ExpressionChanged...` error does not happen
when signals are updated in a view that is attached to `ApplicationRef`
but was already checked. This was fixed in 432afd1ef4
which actually consequently fixes it for regular `markForCheck` as well.

It was always the intent to have `afterRender` hooks allow updating
state, as long as those state updates specifically mark views for
(re)check. This commit delivers that behavior. Developers can now use
`afterRender` hooks to perform further updates within the same change
detection cycle rather than needing to defer this work to another round
(i.e. `queueMicrotask(() => <<updateState>>)`). This is an important
change to support migrating from the `queueMicrotask`-style deferred
updates, which are not entirely compatible with zoneless or event `NgZone` run
coalescing.
When using a microtask to update state after a render, it
doesn't work with coalescing because the render may not have happened
yet (coalescing and zoneless use `requestAnimationFrame` while the
default for `NgZone` is effectively a microtask-based change detection
scheduler). Second, when using a `microtask` _during_ change detection to defer
updates to the next cycle, this can cause updates to be split across
multiple frames with run coalescing and with zoneless (again, because of
`requestAnimationFrame`/`macrotask` change detection scheduling).

This change updates the `checkNoChanges` pass to only run once after
both view refresh and `afterRender` hooks execute rather than both
before and after the hooks. The original motivation was to specifically
ensure that the application was in a "clean state" before running the
`afterRender` hooks and ensure that `afterRender` hooks don't "fix"
`ExpressionChanged...` errors. This, however, adds to the complexity and
cost of running change detection in dev mode. Instead, the
`checkNoChanges` pass runs once we have done all render-related work and
want to ensure that the application state has been synced to the DOM
(without additional changes).

Errors during change detection are terminal and we do not generally
attempt to continue processing or recover after one occurs. This helps clean
up the `tick` implementation with respect to running `afterRender` hooks.

When the zoneless scheduler is provided, we want to update the behavior
of `ComponentFixture` to address common issues and painpoints in testing.
Developers should never have to call `detectChanges` on a fixture
manually. Instead of calling `detectChanges` after performing an
action that updates state and requies a template refresh, developers
should wait for change detection to run because the update needs to also have
notified the scheduler. If this was not the case, the component would
not work correctly in the application. Calling `detectChanges` to force
an update could hide real bugs.
This commit also updates the zoneless tests to uses `ComponentFixture`
instead of manually attaching to the `ApplicationRef` and rewriting a
lot of the helpers (`getDebugNode`, `isStable` as a value, `whenStable` as a
Promise).

In some bundling scenarios, there may be local references to `ngDevMode` that need to be kept in sync with the global variable. This becomes hard to impossible if the global is reassigned. This allows setting the global to an empty object instead of `true` and preserve identity during `initNgDevMode`.

This commit splits the query implementation and instructions
into a separate files. This is a pattern frequently used by

Prior to this commit, `TestBed` would require tests call `flushEffects`
or `fixture.detectChanges` in order to execute effects. In general, we
want to discourage authoring tests like this because it makes the timing
of change detection and effects differ from what happens in the
application. Instead, developers should perform actions and `await` (or
`flush`/`tick` when using `fakeAsync`) some `Promise` so that Angular
can react to the changes in the same way that it does in the
application.
Note that this still _allows_ developers to flush effects synchronously
with `flushEffects` and `detectChanges` but also enables the <action>,
`await` pattern described above.

Enables signal inputs for existing Zone based components.
This is a next step we are taking to bring signal inputs earlier to the Angular community.
The goal is to enable early access for the ecosystem to signal inputs, while we are continuing
development of full signal components as outlined in the RFC. This will allow the ecosystem
to start integrating signals more deeply, prepare for future migrations, and improves code quality
and DX for existing components (especially for OnPush).
Based on our work on full signal components, we've gathered more information and learned
new things. We've improved the API by introducing a way to intuitively declare required inputs,
as well as improved the API around initial values. We even support non-primitive initial values
as the first argument to the `input` function now.
```ts
@Directive({..})
export class MyDir {
firstName = input<string>(); // string|undefined
lastName = input.required<string>(); // string
age = input(0); // number
```

This allows us to ensure signal inputs and a potential JIT transform
remain single file compilation compatible. The consequences are that
options need to be statically analyzable more strictly, compared to
loosened restrictions with static interpretation where e.g. `alias`
can be defined through a shared variable.

Whenever a required input is accessed too early in a
directive/component, the signal input will throw an error.
This is necessary so that we can support required inputs
with intuitive typings that do not include `undefined` for
the short period of time where Angular is creating the component and
then assigning inputs later (Angular currently has no way of setting
inputs as part of the class creation when `new Dir()` happens)

This commit changes the `HasTransform` flag to be only concerned with
decorator inputs. This allows us to automatically detect signal input
transforms without reliance on the flag, resulting in less complexity in
the compiler (as outlined in the design doc) and various other places,
while it also allows us to simplify JIT support for signal inputs
because there would be no need to capture the "hasTransform" state in
the decorator so that JIT can generate the according input flags.
`isSignal` will still persist as an input flag to allow for monomorphic
and highly efficient distinguishing at runtime, whether an input is
signal based or not. JIT transform will also need to propagate this
information to the runtime somehow.
PR Close#53808
We are adding internal support for declaring signal inputs via the
`@Input` decorator. This is needed for JIT unit testing, or JIT
applications.
In JIT, Angular is not able to recognize signal inputs due to the
lack of static reflection metadata. Decorators attach their information
on the class- without it needing to be instantiated. This allows Angular
to know inputs when preparing/generating the directive definition. With
signal inputs this is not possible- so we need a way to tell Angular
about inputs for JIT applications. We've decided that this is not
something users should have to deal with, so a transform will be added
in a follow-up that will automatically derive/and add the decorators
for signal inputs when requested in JIT environments.

This commit moves the implementation of the change detection scheduler
used for testing to angular/core along with a (private export) provider function.
Note: Naming of the provider function is absolutely not final (and not
public API). I would prefer one that did not mention "zones"
but the easiest thing for now is to have a "Zone" and "Zoneless" naming
scheme.
