With the introduction of `EnvironmentInjector`, we added an operation to run
a function with access to `inject` tokens from that injector. This operation
only worked for `EnvironmentInjector`s and not for element/node injectors.
This commit deprecates `EnvironmentInjector.runInContext` in favor of a
standalone API `runInInjectionContext`, which supports any type of injector.
DEPRECATED: `EnvironmentInjector.runInContext` is now deprecated, with
`runInInjectionContext` functioning as a direct replacement:
```typescript
// Previous method version (deprecated):
envInjector.runInContext(fn);
// New standalone function:
runInInjectionContext(envInjector, fn);
```

This commit moves the providers for `NgZone`-based change detection to a
single provider function. This function is currently called by default
in all places where `NgZone` was provided
(`bootstrapApplication`, `bootstrapModule`, and `TestBed`).
When we want to make Angular applications zoneless by default, we
can make a public provider method that has to be used in order to enable
the zone change detection features. When this method is not called,
Angular would use `NoopNgZone` by default and not initialize any
subscriptions to the `NgZone` stability events.
Side note: There are actually two places that `NgZone` is provided for `TestBed`
(providers in `compileTestModule` and `BrowserTestingModule`). This
likely doesn't need to be in both locations.

While unlikely, prior to this change it was possible to provide a nested array of styles to the render. This required the framework to handle this by doing a flatten operation. This change also renames the `flattenStyles` method as it no longer flattens the styles.

`makeEnvironmentProviders` constructs the wrapped `EnvironmentProviders`
type, which can only be used in environment injectors (not element
injectors). It makes sense that `makeEnvironmentProviders` should be able
to accept existing `EnvironmentProviders`-wrapped providers, since it will
be providing the same guarantee, but the current types do not allow this.
This commit fixes the typings to allow nesting `EnvironmentProviders` and
adds a test to verify that it will work.

This commit updates the logic related to the attribute and property binding rules for <iframe> elements. There is a set of <iframe> attributes that may affect the behavior of an iframe and this change enforces that these attributes are only applied as static attributes, making sure that they are taken into account while creating an <iframe>.
If Angular detects that some of the security-sensitive attributes are applied as an attribute or property binding, it throws an error message, which contains the name of an attribute that is causing the problem and the name of a Component where an iframe is located.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Existing iframe usages may have security-sensitive attributes applied as an attribute or property binding in a template or via host bindings in a directive. Such usages would require an update to ensure compliance with the new stricter rules around iframe bindings.

This commit updates the logic related to the attribute order on iframes and makes the rules more strict. There is a set of iframe attributes that may affect the behavior of an iframe, this change enforces that these attributes are applied before an `src` or `srcdoc` attributes are applied to an iframe, so that they are taken into account.
If Angular detects that some of the attributes are set after the `src` or `srcdoc`, it throws an error message, which contains the name of ann attribute that is causing the problem and the name of a Component where an iframe is located. In most cases, it should be enough to change the order of attributes in a template to move the `src` or `srcdoc` ones to the very end.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Existing iframe usages may have `src` or `srcdoc` preceding other attributes. Such usages may need to be updated to ensure compliance with the new stricter rules around iframe bindings.

This commit introduces a new type `EnvironmentProviders` which can be used
in contexts where Angular accepted `Provider`s destined for
`EnvironmentInjector`s. This includes contexts such as `@NgModule.providers`
and `Route.providers`.
The new type is useful for preventing such providers from accidentally
ending up in `@Component.providers`. It can be used as the return type of
provider functions (such as `provideRouter`) to enforce this safety.
Because `Provider` allows `any[]` nested arrays, the compile-time safety
provided by `EnvironmentProviders` is easily circumvented. However, the
runtime shape of `EnvironmentProviders` is not compatible with component
injectors and will result in a runtime error if it leaks through (NG0207).
A new function `makeEnvironmentProviders` is used to construct this new type
from an array of providers.
The existing `importProvidersFrom` operation previously returned a very
similar type `ImportedNgModuleProviders` which had the same goal. This
machinery is switched over to use the new `EnvironmentProviders` interface
instead (in fact, `ImportedNgModuleProviders` is now just an alias to
`EnvironmentProviders`).

This change adds the setInput method to the ComponentRef.
Previously users had to call `componentRef.instance['inputName']`
to change inputs of a dynamically created component. This had
several problems:
* OnPush components were not marked for check and thus very
difficult to test;
* input aliasing was not take into account - a property name
on a component could have been different from the actual input
name so setting input properties was fragile;
* manually setting input propertie would NOT trigger the
`NgOnChanges` lifecycle hook.
This modifications unifies `@Input` accross dynamically created
components and the ones referenced in templates. This also opens
doors to other changes: as an example router could use this new
method to set `@Input`s from router params.

`inject()` originated as a private API and was made public to support
`InjectionToken` factories in Ivy. For code-size and performance reasons,
when we code generate `inject()` calls we use a bit field to indicate the
various injection modes (optional, skip-self, etc). However, this doesn't
make for a very nice public API.
This commit introduces an alternative object-based API for options. All 4
flags are supported as `boolean` fields on an options object, and converted
to bit flags internally. If TypeScript can prove that `optional` injection
is not requested, it can narrow the return type and remove the `null` type.
DEPRECATED:
The bit field signature of `inject()` has been deprecated, in favor of the
new options object. Correspondingly, `InjectFlags` is deprecated as well.

This commit introduces a new API on `EnvironmentInjector` to run a function
in the context of the injector. This makes `inject()` available within the
body of the function to inject dependencies. We expect this functionality to
be very useful for designing ergonomic APIs both in and out of Angular, as
it should allow for a smaller and more functional API style.
Note that it's possible to implement nearly identical functionality in user
code already today:
```typescript
function runInContext<T>(injector: EnvironmentInjector, fn: () => T): T {
const token = new InjectionToken<T>('TOKEN');
const tmpInjector = createEnvironmentInjector([
{provide: token, useFactory: () => fn()},
], injector);
return tmpInjector.get(token);
}
```
The factory provider for `token` in this example runs in the context of the
`tmpInjector`, giving it access to `inject` that can retrieve values from
`injector` as well. This is nearly identical, although because of the child
injector `self` and `skipSelf` injection options don't function correctly.

Previously, when instantiating a component, Angular would look in the DI
hierarchy for `RendererFactory2`. Any DI tree which rolls up through an
application injector (that is, one created with `BrowserModule`) should be
able to provide this interface. If not found, Angular would switch to the
experimental `Renderer3` mechanism. This switch was designed this way,
because it allowed for the creation of experimental applications where
`RendererFactory2` was not included in the bundle at all.
In this commit, instead of automatically falling back on `Renderer3`-style
rendering, an error is raised instead if `RendererFactory2` is missing from
the DI hierarchy.
