A lot of our tests are wrapped in `{}` which serves no purpose, aside from increasing the nesting level and, in some cases, causing confusion. The braces appear to be a leftover from a time when all tests were wrapped in a `function main() {}`. The function declaration was removed in #21053, but the braces remained, presumably because it was easier to search&replace for `function main()`, but not to remove the braces at the same time.

This change adjust the equality comparator used by NgSwitch - now it
defaults to === from previously used ==. This change is based on the
following reasoning:
- align behaviour with the built-in switch block);
- improve performance (avoid type coercion);
- enable better type-checking.
BREAKING CHANGE:
the NgSwitch directive now defaults to the === equality operator,
migrating from the previously used ==. NgSwitch expressions and / or
individual condition values need adjusting to this stricter equality
check. The added warning message should help pinpointing NgSwitch
usages where adjustements are needed.

This commit updates the directives presents in the `CommonModule` and annotates them with the `standalone: true` flag. With that flag, the directives can now be imported individually, as well as imported via the `CommonModule`.

This commit updates the code around the `RuntimeError` class to make it more reusable between packages (currently it's only usable inside the `core` package). Specifically:
- the error formatting logic was updated to handle cases when there is no error message provided
- there is no special Set that contains a set of error codes for which we have guides on angular.io. Instead, this is now encoded into the error code itself (making such codes negative integers). Having a separate Set makes it non-tree-shakable, which we want to avoid.
This change should allow to employ the `RuntimeError` class in other packages to further standardize this subsystem and make the errors thrown by the framework consistent.
As a part of the refactoring, the `common` package code was also updated to follow the same logic as `core`, since the `RuntimeError` class was used there as well.

One of the tests was creating TestComponent instance _and_ using
global state making this test not predictable. Fixing the test
by making sure that TestComponent is instantiated only once.
