Assure that the same readonly array corresponding to the children query results
is returned for cases where a query is marked as dirty but there were no actual
changes to the content of the results array (this can happen if a view is added
and removed thus marking queries as dirty but not influencing final results).

The newly introduced signal queries would error if no match exists, due to an
invalid read within the query internals.
This commit addresses the crash by allowing there to be no matches.

Currently we have two fake copies of `@angular/core` in the compiler tests which can be out of sync and cause inconsistent tests. These changes reuse a single copy instead.

This updates some tests to use the public imports from `@angular/core` now that they are available,

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.

The `subscribe` methods on `ModelSignal` and `OutputEmitter` were marked as `@internal` which will break when the TCB needs to reference them. These changes make them `@deprecated` temporarily so we can address the properly later.

Fixes that `ɵunwrapWritableSignal` inferring getter functions as not matching the interface of `WritableSignal` instead of preserving them.
PR Close#54252
In a previous commit the TCB was changed to cast the assignment to an input in order to widen its type to allow `WritableSignal`. This ended up breaking existing inputs whose setter has a wider type than its getter. These changes switch to unwrapping the value on the binding side.
PR Close#54252
Reworks the TCB for two-way bindings to make them simpler and to avoid regressions for two-way bindings to generic inputs. The new TCB looks as follows:
```
var _t1: Dir;
var _t2 = _t1.input;
(_t1 as typeof _t2 | WritableSignal<typeof _t2>) = expression;
```
PR Close#54252
Adds support for model inputs in the framework. `model()` returns a writable signal that implicitly defines a input/output pair that can be used either in two-way bindings to keep two values in sync or by binding individually to the input and output. When the value of the `model` changes, it will emit an event with the current value.
Furthermore, these changes expand two-way bindings to accept `WritableSignal`. This will make it easier to transition existing code to signals in a backwards-compatible way.
Example:
```ts
@Directive({
selector: 'counter',
standalone: true,
host: {
'(click)': 'increment()',
}
})
export class Counter {
value = model(0);
increment(): void {
this.value.update(current => current + 1);
}
}
@Component({
template: `<counter [(value)]="count"/> The current count is: {{count()}}`,
})
class App {
count = signal(0);
}
```

This commit improves IDE completion of the `read` option for
signal-based queries.
Currently, TS only matches the first overload when starting out with
defining a query. TS doesn't build up the combination of possible
options from the second overload- so in practice users will only see
IDE completions for the `descendants` option.
This is not a problem for view queries as the only option is `read`, so
TS will always match the overload with the `read` option.
```
class X {
query = contentChild('', {^^ <--
here we should completion for `read` an `descendants`
}
```

This commit adds a JIT transform for signal-based queries, so that
queries are working as expected in JIT environments like `ng test` where
decorator metadata is needed as a prerequisite for the component
definition creation.
This is similar to the JIT transforms for signal inputs etc.

The compileNgModuleFactory dont need to be in the application_ref file (in fact
the whole logic has little to do with ApplicationRef and it is not even called

This commit changes the approach to the reactive node representing query
results: instead of creating a custom node type we can use a computed -
the main change to get there is representing dirty change notification as
a signal (a counter updated every time a query changes its dirty status).
This change is dictated by simplification (we can avoid creation of a custom
signal type) as well as fixes to the multiple issues not covered by the
initial implementation:
- assuring referential stability of results (ex.: the same array instance
returned from child queries until results change);
- per-view results collection to avoid a situation where accessing query
results during view creation would return partial / inconsistent results;
- proper refresh of query results for both live and non-connected consumers.
All the above cases are covered by the additional tests in this commit.

The `listener` instruction currently always assumes RxJS subscribables,
and verifies this via `isSubscribable`. The type narrowing is not
ignored and the type remains `any` given the `ngDevMode` check.
This commit improves type safety, and actually switches to a dedicated
interface for "output subscribable" values. This is needed because
`Subscribable` from `RxJS` is typed to expect an observer in object
literal form- which is not correct and doesn't apply to `EventEmitter`
and matches the form of `.subscribe` we are using in the `listener`
instruction.

This commit introduces the `output()` function and corresponding
runtime code.
In practice, `output()` will defer to `EventEmitter` as outlined in the
RFC, but we are considering limiting the type to a minimal version that
is not coupled with RxJS, less complex, and also has better type safety
around emitting of values.
E.g. currently `EventEmitter.emit` can always be called without
any value, even though the output may be typed to always pass around
values of type `T`. This could cause subtle and confusing bugs.

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

Instead of maintaining individual transforms for `input`, `output`,
`model` etc. we are grouping them directly and the first one matching,
will execute.
This reduces needed traversal through AST and also makes it a little
more clean to write new initializer API metadata transforms.
Note: The Angular JIT transform is now also moving from `tooling.ts`
directly into `/transformers` for more local placement of transformer
logic.

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).
PR Close#54074
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
