This commit refactors the loadChildren callback execution of the router config loader
into a function that can be used with SSR for the purposes of route extraction.

In order to test components and services which depend on router navigations, such as `ActivatedRoute` instances, tests currently need to provide a fair bit of boilerplate _or_ they can set up a stub for `ActivatedRoute` and list it in the `providers` to override it in `TestBed`. This approach of stubbing the `ActivatedRoute` creates a situation that can easily cause the test to break. The stub often only mocks out the dependencies that the component/service _currently_ needs. This dependencies might change over time and break the test in an unexpected way. In addition, it is difficult to get the structure of `ActivatedRoute` exactly correct.
This change will allow unit tests to quickly set up routes, trigger real navigations in the Router, and get instances of component's to test along with real instances of `ActivatedRoute`. This all comes without needing to know that the component depends on `ActivatedRoute` at all. This becomes more important when considering that a component may be refactored in the future to use `@Input` rather than access data on the `ActivatedRoute` instance (see #18967). Tests which mock out `ActivatedRoute` would all break, but those which use `navigateForTest` would continue to work without needing any updates.

This commit removes the unnecessary `assignExtraOptionsToRouter` helper
function. This helper is not necessary because the options can be
retrieved from DI and assigned during the construction on the Router.
PR Close#48215
This option has already been removed from availability externally. Internally, the last use has been removed
for the type on Route.loadChildren. More testing will be necessary to verify nothing relies on the other
code paths.

This commit extracts the Router's navigation "transitions" to a separate
file. The goal here is twofold:
- Separate the Router's logic into more manageable chunks. Rather than
having to always edit a 1000+ line file, this separates different
pieces into smaller, more focused files
- More importantly, this sets the groundwork for separating the Router
state from the individual navigation transition. That is, it would be
good for the rxjs pipeline to _not_ modify the Router state but only
keep track of its own intermediate stages and emit outwards during
important events. The Router can subscribe to those events and make
updates to its state. This would theoretically allow us to swap those
implementations independently. That is, the Router's state management
can be changed without changing the transition handling and
vice-versa.

This commit breaks out the code in @angular/router needed to support the
deprecated `loadChildren` signature into a separate file, which reduces the
opportunity for conflicts when patching that behavior in g3.

This commit creates and exposes the APIs required to use the Angular Router without importing `RouterModule`.
The newly added APIs are tree-shakable and you can add features using special functions rather than using `ExtraOptions` to control the providers via an internal switch in Router code.
```
const appRoutes: Routes = [];
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent,
{
providers: [
provideRouter(appRoutes,
withDebugTracing(), // enables debug tracing feature
withInMemoryScrolling() // enables scrolling feature
]
}
);
```
This "features" pattern allows for router behavior to evolve in a backwards compatible and tree-shakable way in the future. This approach also makes features more discoverable.
The newly added APIs can be used in any application today (doesn't require an application to be bootstrapped using standalone-based APIs).
Note: APIs added in this commit are released in the "Developer Preview" mode, read more about this mode in Angular docs: https://angular.io/guide/releases#developer-preview

Extracting preloading to a provider moves us towards
thinking about a world where `ExtraOptions` doesn't exist to control
behaviors that are opt-in/opt-out. Instead, these behaviors could be
controlled by the presence (or lackthereof) of the providers which has
the functionality. This is relevant to a world in which we no longer
have the `RouterModule` but instead have something like `provideRouter`
where the features are tree-shakeable.
This change _does not_ make the `RouterPreloader` tree-shakeable inside
`RouterModule.forRoot` because the compiler cannot statically determine
whether it's needed. However, in the `provideRouter` world without
`forRoot`, preloading could be exposed through the provider function
instead, making the `RouterPreloader` and `PreloadingStrategy`
implementations tree-shakeable for those that don't use it (which is the
default - no preloading).

This code mimics behavior that Google Analytics has been using to
prevent duplicate navigations. They set up their own `HybridRoutingService`
location sync to avoid duplicate navigations that came from the Angular
router. This would happen because the Angular router would trigger a
navigation, which would then get picked up by the `$locationShim`, which
would trigger a `$locationChangeStart`, which would then be picked up by
the `setUpLocationSync` watcher here, which would again trigger a
navigation in the Angular Router.
All of this can be prevented by checking if the `navigationId` exists on
the history state object. This property is added by the Angular router
during navigations.

Previously, RouterTestingModule only assigned two of the options within ExtraOptions to the Router.
Now, it assigns the same options as RouterModule does (with the exception of enableTracing) via a
new shared function assignExtraOptionsToRouter.

This PR also changes the name of `EmptyOutletComponent` to `ɵEmptyOutletComponent`. This is because `ngcc` requires the node to retain the original name while dts bundler will rename the node is it's only exported using the aliases.
Example typings files:
```ts
declare class EmptyOutletComponent {
}
export {EmptyOutletComponent as ɵEmptyOutletComponent}
```
will be emitted as
```ts
export declare class ɵEmptyOutletComponent {
}
```
