This commit makes the breaking changes section of the v11.0.0 release
info in `CHANGELOG.md` easier to follow by:
1. Adding links to the corresponding commit for each breaking change (to
make it easier to find the full context of the change).
2. Turning breaking changes of each scope into a bulleted list (to make
it clearer that they affect the same package/scope).
NOTE:
It would be better if the changelog generation tooling handled this
automatically. This potential improvement is being tracked in #39698.

Usually, entries in the release notes for a version in `CHANGELOG.md` are
grouped by scope (i.e. all `compiler` changes together, all `router`
changes together, etc.). Currently, the notes for a non-patch release
are created manually, by contatenating the release notes for all
corresponding next/RC versions. As a result, the entries for v11.0.0 are
not grouped together.
This commit fixes it by grouping all entries for the v11.0.0 release by
scope, making it easier to identify all changes that affect a specific
package/scope.

It seems that the script used to generate the `CHANGELOG.md` content
incorrectly treats any link or issue/PR reference in the commit message
as a link to an issue fixed/closed by the commit. However, there are
cases where such links/references do not refer to issues fixed/closed by
the commit (or not refer to issues at all).
This commit fixes such bogus links in the v11.0.0 release info.
NOTE:
The underlying issue should be more generically addressed in the
changelog generation tooling. This is being tracked in #39698.

Currently, the script that is used to generate the `CHANGELOG.md`
content uses the first 7 characters of a commit SHA in the generated
links. This is problematic when there are multiple commits in the repo
(or forks of the repo?) that start with the same 7 characters (which is
rare but possible), since GitHub shows a 404 page.
This was the case with commit 736e0644b0
that is included in the v11.0.0 release notes and happens to start with
the same characters as commit 736e064ac80f5e0ed84711694c2ba68809222ffd.
This commit fixes the issue by using the full commit SHA in the link for
this particular commit.

Commit 4ca1c736bb (part of PR #38931) was
incorrectly marked with scope `packaging`, while it is an internal-only
change (i.e. it does not affect packaging). As such is should have been
marked with a different scope (for example, `ci`/`build`/`refactoring`)
and should not appear in `CHANGELOG.md`.
This commit removes the entry from `CHANGELOG.md` to avoid confusing
developers trying to understand how this change may affect their apps.
NOTE:
The commit contains a breaking change notice (about dropping support for
IE<11) which _is_ relevant to app developers. This breaking change
notice is preserved in the "BREAKING CHANGES" section, but the scope is
changes from `packaging` to `core` to avoid confusion.

Before this change, when trying to load a JSONP script that calls the JSONP callback inside a

to be queued after the loaded endpoint executed any potential microtask itself. This ensures that
the aforementioned browsers will first evaluate the loaded script calling the JSONP callback and

The result of utf-8 encoding a string was represented in a string, where
each individual character represented a single byte according to its
character code. All usages of this data were interested in the byte
itself, so this required conversion from a character back to its code.
This commit simply stores the individual bytes in array to avoid the
conversion. This yields a ~10% performance improvement for i18n message
ID computation.
PR Close#39694
Message ID computation makes extensive use of big integer
multiplications in order to translate the message's fingerprint into
a numerical representation. In large compilations with heavy use of i18n
this was showing up high in profiler sessions.
There are two factors contributing to the bottleneck:
1. a suboptimal big integer representation using strings, which requires
repeated allocation and conversion from a character to numeric digits
and back.
2. repeated computation of the necessary base-256 exponents and their
multiplication factors.
The first bottleneck is addressed using a representation that uses an
array of individual digits. This avoids repeated conversion and
allocation overhead is also greatly reduced, as adding two big integers
can now be done in-place with virtually no memory allocations.
The second point is addressed by a memoized exponentiation pool to
optimize the multiplication of a base-256 exponent.
As an additional optimization are the two 32-bit words now converted to
decimal per word, instead of going through an intermediate byte buffer
and doing the decimal conversion per byte.
The results of these optimizations depend a lot on the number of i18n
messages for which a message should be computed. Benchmarks have shown
that computing message IDs is now ~6x faster for 1,000 messages, ~14x
faster for 10,000 messages, and ~24x faster for 100,000 messages.

Currently when we encounter an implicit method call (e.g. `{{ foo(1) }}`) and we manage to resolve
its receiver to something within the template, we assume that the method is on the receiver itself
so we generate a type checking code to reflect it. This assumption is true in most cases, but it
breaks down if the call is on an implicit receiver and the receiver itself is being invoked. E.g.
```
<div *ngFor="let fn of functions">{{ fn(1) }}</div>
```
These changes resolve the issue by generating a regular function call if the method call's receiver
is pointing to `$implicit`.

`setComponentScope` was previously undocumented. This commit adds a short
explanation of what the function does, and adds a link to a doc which

PR Close#39662
ngtsc will avoid emitting generated imports that would create an import
cycle in the user's program. The main way such imports can arise is when
a component would ordinarily reference its dependencies in its component
definition `directiveDefs` and `pipeDefs`. This requires adding imports,
which run the risk of creating a cycle.
When ngtsc detects that adding such an import would cause this to occur, it
instead falls back on a strategy called "remote scoping", where a side-
effectful call to `setComponentScope` in the component's NgModule file is
used to patch `directiveDefs` and `pipeDefs` onto the component. Since the
NgModule file already imports all of the component's dependencies (to
declare them in the NgModule), this approach does not risk adding a cycle.
It has several large downsides, however:
1. it breaks under `sideEffects: false` logic in bundlers including the CLI
2. it breaks tree-shaking for the given component and its dependencies
See this doc for further details: https://hackmd.io/Odw80D0pR6yfsOjg_7XCJg?view
In particular, the impact on tree-shaking was exacerbated by the naive logic
ngtsc used to employ here. When this feature was implemented, at the time of
generating the side-effectful `setComponentScope` call, the compiler did not
know which of the component's declared dependencies were actually used in
its template. This meant that unlike the generation of `directiveDefs` in
the component definition itself, `setComponentScope` calls had to list the
_entire_ compilation scope of the component's NgModule, including directives
and pipes which were not actually used in the template. This made the tree-
shaking impact much worse, since if the component's NgModule made use of any
shared NgModules (e.g. `CommonModule`), every declaration therein would
become un-treeshakable.
Today, ngtsc does have the information on which directives/pipes are
actually used in the template, but this was not being used during the remote
scoping operation. This commit modifies remote scoping to take advantage of
the extra context and only list used dependencies in `setComponentScope`
calls, which should ameliorate the tree-shaking impact somewhat.

The resource loader uses TypeScript's module resolution system to
determine at which locations it needs to look for a resource file. A
marker string is used to force the module resolution to fail, such that
all failed lookup locations can then be considered for actual resource
resolution. Any filesystem requests targeting files/directories that
contain the marker are known not to exist, so no filesystem request
needs to be done at all.

When a `ViewContainerRef` is injected, we dynamically create a comment node next to the host
so that it can be used as an anchor point for inserting views. The comment node is inserted
through the `appendChild` helper from `node_manipulation.ts` in most cases.
The problem with using `appendChild` here is that it has some extra logic which doesn't return
a parent `RNode` if an element is at the root of a component. I __think__ that this is a performance
optimization which is used to avoid inserting an element in one place in the DOM and then
moving it a bit later when it is projected. This can break down in some cases when creating
a `ViewContainerRef` for a non-component node at the root of another component like the following:
```
<root>
<div #viewContainerRef></div>
</root>
```
In this case the `#viewContainerRef` node is at the root of a component so we intentionally don't
insert it, but since its anchor element was created manually, it'll never be projected. This will
prevent any views added through the `ViewContainerRef` from being inserted into the DOM.
These changes resolve the issue by not going through `appendChild` at all when creating a comment
node for `ViewContainerRef`. This should work identically since `appendChild` doesn't really do
anything with the T structures anyway, it only uses them to reach the relevant DOM nodes.

Currently when an instance of the `FormControlName` directive is destroyed, the Forms package invokes
the `cleanUpControl` to clear all directive-specific logic (such as validators, onChange handlers,
etc) from a bound control. The logic of the `cleanUpControl` function should revert all setup
performed by the `setUpControl` function. However the `cleanUpControl` is too aggressive and removes
all callbacks related to the onChange and disabled state handling. This is causing problems when
a form control is bound to multiple FormControlName` directives, causing other instances of that
directive to stop working correctly when the first one is destroyed.
This commit updates the cleanup logic to only remove callbacks added while setting up a control
for a given directive instance.
The fix is needed to allow adding `cleanUpControl` function to other places where cleanup is needed
(missing this function calls in some other places causes memory leak issues).
