The context of an embedded view ref at some point was switched from a
getter to an actual assignable property. This is something we reverted
with the previous commit as it introduces additional complexity for our
generated code (in terms of closures capturing the `ctx`).
This change impacted the template outlet code because we actively relied
on swapping out the full context if the user changes it. Previousl,
before we allowed to swap out the context (in v16), we mutated the
initial view context if it didn't change structurally- and in other
cases the view was re-created. We improved this performance aspect with
the changes to allow for the context to be swapped out + actually also
fixed a bug where the initial context object was mutated and the user
could observe this change.
This commit adjusts for context not being replacable- while still
keeping the bugs fixed and preserving the performance wins of not
having to destroy/re-create the view whenever the context changes.

The router currently restricts all further redirects after an absolute
redirect. Because there's no documented reason for _why_ this
restriction is in place, I'm now deeming this unnecessary. Developers
should not be restricted in this manner. Instead, configs that may
have caused infinite redirects in the past should be updated to not be
infinite. It is confusing to ignore configs with redirects after an
absolute redirect occurred because it creates different matching rules
depending on the whether an absolute redirect has happened or not.
For additional context on why I believe removing this restriction is
necessary, #13373 asks for allowing `redirectTo` to be a function. It
would make sense to allow this function to return a `UrlTree` like other
guards in the Router. When guards in the `Router` return `UrlTree`, they
cancel the current navigation and start a new one to re-do the route
matching. Since we're already in the router matching part, we don't need
to cancel the navigation. However, the restriction on absolute redirects
here then creates a weird situation where developers wouldn't see any
other redirects if they returned a `UrlTree` as an absolute redirect
from `redirectTo`.

BREAKING CHANGE: Absolute redirects no longer prevent further redirects.
Route configurations may need to be adjusted to prevent infinite
redirects where additional redirects were previously ignored after an
absolute redirect occurred.

The `malformedUriErrorHandler` is used as a recovery mechanism for when the `UrlSerializer`
throws an error when parsing a URL string. If custom error handling is
desired for this, it should instead be done inside the
`UrlSerializer.parse` method itself. There's no reason to have an entire
feature option built around what can otherwise just be `try...catch`.

Certain code patterns and tools in Google (and possibly 3P world) lead to the situation that a component is bootstrapped/rendered without its ng-module being loaded in the browser. Technically speaking this should be an anti-pattern since the ng-module could contain some runtime logic (e.g., providing something, calling some services, etc) and its not being loaded leads to unexpected behaviour. However, in many cases ng-module is an empty class and its only usage is for providing scope, and since in AoT full compilation mode we already hard-code dependencies into components so we can get away with not loading the ng-module. But in AoT local compilation mode it is not possible to get away since the component's dependencies are computed in runtime and the presence of the corresponding ng-module in the browser is needed. For this reason in this change it is forbidden to attempt to render a component without first loading its ng-module in local compilation mode and an explicit error message is created to make this situation clear. This error message can help with catching such cases when running TGP in Google.
It would be an interesting question as to whether to ban this situation in full compilation mode as well, as it is error prone and these errors are sometimes very hard to debug.

Previously effects were queued as they became dirty, and this queue was
flushed at various checkpoints during the change detection cycle. The result
was that change detection _was_ the effect runner, and without executing CD,
effects would not execute. This leads a particular tradeoff:
* effects are subject to unidirectional data flow (bad for dx)
* effects don't cause a new round of CD (good/bad depending on use case)
* effects can be used to implement control flow efficiently (desirable)
This commit changes the scheduling mechanism. Effects are now scheduled via
the microtask queue. This changes the tradeoffs:
* effects are no longer limited by unidirectional data flow (easy dx)
* effects registered in the Angular zone will trigger CD after they run
(same as `Promise.resolve` really)
* the public `effect()` type of effect probably isn't a good building block
for our built-in control flow, and we'll need a new internal abstraction.
As `effect()` is in developer preview, changing the execution timing is not
considered breaking even though it may impact current users.

The View Transitions API enables easy animations when transitioning between different DOM states.

This commit refactors the router internals to track state inside a separate
`StateManager`. This helps open the door to managing the state in
different, swappable providers. The current interface needed by the
Router is: `currentUrlTree`, `rawUrlTree`, `browserUrlTree`,
`routerState`, and `handleNavigationEvent` (other properties are because
some router properties are writeable when they shouldn't be). This is
a suprisingly small interface and can hopefully be made smaller in the
future (i.e. removing 1 or more of the 3 tracked of `UrlTree`s).

This commit switches the signals library from a bidirectional symmetric
dependency graph using weak references, to a bidirectional _asymmetric_
graph which uses strong references. This is made possible with a reference
counting algorithm which only tracks producer -> consumer references for
effect-like "live" consumers, preventing memory leaks.
The new algorithm should be simpler and faster than the previous
implementation as weak references are fairly slow to create and traverse.
A tradeoff is that non-live consumers must now poll their producers when
read, as they cannot rely on dirty notifications.
As part of this refactoring, the `ReactiveNode` class is replaced with an
interface instead, and methods are moved to standalone functions. This is
paired with instantiating individual signals/computeds via `Object.create`
against a prototype node which contains static or initial values. This
technique, in conjunction with the rest, greatly improves the performance
of node creation.

In local compilation mode it is not possible to use an imported string for component's template or styles as it cannot be resolved statically in compile time. There are some such use cases in g3 and potentially devs might incorporate such pattern. At the moment such pattern will cause the local compilation fail with generic error messages (e.g., so and so at position 1 is not a reference, etc). This change makes specific error messages with helpful hints for such cases. These new error messages can help devs to quickly resolve the issue as well as make it possible to identify existing issues in g3.

If a library is compiling with Angular v16.1.0, the library will break
for users that are still on Angular v16.0.x. This happens because the
`DirectiveDeclaration` or `ComponentDeclaration` types are not expecting
an extra field for `signals` metadata. This field was only added to the
generic types in `16.1.0`- so compilations fail with errors like this:
```
Error: node_modules/@angular/material/icon/index.d.ts:204:18 -
error TS2707: Generic type 'ɵɵComponentDeclaration' requires between 7 and 9 type arguments.
```
To fix this, we quickly roll back the code for inserting this metadata
field. That way, libraries remain compatible with all v16.x framework
versions.
We continue to include the `signals` metadata if `signals: true` is set.
This is not public API anyway right now- so cannot happen- but imagine
we expose some signal APIs in e.g. 16.2.x, then we'd need this metadata
and can reasonably expect signal-component library users to use a more
recent framework core version.
