In this commit, we switch from decorators (which also produce redundant metadata, such as in the `declareFactory`
instruction) to the `inject` function to drop the `ROUTER_FORROOT_GUARD` token in production. This token factory function is only in development mode but is still referenced in the constructor due to the `@Inject(ROUTER_FORROOT_GUARD)` decorator.

Originally the `T` in `Resource<T>` represented the resolved type of the
resource, and `undefined` was explicitly added to this type in the `.value`
signal. This turned out to be problematic, as it wasn't possible to write a
type for a resource which didn't return `undefined` values. Such a type is
useful for 2 reasons:
1. to support narrowing of the resource type when `Resource.hasValue()`
returns `true`.
2. for resources which use a different value instead of `undefined` to
represent not having a value (for example, array resources which want to
use `[]` as their default).
Instead, this commit changes `resource()` and `rxResource()` to return an
explicit `ResourceRef<T|undefined>`, and removes the union with `undefined`
from all types related to the resource's value. This way, it's trivially
possible to write `Resource<T>` to represent resources where `.value` only
returns `T`.
`hasValue()` then actually works to perform narrowing, by narrowing the
resource type to `Exclude<T, undefined>`.

Prior to this commit, the `this.lcpObserver?.updateImage` expression was still preserved in the production code because it wasn't wrapped with `ngDevMode`. The observer is injected only in development mode. Additionally, we moved the logic from `ngOnDestroy` to avoid having an empty method in production.

This commit adds an operator to help rxjs observables important for rendering
keep the application unstable (and prevent serialization) until there is
an event (observable emits, completes, or errors, or the subscription is
unsubscribed). This helps with SSR for zoneless and also helps for when
operations are intentionally executed outside the Angular Zone but are
still important for SSR (i.e. angularfire and the zoneWrap helper hacks).

Angular DevTools is working on developing signal debugging support. This commit is a step in the direction of making available debug information to the framework that will allow Angular DevTools to provide users with more accurate information regarding the usage of signals in their applications.
Follow up PRs that will use this arg will:
- Develop a typescript transform that will detect usages of signal functions and attempt to add a debugName without the user needing to specify one directly
- Develop debug APIs for discovering signal graphs within Angular applications (using debugName as a way to label nodes on the graph)

Implementations of two rxjs-interop APIs which produce `Resource`s from
RxJS Observables. `rxResource()` is a flavor of `resource()` which uses a
projection to an `Observable` as its loader (like `switchMap`).
PR Close#58255
Implement a new experimental API, called `resource()`. Resources are
asynchronous dependencies that are managed and delivered through the signal
graph. Resources are defined by their reactive request function and their
asynchronous loader, which retrieves the value of the resource for a given
request value. For example, a "current user" resource may retrieve data for
the current user, where the request function derives the API call to make
from a signal of the current user id.
Resources are represented by the `Resource<T>` type, which includes signals
for the resource's current value as well as its state. `WritableResource<T>`
extends that type to allow for local mutations of the resource through its
`value` signal (which is therefore two-way bindable).

This change introduces the new reactive primitive: linkedSignal.
A linkedSignal represents state (hence the signal in the name)
that is reset based on the provided computation. Conceptually
it is a state that is maintained / valid only in the context of
another source signal (context is deteremined by a computation).

The keyvalue pipe sorts the entries of the input by key. This has been the subject of debate in the past (https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/42490). The core of the discussions is that it is often desirable (and perhaps expected) that they natural ordering of the input is respected. There are at least two workarounds to restore natural ordering, such as a `compareFn` that simply returns `1` or a custom pipe. However, both of these require code for pipe consumers to maintain or copy around to many places.
Allowing `null` as `compareFn` and treating it as "natural order" is fairly simple to understand, backward compatible and was suggested a few times on https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/42490 where it seemed to be received well. Using `null` is also possible in templates without any component code changes.

The shared style host now has the capability to add component styles as
link elements with external style references. This is currently unused
within the runtime but is an enabling feature for upcoming features such
as automatic component style HMR and development server deferred
stylesheet processing. Instead of inline style content that is then
added to a `style` element for each host node, a `link` element with a
stylesheet `rel` attribute and a `href` attribute can now be created.
The development server must be configured to provide the relevant
component stylesheet upon request. The Angular CLI development server
will provide this functionality once this capability is enabled.
Since the primary use of this capability is development mode and will
not be used for production code, server (SSR) style reuse is currently
not yet implemented but may be implemented in the future.
A component feature is used to provide the DOM renderer access to any
external styles that were emitted at compile time. When external styles
are present, the `getExternalStyles` function will be present on the
runtime component metadata object. The DOM render will use this function
to access and encapsulate the external style URLs as required by the
component.

Add the `strictStandalone` flag to `angularCompilerOptions`. When set to
true, the compiler will require that all declarations of components,
directive, and pipes be standalone. When `standalone: false` is provided,
an error is raised.
Note that until the default value of the standalone flag is flipped, this
does not catch the case where a declaration does not specify a value for
`standalone`.
The default value of the `strictStandalone` flag is `false`.

Adds a `manualCleanup` flag to `afterRender` and `afterNextRender`, similarly to `effect`. The reason is that currently if the hook is created outside of an injection context, it requires an injector to be passed in. In some cases that injector might be an injector that is never destroyed (e.g. `EnvironmentInjector`) which can give a false sense of security users thinking that the hook will be cleaned up automatically. We fell into this in the CDK which caused a memory leak (see https://github.com/angular/components/pull/29709). With the `manualCleanup` option users explicitly opt into cleaning the hook up themselves.

`@angular/upgrade` writes to inputs when downgrading an Angular 2+ component
into an Angular.JS adapter. Previously, it wrote directly to the input
property, which isn't compatible with input signals. It also handles
`ngOnChanges` directly.
The correct way to support input signals would be to refactor upgrade to use
`ComponentRef.setInput`, which also handles `ngOnChanges` internally.
However, this refactoring might be more breaking since it would change the
timing of certain operations. Instead, this commit updates the code to
recognize `InputSignal` and write it through the `InputSignalNode`. This
avoids the above breaking changes for now, until a bigger refactoring can be
tested.

The original effect design for Angular had one "bucket" of effects, which
are scheduled on the microtask queue. This approach got us pretty far, but
as developers have built more complex reactive systems, we've hit the
limitations of this design.
This commit changes the nature of effects significantly. In particular,
effects created in components have a completely new scheduling system, which
executes them as a part of the change detection cycle. This results in
behavior similar to that of nested effects in other reactive frameworks. The
scheduling behavior here uses the "mark for traversal" flag
(`HasChildViewsToRefresh`). This has really nice behavior:
* if the component is dirty already, effects run following preorder hooks
(ngOnInit, etc).
* if the component isn't dirty, it doesn't get change detected only because
of the dirty effect.
This is not a breaking change, since `effect()` is in developer preview (and
it remains so).
As a part of this redesigned `effect()` behavior, the `allowSignalWrites`
flag was removed. Effects no longer prohibit writing to signals at all. This
decision was taken in response to feedback / observations of usage patterns,
which showed the benefit of the restriction did not justify the DX cost.
The new effect timing is not yet enabled - a future PR will flip the flag.
