Updates the form documentation to link to the API reference for the `form()` function.
Also removes unused `HttpClient` import from the async validation example.

Update how dev preview, experimental and deprecated labels are visualized in the API list to avoid ambiguity with the current design on larger screens.
This commit prevents the Router from intercepting reload navigations
in the navigate event listener. This would convert hard page reloads
to SPA navigations.

Update the Genkit Angular integration documentation link from the old path
/docs/angular/ to the current correct path /docs/frameworks/angular/
This ensures developers are directed to the correct and up-to-date
documentation for integrating Genkit with Angular applications.
Adds dedicated `LocationStrategy` subclasses: `NoTrailingSlashPathLocationStrategy` and `TrailingSlashPathLocationStrategy`.
The `TrailingSlashPathLocationStrategy` ensures that URLs prepared for the browser always end with a slash, while `NoTrailingSlashPathLocationStrategy` ensures they never do. This configuration only affects the URL written to the browser history; the `Location` service continues to normalize paths by stripping trailing slashes when reading from the browser.
Example:
```typescript
providers: [
{provide: LocationStrategy, useClass: TrailingSlashPathLocationStrategy}
]
```
This approach to the trailing slash problem isolates the changes to the
existing LocationStrategy abstraction without changes to Router, as was
attempted in two other options (#66452 and #66423).
From an architectural perspective, this is the cleanest approach for several reasons:
1. Separation of Concerns and "Router Purity": The Router's primary job is to map a URL structure to an application state (ActivatedRoutes). It shouldn't necessarily be burdened with the formatting nuances of the underlying platform unless those nuances affect the state itself. By pushing trailing slash handling to the LocationStrategy, you treat the trailing slash as a "platform serialization format" rather than a "router state" concern. This avoids the "weirdness" in #66423 where the UrlTree (serialization format) disagrees with the ActivatedRouteSnapshot (logical state).
2. Tree Shakability: If an application doesn't care about trailing slashes (which is the default "never" behavior), they don't pay the cost for that logic. It essentially becomes a swappable "driver" for the URL interaction.
3. Simplicity for the Router: #66452 (consuming the slash as a segment) bleeds into the matching logic, potentially causing issues with child routes or wildcards effectively "eating" a segment that should be invisible. This option leaves the matching logic purely focused on meaningful path segments by continuing to strip the trailing slash on read.
4. Consistency with Existing Patterns: Angular already uses LocationStrategy to handle Hash vs Path routing. Adding "Trailing Slash" nuances there is a natural extension of that pattern—it's just another variation of "how do we represent this logic in the browser's address bar?"

This implements `onDidChangedWatchedFiles` in the language server, which
allows the client to communicate changes to files rather than having the
server create system file/directory watchers.
This option is enabled in the extension via the
`angular.server.useClientSideFileWatcher` setting.
When enabled, the extension registers a FileSystemWatcher for .ts, .html, and package.json files and forwards events to the server. The server completely disables its internal native file watchers (via a new 'ServerHost' implementation that stubs watchFile/watchDirectory).
This is significantly more performant and reliable than native watching for several reasons:
- Deduplication: VS Code already watches the workspace. Piggybacking on these events prevents the server from duplicating thousands of file watchers.
- OS Limits: Since the server opens zero watcher handles, it is impossible to hit OS limits (ENOSPC), no matter how large the repo is.
- Optimization: VS Code's watcher uses highly optimized native implementations (like Parcel Watcher in Rust/C++) which handle recursive directory watching far better than Node.js's 'fs.watch'.
- Debouncing: The client aggregates extremely frequent file events (e.g., during 'git checkout'), reducing the flood of processing requests to the server.
This option was tested in one very large internal project and observed
~10-50x improvement of initialization times.

Parse errors allow a custom control to communicate that it is currently
unable to produce a valid value.
Parse errors are reported by implementing the optional `parseErrors`
property on the `FormUiControl`. The property should be a signal of the
current parse errors.
Also renames several `*Field` types to `*FieldTree`. This aligns with the new naming of the concept after `Field` was renamed
to `FieldTree`.
Previously, ng_package applied version stamping to all source files, which corrupted binary files like SQLite databases.
This change ignores text substitution for files passed to the `data` attribute, ensuring binary assets are preserved intact in the final package.

When synthesizing an import corresponding with a .tsx file, the extension
would not be removed unlike regular .ts files. Adjust the import generators
to also drop any .tsx extension from module specifiers.
