Paul Gschwendtner 71360b3a3e fix(compiler-cli): libraries compiled with v16.1+ breaking with Angular framework v16.0.x (#50715)
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.
