Andrew Scott 8d5210c9fe feat(core): add ChangeDetectionStrategy.Eager alias for Default
Adds `ChangeDetectionStrategy.Eager` as an explicit alias for `ChangeDetectionStrategy.Default`. This improves readability when contrasting with `OnPush`, clarifying that the component will be checked eagerly when traversal reaches it.

Compiler findings:
- The compiler resolves `ChangeDetectionStrategy` enum members by value in `resolveEnumValue` (see `packages/compiler-cli/src/ngtsc/annotations/common/src/evaluation.ts`).
- Since `Eager` has usage value `1` (same as `Default`), it is correctly interpreted during static analysis.
- At runtime, `defineComponent` (in `packages/core/src/render3/definition.ts`) checks `changeDetection === ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush` (0). Any other value, including `1` (Eager/Default), results in eager checking behavior (`onPush: false`).
