Andrew Scott d9f550c97f refactor(router): Refactor loaded config to track injectors rather than NgModuleRef (#45593)
The `Injector` is really the piece of information that the `Router` is
interested in keeping track of. Storing the `NgModuleRef` is somewhat
confusing based on how it's used later on. `RouterOutlet` uses it for the
`componentFactoryResolver`, but this is not needed anymore (and deprecated). In
fact, we can get back to the `NgModuleRef` anyways using the injector.
For now, that's what this change does. A different refactor will remove
the use of the `componentFactoryResolver` altogether.

Additionally, in the standalone world, we plan to implement a feature to
allow defining `providers` directly on the `Route`. This means there
won't be an associated `NgModuleRef` so this refactor prepares for that
feature.

Angular Router

Managing state transitions is one of the hardest parts of building applications. This is especially true on the web, where you also need to ensure that the state is reflected in the URL. In addition, we often want to split applications into multiple bundles and load them on demand. Doing this transparently isn’t trivial.

The Angular router is designed to solve these problems. Using the router, you can declaratively specify application state, manage state transitions while taking care of the URL, and load components on demand.
