Form controls have internal API that allows subscribing to changes in a data collection (for FormGroups and FormArrays), when a new control is added to a collection or existing one is removed. This internal API is used inside FormGroupDirective to trigger DOM updates. The problem with the current API is that there is no way to append a callback or remove a particular one (for ex. a callback that belongs to a directive that is being removed). Instead, new `onCollectionChange` callback always resets existing one. This commit updates the logic of `onCollectionChange` callback handling to provide an ability to add and remove particular callbacks without loosing previous callbacks. It resolves some of the problems in case a FormGroup instance is shared between different instances of Forms directives as well as allowing for better cleanup mechanisms to be implemented in followup PRs.

Quick update: it turned out that this change is quite break-y and we would not be able to land it in minor or patch versions (only in major). I'll need to do more investigation to figure out how that would affect #39235. |
