/**
 * This interface represents the lexical scope of a partial declaration in the source code.
 *
 * For example, if you had the following code:
 *
 * ```
 * function foo() {
 *   function bar () {
 *     ɵɵngDeclareDirective({...});
 *   }
 * }
 * ```
 *
 * The `DeclarationScope` of the `ɵɵngDeclareDirective()` call is the body of the `bar()` function.
 *
 * The `FileLinker` uses this object to identify the lexical scope of any constant statements that
 * might be generated by the linking process (i.e. where the `ConstantPool` lives for a set of
 * partial linkers).

     * Get a `TSharedConstantScope` object that can be used to reference the lexical scope where any
     * shared constant statements would be inserted.
     *
     * This object is generic because different AST implementations will need different
     * `TConstantScope` types to be able to insert shared constant statements. For example in Babel
     * this would be a `NodePath` object; in TS it would just be a `Node` object.
     *
     * If it is not possible to find such a shared scope, then constant statements will be wrapped up
     * with their generated linked definition expression, in the form of an IIFE.
     *
     * @param expression the expression that points to the Angular core framework import.
     * @returns a reference to a reference object for where the shared constant statements will be
     *     inserted, or `null` if it is not possible to have a shared scope.
