Angular 22 support

[ilyakonrad]

Angular 22 has been out for a month now, but Stream Chat Angular still doesn't support it. Error when opening a channel:

ERROR Error: ASSERTION ERROR: token must be defined [Expected=> null != undefined <=Actual]

Verified by Claude:

Root cause — confirmed Angular 22 fallout. Angular 22 removed the long-deprecated ComponentFactoryResolver export from @angular/core, and two chat dependencies still inject it:

stream-chat-angular@7.1.4 — MessageInputComponent
angular-mentions@1.5.0 — MentionDirective (used inside the message input's autocomplete textarea)

Their compiled factories reference i0.ComponentFactoryResolver, which is now undefined, so opening a chat throws ASSERTION ERROR: token must be defined in ɵɵdirectiveInject while Angular is instantiating the message view. The @if (activeChannel$ | async) embedded view aborts mid-creation, leaving the right pane blank — exactly the "white screen when accessing chat history" in the ticket. I reproduced it in the browser against staging (channel list rendered, clicking any chat gave a white pane; in some runs the repeated error cycle even froze the tab), and confirmed the errors in the console.

Thanks for reporting this. We expect to have a new release supporting 22 at the end of next week, or a week later at the latest.
