Support for Standalone Directives

Basically, we have just a limitation that we could not use host directives if the directive is not standalone:

see for example :

https://angular.io/guide/directive-composition-api#adding-directives-to-a-component

and about cdk (they are not ready as well):

https://github.com/angular/components/issues/26036#issuecomment-1588683306

Thanks

Hello Diego,

We are declining this request due to low interest and demand.

However, if there is a surge in popularity at a later time, we will reconsider its status.
