perf(input): prevent multiple validations on compilation

This commit updates in-built validators with observers to prevent
multiple calls to $validate that could happen after compilation in
certain circumstances:

- when an input is wrapped in a transclude: element directive (e.g. ngRepeat),
the order of execution between ngModel and the input / validation directives changes so that
the initial observer call happens when ngModel has already been initalized,
leading to another call to $validate, which calls *all* defined validators again.
Without ngRepeat, ngModel hasn't been initialized yet, and $validate does not call the validators.

When using validators with scope expressions, the expression value is not available when
ngModel first runs the validators (e.g. ngMinlength="myMinlength"). Only in the first call to
the observer does the value become available, making a call to $validate a necessity.

This commit solves the first problem by storing the validation attribute value so we can compare
the current value and the observed value - which will be the same after compilation.

The second problem is solved by parsing the validation expression once in the link function,
so the value is available when ngModel first validates.

Closes #14691
