Which @angular/* package(s) are the source of the bug?

compiler, core

Is this a regression?

No

Description

When working on a library I found the need to export a set of directives to cooperate together. Based on the documentation array of cooperating directives this should be possible when using the following approach.

export const dirs = [MakeItBlueDirective, MakeItRedDirective] as const;

The result of this is that the compiler (I think) will throw an error:

Type 'readonly [typeof MakeItBlueDirective, typeof MakeItRedDirective]' is not assignable to type 'any[] | Type<any>'.
  The type 'readonly [typeof MakeItBlueDirective, typeof MakeItRedDirective]' is 'readonly' and cannot be assigned to the mutable type 'any[]'.ts(2322)

Using a NgModule or directly import both directives everything works as expected. A workaround that I found together with @SanderElias is that removing as const is working. But we believe that this is not should be done.

A minimal repo can be found here: minimal repo
The line that needs to be changed to use the array of directives is here
A minimal repo with v15-next.4 can be found here minimal repo next branch

side note: we checked with @pkozlowski-opensource and he recommended making this issue
