fix(core): avoid leaking view data in animations

The animations code currently tracks which views have running leave animations by adding them to a `Set`. This can leak memory if we don't clean something up on time.

These changes switch to tracking the views by their ID which doesn't risk retaining the view.

Fixes angular#66255.
