[AnimationPlayer]: throws error when playing an animation and chaning route

[RivaIvanova]

Description

Originated from AppBuilder e2e-story1.cy.ts. Introduced by #15397 and affects carousel, tabs, and stepper components.

For IgxCarousel and IgxStepper components, when having a handler that calls the components' next()/prev() methods and changes the route, an error is thrown.

<button igxButton="contained" (click)="clickCarouselButton()">Button</button>
<igx-carousel [navigation]="true" [loop]="false" #carousel>
  <igx-slide>
    <img src="/assets/WonderfulCoast.png" />
  </igx-slide>
  <igx-slide>
    <img src="/assets/GoldenBeaches.png" />
  </igx-slide>
</igx-carousel>

@ViewChild('carousel', { static: true, read: IgxCarouselComponent })
private carousel?: IgxCarouselComponent;

constructor(private router: Router) {}

public clickCarouselButton() {
  this.carousel?.next();
  this.router.navigate(['test']);
}

ERROR RuntimeError: NG03301: Unable to find the timeline player referenced by 0

It seems that in carousel-base.ts (base class for carousel, stepper, tabs), the animationEnd event is called after ngOnDestroy (where both players are destroyed, but not set to null).

This results in an attempt to destroy the enterAnimationPlayer and leaveAnimationPlayer a second time.
