fix(cdk/table): the CdkNoDataRow directive does not render in the OnPush strategy (#27687)

Fixes a bug in the Angular CDK `table` component where the CdkNoDataRow directive with binding data
is not rendered correctly when the parent component has the OnPush strategy set

(cherry picked from commit ca9c490)
