fix(cdk/drag-drop): optionally inject parent drag in preview and plac…

…eholder (#28750)

Fixes a regression from #28633 where using `cdkDragPlaceholder` or `cdkDragPreview` without a `cdkDrag` would throw. Technically this is a no-op, but it appears that folks started depending on the old behavior so these changes bring it back.

Fixes #28744.
