In order for tsickle's new support for input source maps to work, the tsickleCompilerHost must be used for the initial load of source files, since that's when the inline source maps are read and stripped.
TypeScript compiler will now build to ES2015 code and modules. Babili is used to minify ES2015
code, providing an initial optimization that we couldn't previously get just from Uglify. Uses
Babel to convert ES2015 to UMD/ES5 code, and Uglify to minimize the output.
Tsickle transforms typescript code, which can change the location of code.
This can cause issues such as runtime stack traces reporting that errors
were raised on the incorrect line in the orginal source. This change replaces
the DecoratorDownlevelCompilerHost and the TsickleCompilerHost with tsickle's
TsickleCompilerHost, which automatically composes tsickle's source maps with
typescript's source maps, so that line numbers are correctly reported at
runtime.

ngc can now validate metadata before emitting to verify it doesn't
contain an error symbol that will result in a runtime error if
it is used by the StaticReflector.
To enable this add the section,
"angularCompilerOptions": {
"strictMetadataEmit": true
}
to the top level of the tsconfig.json file passed to ngc.
Enabled metadata validation for packages that are intended to be
used statically.
This ensures we run in a clean directory, using our real distribution. It finds bugs like @internal
APIs needed to type-check in the offline compiler, as well as problems in package.json.
