This PR tackles a simple case where ViewRef definition point (<ng-template>) is the
same as the insertion point (ViewContainerRef requested on the said <ng-template>).
For this particular case we can assume that we know a container into which a given
view will be inserted when a view is created. This is not true fall all the possible
cases so follow-up PR will be needed to extend this basic implementation.

The bug fixed here steams from the fact that we are traversing too far up
in the views tree hierarchy in the destroyViewTree function.
The logic in destroyViewTree is off if we start removal at an embedded view
without any child views. For such a case we should just clean up (cleanUpView)
this one view without paying attention to next / parent views.

As we no longer create native (RNode) comment nodes for containers,
we need to execute logic for finding a next sibiling node with RNode
when inserting a view.
The mentioned logic need to be updated for the case of dynamically
created containers (LContainerNode). Indeed, we need to be able to
descend into dynamically inserted views while looking for a RNode.
To achieve this we need to have a pointer from a host LNode to a
dynamically created LContainerNode).

This commit fixes a bug that would result in views insert / remove
even if a view needed only refresh operation.
The crux of the bug was that we were looking for a view to update
only in the LContainer.nextIndex position. This is incorrect as a
view with a given block id could be present later in the views
array (this happens if we about to remove a view in the middle of
the views array).
The code in this fix searches for a view to update in the views array and
can remove views in the middle of the views collection. Previously we
would remove views at the end of the collection only.
