This is a major refactor of how the router previously worked. There are a couple major advantages of this refactor, and future work will be built on top of it.
First, we will no longer have multiple navigations running at the same time. Previously, a new navigation wouldn't cause the old navigation to be cancelled and cleaned up. Instead, multiple navigations could be going at once, and we imperatively checked that we were operating on the most current `router.navigationId` as we progressed through the Observable streams. This had some major faults, the biggest of which was async races where an ongoing async action could result in a redirect once the async action completed, but there was no way to guarantee there weren't also other redirects that would be queued up by other async actions. After this refactor, there's a single Observable stream that will get cleaned up each time a new navigation is requested.
Additionally, the individual pieces of routing have been pulled out into their own operators. While this was needed in order to create one continuous stream, it also will allow future improvements to the testing APIs as things such as Guards or Resolvers should now be able to be tested in much more isolation.
* Add the new `router.transitions` observable of the new `NavigationTransition` type to contain the transition information
* Update `router.navigations` to pipe off of `router.transitions`
* Re-write navigation Observable flow to a single configured stream
* Refactor `switchMap` instead of the previous `mergeMap` to ensure new navigations cause a cancellation and cleanup of already running navigations
* Wire in existing error and cancellation logic so cancellation matches previous behavior

Previously, when you attempted to bootstrap a component that had a
router-outlet using ngsummaries, it would complain that the component
was not provided by any module even if it was. This commit fixes a
mistake (AFAICT) which caused the lookup of the component in the AOT
summaries to fail.
I believe this change is safe. I've run the affected tests within Google
and there were no breakages caused by this change.

CanLoad now defines UrlSegment[] as a second parameter of the function.
Users can store the initial url segments and refer to them later, e.g. to go
back to the original url after authentication via router.navigate(urlSegments).
Existing code still works as before because the second function parameter
does not have to be defined.

With these changes, the types are a little stricter now and also not
compatible with Protractor's jasmine-like syntax. So, we have to also
use `@types/jasminewd2` for e2e tests (but not for non-e2e tests).
I also had to "augment" `@types/jasminewd2`, because the latest
typings from [DefinitelyTyped][1] do not reflect the fact that the
`jasminewd2` version (v2.1.0) currently used by Protractor supports
passing a `done` callback to a spec.

The recognizer code used to call Object.freeze() on queryParams before
using them to construct ActivatedRoutes, with the intent being to help
avoid common invalid usage. Unfortunately, Object.freeze() works
in-place, so this was also freezing the queryParams on the actual
UrlTree object, making it more difficult to manipulate UrlTrees in
things like UrlHandlingStrategy.
This change simply shallow-copies the queryParams before freezing them.

This change brings Angular largely in line with how AngularJS previously serialized URLs. This is based on RFC 3986 and resolves issues such as the above #10280 where URLs could be parsed, re-serialized, then parsed again producing a different result on the second parsing.
Adjustments to be aware of in this commit:
* URI fragments will now serialize the same as query strings
* In the URI path or segments (portion prior to query string and/or fragment), the plus sign (`+`) and ampersand (`&`) will appear decoded
* In the URL path or segments, parentheses values (`(` and `)`) will now appear percent encoded as `%28` and `%29` respectively
* In the URL path or segments, semicolons will be encoded in their percent encoding `%3B`
NOTE: Parentheses and semicolons denoting auxillary routes or matrix params will still appear in their decoded form -- only parentheses and semicolons used as values in a segment or key/value pair for matrix params will be encoded.
While these changes are not considered breaking because applications should be decoding URLs and key/value pairs, it is possible that some unit tests will break if comparing hard-coded URLs in tests since that hard coded string will represent the old encoding. Therefore we are releasing this fix in the upcoming Angular v6 rather than adding it to a patch for v5.

Currently, NavigationStart there is no way to know if an navigation was triggered imperatively or via the location change. These two use cases should be handled differently for a variety of use cases (e.g., scroll position restoration). This PR adds a navigation source field and restored navigation id (passed to navigations triggered by a URL change).

Previously, the router would merge path and matrix params, as well as
data/resolve, with special rules (only merging down when the route has
an empty path, or is component-less). This change adds an extra option
"paramsInheritanceStrategy" which, when set to 'always', makes child
routes unconditionally inherit params from parent routes.
Closes#20572.
* The problem was with the `fireChildActivationStart` function. It was taking a `path` param, which was an
array of `ActivatedRouteSnapshot`s. The function was being fired for each piece of the route that was being
activated. This resulted in far too many `ChildActivationStart` events being fired, and being fired on routes
that weren't actually getting activated. This change fires the event only for those routes that are actually
being activated.

* refactor(core): provide error message in stack for reflective DI
Fixes#16355
* fix(compiler): make AOT work with `noUnusedParameters`
Fixes#15532
* refactor: use view engine also for `NgModuleFactory`s
This is a prerequisite for being able to mock providers
in AOTed code later on.
The Router use the type `Params` for all of:
- position parameters,
- matrix parameters,
- query parameters.
`Params` is defined as follow `type Params = {[key: string]: any}`
Because parameters can either have single or multiple values, the type should
actually be `type Params = {[key: string]: string | string[]}`.
The client code often assumes that parameters have single values, as in the
following exemple:
```
class MyComponent {
sessionId: Observable<string>;
constructor(private route: ActivatedRoute) {}
ngOnInit() {
this.sessionId = this.route
.queryParams
.map(params => params['session_id'] || 'None');
}
}
```
The problem here is that `params['session_id']` could be `string` or `string[]`
but the error is not caught at build time because of the `any` type.
Fixing the type as describe above would break the build because `sessionId`
would becomes an `Observable<string | string[]>`.
However the client code knows if it expects a single or multiple values. By
using the new `ParamMap` interface the user code can decide when it needs a
single value (calling `ParamMap.get(): string`) or multiple values (calling
`ParamMap.getAll(): string[]`).
The above exemple should be rewritten as:
```
class MyComponent {
sessionId: Observable<string>;
constructor(private route: ActivatedRoute) {}
ngOnInit() {
this.sessionId = this.route
.queryParamMap
.map(paramMap => paramMap.get('session_id') || 'None');
}
}
```
Added APIs:
- `interface ParamMap`,
- `ActivatedRoute.paramMap: ParamMap`,
- `ActivatedRoute.queryParamMap: ParamMap`,
- `ActivatedRouteSnapshot.paramMap: ParamMap`,
- `ActivatedRouteSnapshot.queryParamMap: ParamMap`,
- `UrlSegment.parameterMap: ParamMap`

Before this change there was a single injector tree.
Now we have 2 injector trees, one for the modules and one for the components.
This fixes lazy loading modules.

BREAKING CHANGES
`ComponentFactory.create()` takes an extra optional `NgModuleRef` parameter.
No change should be required in user code as the correct module will be used
when none is provided
DEPRECATIONS
The following methods were used internally and are no more required:
- `RouterOutlet.locationFactoryResolver`
- `RouterOutlet.locationInjector`
