Firebase used to do it automatically (with `cleanUrls: true`), but it
stopped doing it unless the resulting URL corresponds to an existing
file (which is not always the case in angular.io; e.g. the resulting URL
might be matched by a new redirect rule).
This change in Firebase hosting behavior resulted in some URLs not being
correctly redirected (e.g. URLs to the archived v2 site, or `.html`
suffixed URLs from 3rd-party sites).
This commit fixes it, by configuring Firebase hosting to strip off the
`.html` extension and redirect (if no other redirect rule matched).

AIO is currently using a beta version of @angular/service-worker.
Since that was implemented, the SW has been rewritten and released
as part of Angular 5.0.0. This commit updates AIO to use the latest
implementation, with an appropriate configuration file that caches
the various AIO assets in useful ways.

The outdated webpack guide has been removed in #24478, but people might
still try to access it (via direct links or search-engine results).
Instead of returning 404, we will now redirect `/guide/webpack` to the
archived version of the guide at `v5.angular.io/guide/webpack`.

Because:
1. `docs` feels like a "top level" page, similar to `features`, `resources`, `events` etc.
2. This enables the ServiceWorker to pre-fetch/cache the document (similar to what happens with all
other direct children of `content/docs/`), without the need for special-casing it in
`ngsw-manifest.json`.
There are external resources that link to the old URLs. In order to avoid
breaking them, the old URLs are redirected to the new ones.

Previously, all URLs were rewritten to `index.html` in order to support
deep-linking. This works when navigating to URLs that correspond to existing
resources. E.g. navigating to `/tutorial` returns `index.html` and then the
`DocViewer` takes over and requests `tutorial.json`.
Navigating to a non-existent URL (e.g. `/foo`), will return `index.html`, which
in turn requests (the non-existent) `foo.json` and throws an error when trying
to parse the returned `index.html` as JSON.
This commit fixes it by only rewriting URLs that do not request a file (i.e. do
not include a `.` in the last path segment).

This reverts commit d0bc83ca27.
Protractor-based prerendering is flakey on Travis and takes several minutes to
complete, slowing down the build. Prerendering has a lower impact now that we
use a ServiceWorker. We will revisit in the future (probably using a
`PlatformServer`-based approach).

All the docs related files (docs-app, doc-gen, content, etc)
are now to be found inside the `/aio` folder.
The related gulp tasks have been moved from the top level
gulp file to a new one inside the `/aio` folder.
The structure of the `/aio` folder now looks like:
```
/aio/
build/ # gulp tasks
content/ #MARKDOWN FILES for devguides, cheatsheet, etc
devguides/
cheatsheets/
transforms/ #dgeni packages, templates, etc
src/
app/
assets/
content/ #HTML + JSON build artifacts produced by dgeni from /aio/content.
#This dir is .gitignored-ed
e2e/ #protractor tests for the doc viewer app
node_modules/ #dependencies for both the doc viewer builds and the dgeni stuff
#This dir is .gitignored-ed
gulpfile.js #Tasks for generating docs and building & deploying the doc viewer
```
