This changes XhrBackend to not strip the XSSI prefix from error text
if such a prefix is present but the remaining body does not parse as
JSON.
PR Close#19958
Previously, XhrBackend would call JSON.parse('') if the response body was
empty (a 200 status code with content-length 0). This changes the XhrBackend
to attempt the JSON parse only if the response body is non-empty. Otherwise,
the body is left as null.

Previously, HttpClient used the overly clever test "body || null"
to determine when a body parameter was provided. This breaks when
the valid bodies '0' or 'false' are provided.
This change tests directly against 'undefined' to detect the presence
of the body parameter, and thus correctly allows falsy values through.

This is necessary to enable type-based optimizations with Closure.
Without explicity making these options the same named type, Closure
thinks they are different types and cannot disambiguate the `fromObject`
property.
With this commit `ngc` is used instead of `tsc-wrapped` for
collecting metadata and tsickle rewriting and `tsc-wrapped`
is removed from the repository.
`@angular/tsc-wrapped@5` is now deprecated and is no longer
used, updated, or maintained as part as of Angular 5.x.x.
`@angular/tsc-wrapped@4` is still maintained and required by
Angular 4.x.x and will be maintained as long as 4.x.x is in
LTS.

Currently HttpClient sends requests for JSON data with the
XMLHttpRequest.responseType set to 'json'. With this flag, the browser
will attempt to parse the response as JSON, but will return 'null' on
any errors. If the JSON response contains an XSSI-prevention prefix,
this will cause the browser's parsing to fail, which is unrecoverable.
The only compelling reason to use the responseType 'json' is for
performance (especially if the browser offloads JSON parsing to a
separate thread). I'm not aware of any browser which does this currently,
nor of any plans to do so. JSON.parse and responseType 'json' both
end up using the same V8 code path in Chrome to implement the parse.
Thus, this change switches all JSON parsing in HttpClient to use
JSON.parse directly.

Today, constructing a new GET request with headers looks like:
const headers = new HttpHeaders({
'My-Header': 'header value',
});
http.get('/url', {headers}).subscribe(...);
This indirection is unnecessary. It'd be more ergonomic to write:
http.get('/url', {headers: {'My-Header': 'header value'}}).subscribe(...);
This commit allows that new syntax, both for HttpHeaders and HttpParams.
In the HttpParams case it also allows construction of HttpParams with a map.

HttpClient is an evolution of the existing Angular HTTP API, which exists
alongside of it in a separate package, @angular/common/http. This structure
ensures that existing codebases can slowly migrate to the new API.
The new API improves significantly on the ergonomics and features of the legacy
API. A partial list of new features includes:
* Typed, synchronous response body access, including support for JSON body types
* JSON is an assumed default and no longer needs to be explicitly parsed
* Interceptors allow middleware logic to be inserted into the pipeline
* Immutable request/response objects
* Progress events for both request upload and response download
* Post-request verification & flush based testing framework
