Adds the ability to expose global symbols in the API docs via the `@globalApi` tag. Also supports optionally setting a namespace which will be added to the name automatically (e.g. `foo` will be renamed to `ng.foo`). Relevant APIs should also be exported through the `global.ts` file which will show up under `core/global`.

Injectable defs are not considered public API, so the property
that contains them should be prefixed with Angular's marker
for "private" ('ɵ') to discourage apps from relying on def
APIs directly.
This commit adds the prefix and shortens the name from
ngInjectableDef to "prov" (for "provider", since injector defs
are known as "inj"). This is because property names cannot
be minified by Uglify without turning on property mangling
(which most apps have turned off) and are thus size-sensitive.

`ng*Def` properties (such as `ngInjectorDef`) are not considered part of
the public API and should not appear in the API docs. This commit adds a
filter to remove these properties from the docs metadata.

Adds two new helper functions that can be used when unit testing Angular services
that depend upon upgraded AngularJS services, or vice versa.
The functions return a module (AngularJS or NgModule) that is configured to wire up
the Angular and AngularJS injectors without the need to actually bootstrap a full
hybrid application.
This makes it simpler and faster to unit test services.

There is an encoding issue with using delta `Δ`, where the browser will attempt to detect the file encoding if the character set is not explicitly declared on a `<script/>` tag, and Chrome will find the `Δ` character and decide it is window-1252 encoding, which misinterprets the `Δ` character to be some other character that is not a valid JS identifier character
So back to the frog eyes we go.

Now, one can add an `@alias` tag to API docs, which tells dgeni that this
API element (usually a `const`) is really just an alias for some API element
defined elsewhere.
Dgeni will then look up this API element and copy over the properties from
the alias to the current doc.
For example, we would like to privately export an Enum from `@angular/core`
but then publicly export this from `@angular/common`:
**packages/core/private_exports.ts**
```ts
/**
* Description of this document.
*/
export enum ɵSomeEnum { ... }
```
**packages/common/public_api.ts**
```ts
import {ɵSomeEnum} from '@angular/core';
/**
* @alias core/ɵSomeEnum
*/
export const SomeEnum = ɵSomeEnum;
```
In the generated docs there will be a page for `common/SomeEnum`, which
will be rendered as an enum, rather than a const, showing the description
extracted from the `core/ɵSomeEnum`.
---
The implementation of this feature required some refactoring of the other
processing:
1. Previously `ɵ` prefixed exports were not even considered.
2. Due to 1. some processors needed to have guards added to ignore such
private exports (`addMetadataAliases` and `checkContentRules`).
3. The processing of package pages had to be reworked (and split) so that
it picked up the aliased export docs after their alias proeprties had
been copied.

Currently our plan is to skip the publish, docgen, and update steps for this package.
During RC, we'll determine if the breaking change is too difficult for users, in which case we might restore the package for another major.

This commit includes the following changes:
* CLI version information is read from the CLI package from which
we read the help files.
* CLI API pages now contain GH links
* line numbers are not shown in GH links, if the doc does not
have a truthy `startingLine` value. This allows us to remove
hard coded checks for `guide` pages
* content pages and CLI api docs no longer have a `startingLine`
* the hard-coded `packages` path segment has been removed from
the templates; instead we now only use the `realProjectRelativePath`.
* the `realProjectRelativePath` has been updated accordingly for API
and CLI API docs.

The default dgeni config is to concatenate leading comments in front of API items.
In the case that you have an API item that starts a file with no import statements,
the license comment at the top of the file was being added to the front of the
API item's comment. SInce the license comment includes the `@license` tag
and the API item's comment did not start with `@description` the content of
the API item's comment was being put inside the `@license` tag, and no
description was being extracted from the API item's comment.
This commit updates to a version of dgeni-packages that has a switch to turn off
this concatenation, and then also configures this switch.

Classes that are injectable often have constructors that should not be
called by the application developer. It is the responsibility of the
injector to instantiate the class and the constructor often contains
private implementation details that may need to change.
This commit removes constructors from the docs for API items that are
both:
a) Marked with an injectable decorator (e.g. Injectable, Directive,
Component, Pipe), and
b) Have no constructor description
This second rule allows the developer to override the removal if there
is something useful to say about the constructor.
Note that "normal" classes such as `angimations/HttpHeaders` do not have
their constructor removed, despite (at this time) having no description.

Previously only the `description` and `usageNotes` were being copied over
from the call-member of the decorator interface. Important properties such
as `shortDescription` were missed.
These are now added and the code has been refactored to make it simpler and
clearer to update which properties get copied as the requirements change.

We now create npm packages to cover all the public api assertions in tools/public_api_guard.
We no longer depend on ts-api-guardian from npm - it is now stale since the repository was archived.
There is no longer a gulp task to enforce or accept the public API, this is in CircleCI as part of running all bazel test targets.

The new version of `dgeni-packages/typescript` no longer strips
out "namespaces" from types, which was part of the problem of
not autolinking correctly to `HttpEventType.Response`.
Another part of the problem was that we did not include `.`
characters when matching potential code blocks for auto-linking,
which precluded properties of enums from being linked.
Finally, members we not being given a `path` property, which is
needed to effectively autolink to them. This is now set in
the `simplifyMemberAnchors` processor.

This PR was merged without API docs and general rollout plan.
We can't release this as is in 5.1 without a plan for documentation, cli integration, etc.
This change will enable people to link to the API docs via their selectors
or names, as used in a template.
Since the selectors can be quite complex we are not able to get 100%
accuracy.
