The new view engine allows our codegen to produce less code,
as it can interpret view definitions during runtime.
The view engine is not feature complete yet, but already
allows to implement a tree benchmark based on it.
Part of #14013
- Introduce `InjectionToken<T>` which is a parameterized and type-safe
version of `OpaqueToken`.
DEPRECATION:
- `OpaqueToken` is now deprecated, use `InjectionToken<T>` instead.
- `Injector.get(token: any, notFoundValue?: any): any` is now deprecated
use the same method which is now overloaded as
`Injector.get<T>(token: Type<T>|InjectionToken<T>, notFoundValue?: T): T;`.
Migration
- Replace `OpaqueToken` with `InjectionToken<?>` and parameterize it.
- Migrate your code to only use `Type<?>` or `InjectionToken<?>` as
injection tokens. Using other tokens will not be supported in the
future.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Because `injector.get()` is now parameterize it is possible that code
which used to work no longer type checks. Example would be if one
injects `Foo` but configures it as `{provide: Foo, useClass: MockFoo}`.
The injection instance will be that of `MockFoo` but the type will be
`Foo` instead of `any` as in the past. This means that it was possible
to call a method on `MockFoo` in the past which now will fail type
check. See this example:
```
class Foo {}
class MockFoo extends Foo {
setupMock();
}
var PROVIDERS = [
{provide: Foo, useClass: MockFoo}
];
...
function myTest(injector: Injector) {
var foo = injector.get(Foo);
// This line used to work since `foo` used to be `any` before this
// change, it will now be `Foo`, and `Foo` does not have `setUpMock()`.
// The fix is to downcast: `injector.get(Foo) as MockFoo`.
foo.setUpMock();
}
```

- remove outer `<div>` in tests,
- use `<ng-container>` instead of `<template>` where possible,
- use *... instead of template (tag or attr) where possible.
Fixes#13816
CHANGES:
- Remove unused `onDestroy` method on the `KeyValueDiffer` and
`IterableDiffer`.
DEPRECATION:
- `CollectionChangeRecord` is renamed to `IterableChangeRecord`.
`CollectionChangeRecord` is aliased to `IterableChangeRecord` and is
marked as `@deprecated`. It will be removed in `v5.x.x`.
- Deprecate `DefaultIterableDiffer` as it is private class which
was erroneously exposed.
- Deprecate `KeyValueDiffers#factories` as it is private field which
was erroneously exposed.
- Deprecate `IterableDiffers#factories` as it is private field which
was erroneously exposed.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `IterableChangeRecord` is now an interface and parameterized on `<V>`.
This should not be an issue unless your code does
`new IterableChangeRecord` which it should not have a reason to do.
- `KeyValueChangeRecord` is now an interface and parameterized on `<V>`.
This should not be an issue unless your code does
`new IterableChangeRecord` which it should not have a reason to do.

Detailed changes:
- remove `UNINITIALIZED`, initialize change detection fields with `undefined`.
* we use `view.numberOfChecks === 0` now everywhere
as indicator whether we are in the first change detection cycle
(previously we used this only in a couple of places).
* we keep the initialization itself as change detection get slower without it.
- remove passing around `throwOnChange` in various generated calls,
and store it on the view as property instead.
- change generated code for bindings to DOM elements as follows:
Before:
```
var currVal_10 = self.context.bgColor;
if (jit_checkBinding15(self.throwOnChange,self._expr_10,currVal_10)) {
self.renderer.setElementStyle(self._el_0,'backgroundColor',((self.viewUtils.sanitizer.sanitize(jit_21,currVal_10) == null)? null: self.viewUtils.sanitizer.sanitize(jit_21,currVal_10).toString()));
self._expr_10 = currVal_10;
}
var currVal_11 = jit_inlineInterpolate16(1,' ',self.context.data.value,' ');
if (jit_checkBinding15(self.throwOnChange,self._expr_11,currVal_11)) {
self.renderer.setText(self._text_1,currVal_11);
self._expr_11 = currVal_11;
}
```,
After:
```
var currVal_10 = self.context.bgColor;
jit_checkRenderStyle14(self,self._el_0,'backgroundColor',null,self._expr_10,self._expr_10=currVal_10,false,jit_21);
var currVal_11 = jit_inlineInterpolate15(1,' ',self.context.data.value,' ');
jit_checkRenderText16(self,self._text_1,self._expr_11,self._expr_11=currVal_11,false);
```
Performance impact:
- None seen (checked against internal latency lab)
Part of #13651
Note: This checks the constructors of `@Injectable` classes more strictly.
E.g this will fail now as the constructor argument has no `@Inject` nor is
the type of the argument a DI token.
```
@Injectable()
class MyService {
constructor(dep: string) {}
}
```

Now that rxjs is stable and the rxjs team follows semver, we can update and unpin the dependency safely.
From now on the Angular application/library developers are in charge of controlling the rxjs version as long as it's newer than 5.0.1.

- Full support for content projection in downgraded Angular 2
components. In particular, this enables multi-slot projection and
other features on <ng-content>.
- Correctly wire up hierarchical injectors for downgraded Angular 2
components: downgraded components inherit the injector of the first
other downgraded Angular 2 component they find up the DOM tree.
