TypeScript compiler will now build to ES2015 code and modules. Babili is used to minify ES2015
code, providing an initial optimization that we couldn't previously get just from Uglify. Uses
Babel to convert ES2015 to UMD/ES5 code, and Uglify to minimize the output.
This change installs HttpModule with ServerModule, and overrides bindings to
service Http requests made from the server with the 'xhr2' NPM package.
Outgoing requests are wrapped in a Zone macro-task, so they will be tracked
within the Angular zone and cause the isStable API to show 'false' until they
return. This is essential for Universal support of server-side HTTP.
Note that the duplication in tsconfig.json files will be fixed in a followup CL now that we have tsconfig inheritance
BREAKING CHANGE: Angular 4 will support only TypeScript 2.1, so we no longer provide backwards compatibility to TS 1.8.
Subclassing errors is problematic since Error returns a
new instance. All of the patching which we do than prevent
proper application of source maps.

- 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();
}
```

The change avoids the compiler CLI internal API from mismatching the following case as lazy loading
```
import { NonLazyLoadedModule } from './non-lazy-loaded/non-lazy-loaded.module';
export function getNonLazyLoadedModule() { return NonLazyLoadedModule; }
export const routes = [
{ path: '/some-path', loadChildren: getNonLazyLoadedModule }
];
```
The output of the check is later passed to `RouteDef.fromString()`, so, it makes sense to be only a string.
Fixesangular/angular-cli#3204
This change adds Compiler CLI support for any level of nesting for lazy routes.
For example `{app-root}/lazy-loaded-module-1/lazy-loaded-module-2/lazy-loaded-module-3`
Where `lazy-loaded-module-3` is lazy loaded from `lazy-loaded-module-2`,
and `lazy-loaded-module-2` is lazy loaded from module `lazy-loaded-module-1`,
and `lazy-loaded-module-1` is lazy loaded from `AppModule`
Fixesangular/angular-cli#3663
This was done in order for us to be able to publish tsc-wrapped as @next tag on npm.
The next step is to change the build scripts to version and release @angular/tsc-wrapped
together with all the other packages. I'll create an issue/PR for this.
@angular/language-service now supports using TypeScript 2.1 as the
the TypeScript host. TypeScript 2.1 is now also partially supported
in `ngc` but is not recommended as Tsickle does not yet support 2.1.
This change retracts support for metadata version 2.
The collector used to produce version 2 metadata was incomplete
and can cause the AOT compiler to fail to resolve symbols or
produce other spurious errors.
All libraries compiled and published with 2.3.0 ngc will need
to be recompiled and updated with this change.
When compiling libraries, this feature extracts the minimal information
from the directives/pipes/modules of the library into `.ngsummary.json` files,
so that applications that use this library only need to be recompiled
if one of the summary files change, but not on every change
of the libraries (e.g. one of the templates).
Only works if individual codegen for libraries is enabled,
see the `generateCodeForLibraries: false` option.
Closes#12787
