`InitialNavigation` is used in `ExtraOptions`, which is already part of
the public API. Thus, `InitialNavigation` should be too. Not publicly
exporting it from `router/index.ts` seems an omission, since the type is
already annotated with the `@publicApi` JSDoc tag.
By publicly exporting `InitialNavigation`, it will also correctly appear
in the API docs on angular.io.

The proposed ES dynamic import() is now supported by the Angular CLI and the
larger toolchain. This renders the `loadChildren: string` API largely
redundant, as import() is far more natural, is less error-prone, and is
standards compliant. This commit deprecates the `string` form of
`loadChildren` in favor of dynamic import().
DEPRECATION:
When defining lazy-loaded route, Angular previously offered two options for
configuring the module to be loaded, both via the `loadChildren` parameter
of the route. Most Angular developers are familiar withthe `string` form of
this API. For example, the following route definition configures Angular to
load a `LazyModule` NgModule from `lazy-route/lazy.module.ts`:
```
[{
path: 'lazy',
loadChildren: 'lazy-route/lazy.module#LazyModule',
}]
```
This "magic string" configuration was previously necessary as there was
no dynamic module loading standard on the web. This has changed with the
pending standardization of dynamic `import()` expressions, which are now
supported in the Angular CLI and in web tooling in general. `import()`
offers a more natural and robust solution to dynamic module loading. The
above example can be rewritten to use dynamic `import()`:
```
[{
path: 'lazy',
loadChildren: () => import('./lazy-route/lazy.module').then(mod => mod.LazyModule),
}]
```
This form of lazy loading offers significant advantages in terms of:
* type checking via TypeScript
* simplicity of generated code
* future potential to run natively in supporting browsers
(see: [caniuse: dynamic import()](https://caniuse.com/#feat=es6-module-dynamic-import))
As a result, Angular is deprecating the `loadChildren: string` syntax in
favor of ES dynamic `import()`. An automatic migration will run during
`ng upgrade` to convert your existing Angular code to the new syntax.

The router loadChildren property already supports a promise that returns a NgModuleFactory, but the typings cause the compilation to fail.

The `setUpLocationSync` function in @angular/router/upgrade didn't previously let you sync hash-based navigations. With this change, you can now pass an option to `setUpLocationSync` that will make sure location changes run in Angular in hash-based apps.

This option means guards and resolvers will ignore changes when a provided predicate function returns `false`. This supports use cases where an application needs to ignore some param updates but not others. For example, changing a sort param in the URL might need to be ignored, whereas changing the a `project` param might require re-run of guards and resolvers.

This option means guards and resolvers will ignore changes to matrix parameters. Guards and resolvers will be rerun when the path changes, when path parameters change, or when query parameters change.
The primary use case for such a mode is when updating the UI and getting the URL to be in sync with local changes. For example, if displaying a sortable table, changing the sort direction is often handled by the table itself. But you would want to update the URL to be in sync with what's being displayed to the user. As long as the table sort direction is stored as a matrix parameter, you can use this option to update the URL without causing the overhead of re-running guards and resolvers.

CanLoad now defines UrlSegment[] as a second parameter of the function.
Users can store the initial url segments and refer to them later, e.g. to go
back to the original url after authentication via router.navigate(urlSegments).
Existing code still works as before because the second function parameter
does not have to be defined.

Within an @NgModule it's common to include in the imports a call to
a ModuleWithProviders function, for example RouterModule.forRoot().
The old ngc compiler was able to handle this pattern because it had
global knowledge of metadata of not only the input compilation unit
but also all dependencies.
The ngtsc compiler for Ivy doesn't have this knowledge, so the
pattern of ModuleWithProviders functions is more difficult. ngtsc
must be able to determine which module is imported via the function
in order to expand the selector scope and properly tree-shake
directives and pipes.
This commit implements a solution to this problem, by adding a type
parameter to ModuleWithProviders through which the actual module
type can be passed between compilation units.
The provider side isn't a problem because the imports are always
copied directly to the ngInjectorDef.

With these changes, the types are a little stricter now and also not
compatible with Protractor's jasmine-like syntax. So, we have to also
use `@types/jasminewd2` for e2e tests (but not for non-e2e tests).
I also had to "augment" `@types/jasminewd2`, because the latest
typings from [DefinitelyTyped][1] do not reflect the fact that the
`jasminewd2` version (v2.1.0) currently used by Protractor supports
passing a `done` callback to a spec.

Currently, NavigationStart there is no way to know if an navigation was triggered imperatively or via the location change. These two use cases should be handled differently for a variety of use cases (e.g., scroll position restoration).

Previously, the router would merge path and matrix params, as well as
data/resolve, with special rules (only merging down when the route has
an empty path, or is component-less). This change adds an extra option
"paramsInheritanceStrategy" which, when set to 'always', makes child
routes unconditionally inherit params from parent routes.
Closes#20572.
* The problem was with the `fireChildActivationStart` function. It was taking a `path` param, which was an
array of `ActivatedRouteSnapshot`s. The function was being fired for each piece of the route that was being
activated. This resulted in far too many `ChildActivationStart` events being fired, and being fired on routes
that weren't actually getting activated. This change fires the event only for those routes that are actually
being activated.

Destructuring of the form:
function foo({a, b}: {a?, b?} = {})
breaks strictNullChecks, due to the TypeScript bug https://github.com/microsoft/typescript/issues/10078.
This change eliminates usage of destructuring in function argument lists in cases where it would leak
into the public API .d.ts.
