- temporarily keeps the old sources under packages/tsc-wrapped
until the build scripts are changed to use compiler-cli everywhere.
- removes the compiler options `disableTransformerPipeline` that was introduced
in a previous beta of Angular 5, i.e. the transformer based compiler
is now always enabled.

This is a corner case, and converting them is what
was expected in G3. This also fits the fact that
we already convert package paths into relative paths.

With this commit the compiler will "lower" expressions into exported
variables for values the compiler does not need to know statically
in order to be able to generate a factory. For example:
```
providers: [{provider: 'token', useValue: calculated()}]
```
produced an error as the expression `calculated()` is not supported
by the compiler because `calculated` is not a
[known function](https://angular.io/guide/metadata#annotationsdecorators)
With this commit this is rewritten, during emit of the .js file, into
something like:
```
export var ɵ0 = calculated();
...
provdiers: [{provider: 'token', useValue: ɵ0}]
```
The compiler then will now generate a reference to the exported `ɵ0`
instead of failing to evaluate `calculated()`.

This also allows to customize the filePaths in `.ngsummary.json` file
via the new methods `toSummaryFileName` and `fromSummaryFileName`
on the `CompilerHost`.
The source map does not currently work with the transformer pipeline.
It will be re-enabled after TypeScript 2.4 is made the min version.
To revert to the former compiler, use the `disableTransformerPipeline` in
tsconfig.json:
```
{
"angularCompilerOptions": {
"disableTransformerPipeline": true
}
}
```
