BREAKING CHANGE:
Exceptions are no longer part of the public API. We don't expect that anyone should be referring to the Exception types.
ExceptionHandler.call(exception: any, stackTrace?: any, reason?: string): void;
change to:
ErrorHandler.handleError(error: any): void;
The directiveIntrospector was a bit of a hack to allow the router to
read the `$routeConfig` annocation and `$routerCanActivate` hook from
directives when they were registered.
It turns out that if we put these properties on the component controller's
constructor function (i.e. as static class methods) then we can simply
use the `$injector` to access it as required.
Currently, people put the properties directly on their component definition
objects. In Angular 1.5.1, we will copy these properties onto the controller
constructor to maintain a simple migration path. But going forward it may be
better to encourage people to add the properties directly to the controller
constructor.
The singleton service that represents the top level router was called
`$router` but this is confusing since there are actually lots of routers,
which depend upon where you are in the DOM. This is similar to the situation
with scopes.
This commit clarifies this singleton by renaming it to `$rootRouter`.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The `$router` injectable service has been renamed to `$rootRouter`
In angular2 `Location.path()` returns the complete path including query string. In angular1 the query parameters are missing. Similar to this `Location.go` does accept two parameters (path *and query*).

This is a big change. @matsko also deserves much of the credit for the implementation.
Previously, `ComponentInstruction`s held all the state for async components.
Now, we introduce several subclasses for `Instruction` to describe each type of navigation.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Redirects now use the Link DSL syntax. Before:
```
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/foo', redirectTo: '/bar' },
{ path: '/bar', component: BarCmp }
])
```
After:
```
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/foo', redirectTo: ['Bar'] },
{ path: '/bar', component: BarCmp, name: 'Bar' }
])
```
BREAKING CHANGE:
This also introduces `useAsDefault` in the RouteConfig, which makes cases like lazy-loading
and encapsulating large routes with sub-routes easier.
Previously, you could use `redirectTo` like this to expand a URL like `/tab` to `/tab/posts`:
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/tab', redirectTo: '/tab/users' }
{ path: '/tab', component: TabsCmp, name: 'Tab' }
])
AppCmp { ... }
Now the recommended way to handle this is case is to use `useAsDefault` like so:
```
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/tab', component: TabsCmp, name: 'Tab' }
])
AppCmp { ... }
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/posts', component: PostsCmp, useAsDefault: true, name: 'Posts' },
{ path: '/users', component: UsersCmp, name: 'Users' }
])
TabsCmp { ... }
```
In the above example, you can write just `['/Tab']` and the route `Users` is automatically selected as a child route.

This reverts commit cf7292fcb1f41bef4bda425c65be169588f357f4.
This commit triggered an existing race condition in Google code. More work is needed on the Router to fix this condition before this refactor can land.

BREAKING CHANGE:
Previously, route configuration took a controller constructor function as the value of
`component` in a route definition:
```
$route.config([
{ route: '/', component: MyController }
])
```
Based on the name of the controller, we used to use a componentMapper service to
determine what template to pair with each controller, how to bind the instance to
the $scope.
To make the 1.x router more semantically alligned with Angular 2, we now route to a directive.
Thus a route configuration takes a normalized directive name:
```
$route.config([
{ route: '/', component: 'myDirective' }
])
```
BREAKING CHANGE:
In order to avoid name collisions, lifecycle hooks are now prefixed with `$`. Before:
```
MyController.prototype.onActivate = ...
```
After:
```
MyController.prototype.$onActivate = ...
```
Same for `$canActivate` (which now lives on the directive factory function),
`$canDeactivate`, `$canReuse`, and `$onDeactivate` hooks.
