The API changes are due to enabling strict checks in TypeScript (via `strict: true`).
The payload size changes in `polyfills.js` are due to more browser APIs being patched in recent versions (e.g. `fetch`, `customElement v1`).

Introduces an update schematic for the "@angular/core" package
that automatically migrates pre-V8 "ViewChild" and "ContentChild"
queries to the new explicit timing syntax. This is not required
yet, but with Ivy, queries will be "dynamic" by default. Therefore
specifying an explicit query timing ensures that developers can
smoothly migrate to Ivy (once it's the default).
Read more about the explicit timing API here:

This flag is picked up by webpack v4 and used for more agressive optimizations.
Our code is already side-effect free, because that's what we needed for build-optimizer to work.

BREAKING CHANGE: after this change, npm and yarn will issue incompatible peerDependencies warning
We don't expect this to actually break an application, but the application/library package.json
will need to be updated to provide tslib 1.9.0 or higher.

"ng update" supports having multiple packages as part of a group which should be updated together, meaning that e.g. calling "ng update @angular/core" would be equivalent to updating all packages of the group (that are part of the package.json already).
In order to support the grouping feature, the package.json of the version the user is updating to needs to include an "ng-update" key that points to this metadata.
The entire specification for the update workflow can be found here: 2e8b12a4ef/docs/specifications/update.md
