BREAKING CHANGE: the compiler option `enableLegacyTemplate` is now disabled by default as the `<template>` element has been deprecated since v4. Use `<ng-template>` instead. The option `enableLegacyTemplate` and the `<template>` element will both be removed in Angular v6.

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 is needed as the typescript no longer elides type reexports
in the generated code when using transformers.
A nice side effect is that this make summaries shorter and produces
less reexports as we rollup reexports.

After this, neither @angular/compiler nor @angular/comnpiler-cli depend
on @angular/core.
This add a duplication of some interfaces and enums which is stored
in @angular/compiler/src/core.ts

`@angular/platform-browser-dynamic` as a peer dependency.

This change allows users to specify multiple exportAs names for a
directive by giving a comma-delimited list inside the string.
The primary motivation for this change is to allow these names to be
changed in a backwards compatible way.
This also allows to customize the filePaths in `.ngsummary.json` file
via the new methods `toSummaryFileName` and `fromSummaryFileName`
on the `CompilerHost`.
This change allows ReflectiveInjector to be tree shaken resulting
in not needed Reflect polyfil and smaller bundles.
Code savings for HelloWorld using Closure:
Reflective: bundle.js: 105,864(34,190 gzip)
Static: bundle.js: 154,889(33,555 gzip)
645( 2%)
BREAKING CHANGE:
`platformXXXX()` no longer accepts providers which depend on reflection.
Specifically the method signature when from `Provider[]` to
`StaticProvider[]`.
Example:
Before:
```
[
MyClass,
{provide: ClassA, useClass: SubClassA}
]
```
After:
```
[
{provide: MyClass, deps: [Dep1,...]},
{provide: ClassA, useClass: SubClassA, deps: [Dep1,...]}
]
```
NOTE: This only applies to platform creation and providers for the JIT
compiler. It does not apply to `@Compotent` or `@NgModule` provides
declarations.
Benchpress note: Previously Benchpress also supported reflective
provides, which now require static providers.
DEPRECATION:
- `ReflectiveInjector` is now deprecated as it will be remove. Use
`Injector.create` as a replacement.

The static reflectory check for macro function recursion was too
agressive and disallowed calling a function with argument that also
calls the same function. For example, it disallowed nested animation
groups.

- /deep/ is deprecated and being removed from Chrome
- >>> is semantically invalid in a stylesheet
- sass will no longer support either in any version of sass
-> use ::ng-deep in emulated shadow DOM mode
Because the deep combinator is deprecated in the CSS spec,
`/deep/`, `>>>` and `::ng-deep` are also deprecated in emulated shadow DOM mode
and will be removed in the future.

Refactoring the compiler to use transformers moves the code generation
after type-checking which suppresses the errors TypeScript would
generate in the user code.
`TypeChecker` currently produces the same factory code that was
generated prior the switch to transfomers, getting back the same
diagnostics as before. The refactoring will allow the code to
diverge from the factory code and allow better diagnostic error
messages than was previously possible by type-checking the factories.
These files are needed so that:
- user code can compile even without real codegen
- as tsc transformers cannot create but only change existing files
in the transformation pipeline.
This is required as e.g. `token` from `@Inject` is
accessed in string form via makeParamDecorator
but as a property in the `ReflectiveInjector`.
Closes#16889 as this is a more general fix.
Add source location as a note tag as `<note category="location">path/to/file.ts:start_line[,end_line]</note>`.
`[,end_line]` part is optional and specified only if the end line is different from the start line.
Fixes #16531
* refactor(core): provide error message in stack for reflective DI
Fixes#16355
* fix(compiler): make AOT work with `noUnusedParameters`
Fixes#15532
* refactor: use view engine also for `NgModuleFactory`s
This is a prerequisite for being able to mock providers
in AOTed code later on.
Template expressions can now use a post-fix `!` operator
that asserts the target of the operator is not null. This is
similar to the TypeScript non-null assert operator. Expressions
generated in factories will be generated with the non-null assert
operator.

This only shows up in the language service. Calls to symbols
that are not resolve resulted in null instead of being resolved
causing the language service to see exceptions when the null

Allows to inherit ctor args, lifecycle hooks and statics from a class
in another compilation unit.
Will error if trying to inherit from a class in another compilation unit
that has an `@Component` / `@Directive` / `@Pipe` / `@NgModule`.
`ngc` would look for flat module resources relative to the flat module index.
`ngc` now looks for flat module resources relative to the `.d.ts` file that declarates
the component.

DEPRECATION:
- the arguments `inputs` / `outputs` / `ngContentSelectors` of `downgradeComponent`
are no longer used as Angular calculates these automatically now.
- Compiler.getNgContentSelectors is deprecated. Use
ComponentFactory.ngContentSelectors instead.
E.g. for a component like this:
```
@Component({
template: ‘<ng-content select=“child”></ng-content>’
})
class MyComp {
@Input(‘aInputName’)
aInputProp: string;
@Output(‘aEventName’)
aOuputProp: EventEmitter<any>;
}
```
the `ComponentFactory` will now contain the following:
- `inputs = {aInputProp: ‘aInputName’}`
- `outputs = {aOutputProp: ‘aOutputName’}`
- `ngContentSelectors = [‘child’]`
Fixes:
- In G3, filePaths don’t start with a `/` and therefore became relative.
- Always using the `ng://` prefix groups angular resources in the same
way for AOT and JIT.
Inlcuded fixes:
- include preamble in generated source map
- always add a mapping for line/col 0 so that the
generated sourcemap is not sparse
- use a uniue sourceUrl for inline templates even
in the AOT case

* feat(common): support `as` syntax in template/* bindings
Closes#15020
Showing the new and the equivalent old syntax.
- `*ngIf="exp as var1”`
=> `*ngIf="exp; let var1 = ngIf”`
- `*ngFor="var item of itemsStream |async as items”`
=> `*ngFor="var item of itemsStream |async; let items = ngForOf”`
* feat(common): convert ngIf to use `*ngIf="exp as local“` syntax
* feat(common): convert ngForOf to use `*ngFor=“let i of exp as local“` syntax
* feat(common): expose NgForOfContext and NgIfContext
In v2.x, users had to annotate classes that they intended to use as tokens with `@Injectable`. This is no longer required in v4.x for tokens,
and we now require the constructor parameters of classes annotated
with `@Injectable` to be statically analyzable by ngc.
This commit reduces the error into a warning
if the constructor parameters do not meet this condition.
DEPRECATION:
- Classes annotated with `@Injectable` but whose constructor’s parameter types
are not statically analyzable by ngc will produce a warning.
Closes#15003
Currently, it says:
Unexpected value 'FuzzyTimePipe in
javascript/angular2/example/search/fuzzy_time.ts' declared by the module
'SearchModule in javascript/angular2/example/search/search_module.ts'
The new error message also suggests: 'Please add a @Pipe/@Directive/@Component annotation.'
The main use case for the generated source maps is to give
errors a meaningful context in terms of the original source
that the user wrote.
Related changes that are included in this commit:
* renamed virtual folders used for jit:
* ng://<module type>/module.ngfactory.js
* ng://<module type>/<comp type>.ngfactory.js
* ng://<module type>/<comp type>.html (for inline templates)
* error logging:
* all errors that happen in templates are logged
from the place of the nearest element.
* instead of logging error messages and stacks separately,
we log the actual error. This is needed so that browsers apply
source maps to the stack correctly.
* error type and error is logged as one log entry.
Note that long-stack-trace zone has a bug that
disables source maps for stack traces,
see https://github.com/angular/zone.js/issues/661.

- DebugNode.source no more returns the source location of a node.
