Adds tests and fixes corners cases for both `search()` and `setSearc()`
for things like empty queries and param keys that need encoding.
This commit refactors the `LocationService` to rely upon the `PlatformLocation`
rather than using `window.history` directly. This makes testing easier but also
makes the code simpler since `PlatformLocation` deals with platforms that
do not support history for us.
For some reason the tree-shaker is not picking up these interfaces
(perhaps TS is not passing it through) when they are in the same file
as their related services. This results in a distracting warning message.
There is a weirdness in the Angular Location service.
If the `baseHref` is only a single slash (`'/'`) then it
changes it to be an empty string (`''`). The effect of this
is that `Location.normaliseUrl(url)` does not strip off the
leading slash from url paths.
The problem is that the leading slash only appears on the
initial Location path, and not on urls that arrive from subscribing
to the Location service.
This commit is a workaround this problem.
All the docs related files (docs-app, doc-gen, content, etc)
are now to be found inside the `/aio` folder.
The related gulp tasks have been moved from the top level
gulp file to a new one inside the `/aio` folder.
The structure of the `/aio` folder now looks like:
```
/aio/
build/ # gulp tasks
content/ #MARKDOWN FILES for devguides, cheatsheet, etc
devguides/
cheatsheets/
transforms/ #dgeni packages, templates, etc
src/
app/
assets/
content/ #HTML + JSON build artifacts produced by dgeni from /aio/content.
#This dir is .gitignored-ed
e2e/ #protractor tests for the doc viewer app
node_modules/ #dependencies for both the doc viewer builds and the dgeni stuff
#This dir is .gitignored-ed
gulpfile.js #Tasks for generating docs and building & deploying the doc viewer
```
Closes#14361
