BREAKING_CHANGE:
- The special type of `Viewport` directives is removed
in favor of a more general `Decorator` directive
- `ViewContainerRef` now no more has a default `ProtoViewRef`
but requires an explicit one when creating views.
Closes#1536
Add utility methods to convert `render.dom.DirectiveMetadata` to and
from maps. This will allow saving and restoring `DirectiveMetadata` in
the Angular 2 Transformer.
We discussed adding this as a member on `DirectiveMetadata`. Since this
is not necessary for anything except the Transformer, we decided to put
it into a separate file to avoid shipping it with the Angular 2 core
code.
This is a prerequisite for switching to TypeScript. We need to remove the Traceur preprocessor
from Karma, so we have the build specified in a single place (broccoli tree def'n).
BREAKING CHANGES:
- `NgElement` merged into `ElementRef`
- `Compiler.compile…` returns `ProtoViewRef`
- `ViewContainer` uses `ProtoViewRef`s and `ViewRef`s.
- `ViewRef`/`ProtoViewRef` in renderer were renamed to
`RenderViewRef`/`RenderProtoViewRef`.

AppViewManager is the single entry point to changing the view hierarchy.
It is split between the manager itself which does coordination and
helper methods, so both are easily testable in isolation.
Also, ViewContainer is now only a pure reference to a bound element
with the previous functionality but does not contain the list of views
any more.
Part of #1477
We have Dart code in `angular2` module that ought to be in its own
package. Examples include Dart analysis plugins, and potentially the
transformers (although transformers cannot be moved out just yet).
However, this code is Dart-only and it doesn’t make sense to use JS
directory layout for it. This commit introduces a sub-directory called
`modules_dart`. All modules in this directory are pure Dart packages
using standard pub directory layout. The code in these packages never
gets transpiled. It is directly copied to `dist` unmodified, except an
adjustment in relative paths in `pubspec.yaml` files.
I didn't get a full trace back for my evidence I got from making this example work. EventEmitter was instantiated and assigned to wrong property. Also the mapping should be done using the component property name as it will be obtained via accessor and exposed on the directive (as far as I understood).
