TypeScript compiler will now build to ES2015 code and modules. Babili is used to minify ES2015
code, providing an initial optimization that we couldn't previously get just from Uglify. Uses
Babel to convert ES2015 to UMD/ES5 code, and Uglify to minimize the output.
Some versions of TypeScript are super slow to compile functions that
contain a lot of `if` conditions in them. Splitting the handle event
expressions per element is similar to what we did in the old codegen.
Note that this does not yet include enabling the view engine
by default.
Included refactoring:
- view engine: split namespace of elements / attributes already
when creating the `NodeDef`
- view engine: when injecting the old `Renderer`, use an implementation
that is based on `RendererV2`
- view engine: store view queries in the component view, not
on the host element
Included refactoring:
- splits the `RendererV2` into a `RendererFactoryV2` and a `RendererV2`
- makes the `DebugRendererV2` a private class in `@angular/core`
- remove `setBindingDebugInfo` from `RendererV2`, but rename `RendererV2.setText` to
`RendererV2.setValue` and allow it on comments and text nodes.

Aspects: di, query, content projection
Included refactoring:
- use a number as query id
- use a bloom filter for aggregating matched queries of nested elements
- separate static vs dynamic queries

- PlatformState provides an interface to serialize the current Platform State as a string or Document.
- renderModule and renderModuleFactory are convenience methods to wait for Angular Application to stabilize and then render the state to a string.
- refactor code to remove defaultDoc from DomAdapter and inject DOCUMENT where it's needed.
Included refactoring:
- make ViewData.parentIndex point to component provider index
- split NodeType.Provider into Provider / Directive / Pipe
- make purePipe take the real pipe as argument to detect changes
- order change detection:
1) directive props
2) renderer props

BREAKING CHANGE:
- `KeyValueDifferFactory` and `IterableDifferFactory` no longer have `ChangeDetectorRef` as
a parameter. It was not used and has been there for historical reasons. If you call
`DifferFactory.create(...)` remove the `ChangeDetectorRef` argument.
- Make sure `NodeDef`s don’t fall into dictionary mode.
- Use strategy pattern to add debug information / checks, instead of constantly checking for `isDevMode`.
- introduce a very light weight `RendererV2` interface to not have duplicate
code paths for direct and non direct rendering
The strategy pattern is implemented via the new `Services` object.

Note that the duplication in tsconfig.json files will be fixed in a followup CL now that we have tsconfig inheritance
BREAKING CHANGE: Angular 4 will support only TypeScript 2.1, so we no longer provide backwards compatibility to TS 1.8.
Subclassing errors is problematic since Error returns a
new instance. All of the patching which we do than prevent
proper application of source maps.

`ComponentFactory`s can now be created from a `ViewDefinitionFactory` via
`RefFactory.createComponentFactory`.
This commit also:
- splits `Services` into `Refs` and `RootData`
- changes `ViewState` into a bitmask
- implements `ViewContainerRef.move`

Note, this affects the underlying class and should not affect usage.
DEPRECATION:
- the `NgFor` class is now deprecated. Use `NgForOf<T>` instead.
IMPORTANT: Only the `NgFor` class is deprecated, not the `ngFor`
directive. The `*ngFor` and related directives are unaffected by
this change as references to the `NgFor` class generated from
templates will be automatically converted to references to
`NgForOf<T>` without requiring any template modifications.
- `TrackByFn` is now deprecated. Use `TrackByFunction<T>` instead.
Migration:
- Replace direct references to the `NgFor` class to `NgForOf<any>`.
- Replace references to `TrackByFn` to `TrackByFunction<any>`.
BREAKING CHANGE:
A definition of `Iterable<T>` is now required to correctly compile
Angular applications. Support for `Iterable<T>` is not required at
runtime but a type definition `Iterable<T>` must be available.
`NgFor`, and now `NgForOf<T>`, already supports `Iterable<T>` at
runtime. With this change the type definition is updated to reflect
this support.
Migration:
- add "es2015.iterable.ts" to your tsconfig.json "libs" fields.

Make sure that context (`this`) that is passed to functions generated by test helpers is passed through to the callback functions. Enables usage of Jasmine's variable sharing system to prevent accidental memory leaks during test runs.
