This speeds up the compilation process significantly.
Also introduces a new option `fullTemplateTypeCheck` to do more checks in templates:
- check expressions inside of templatized content (e.g. inside of `<div *ngIf>`).
- check the arguments of calls to the `transform` function of pipes
- check references to directives that were exposed as variables via `exportAs`

- temporarily keeps the old sources under packages/tsc-wrapped
until the build scripts are changed to use compiler-cli everywhere.
- removes the compiler options `disableTransformerPipeline` that was introduced
in a previous beta of Angular 5, i.e. the transformer based compiler
is now always enabled.

With this change ngc now accepts a `-w` or a `--watch`
command-line option that will automatically perform a
recompile whenever any source files change on disk.

Previously, we only did this when setting the `generateCodeForLibraries: false`.
This is needed so that libraries compiled with `generateCodeForLibraries: true` can be used as dependencies of other compilation units.

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
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `@angular/platform-server` now additionally depends on
`@angular/platform-browser-dynamic` as a peer dependency.

This also allows to customize the filePaths in `.ngsummary.json` file
via the new methods `toSummaryFileName` and `fromSummaryFileName`
on the `CompilerHost`.
The source map does not currently work with the transformer pipeline.
It will be re-enabled after TypeScript 2.4 is made the min version.
To revert to the former compiler, use the `disableTransformerPipeline` in
tsconfig.json:
```
{
"angularCompilerOptions": {
"disableTransformerPipeline": true
}
}
```
