Classes that are injectable often have constructors that should not be
called by the application developer. It is the responsibility of the
injector to instantiate the class and the constructor often contains
private implementation details that may need to change.
This commit removes constructors from the docs for API items that are
both:
a) Marked with an injectable decorator (e.g. Injectable, Directive,
Component, Pipe), and
b) Have no constructor description
This second rule allows the developer to override the removal if there
is something useful to say about the constructor.
Note that "normal" classes such as `angimations/HttpHeaders` do not have
their constructor removed, despite (at this time) having no description.

This change adds Github edit and view links to methods
and decorator options.
It is possible to add these to properties also but the
UI is rather tight as these are displayed in a table.
PR Close#24000
This heading is too high for the section because the
method name is a H3 but it cannot be a H4 because
usage notes may contain H4 headings.
PR Close#24000
The sections such as methods and decorator options are already headed
by a H3 heading so we need to map the H3 headings in the API doc source
down to H4 headings.
This commit includes general heading mapping functionality accessible via
the `marked` Nunjucks filter.

This commit adds new link disambiguators that mean that more
code links can be generated automatically in a sensible way.
The best example is the use of properties within class, interface and
enum documentation.

We don't really care when this processor runs as long as it happens
after the tags have been extracted.
By not constraining its `runBefore` property we can ensure that other
processors can be run before it.
PR Close#24000
Because we were "ignoring" these tags they were being
rendered as part of the previous tag.
What we really want to do is know about them, so that we
don't break the doc-gen but then ignore them when rendering.

Previously the API list was being generated before the stability had
been computed. This meant that the API list page showed no API docs
when filtering by `stable` stability status.

Previously only the `description` and `usageNotes` were being copied over
from the call-member of the decorator interface. Important properties such
as `shortDescription` were missed.
These are now added and the code has been refactored to make it simpler and
clearer to update which properties get copied as the requirements change.

* The member details section is now called "Members", rather
than "Properties".

"Member", "Value", "Description".
* The "Value" column is not shown if none of the members have
a value.

Previously these docs always displayed `any` as the type

This change adds:

We now create npm packages to cover all the public api assertions in tools/public_api_guard.
We no longer depend on ts-api-guardian from npm - it is now stale since the repository was archived.
There is no longer a gulp task to enforce or accept the public API, this is in CircleCI as part of running all bazel test targets.

The new version of `dgeni-packages/typescript` no longer strips
out "namespaces" from types, which was part of the problem of
not autolinking correctly to `HttpEventType.Response`.
Another part of the problem was that we did not include `.`
characters when matching potential code blocks for auto-linking,
which precluded properties of enums from being linked.
Finally, members we not being given a `path` property, which is
needed to effectively autolink to them. This is now set in
the `simplifyMemberAnchors` processor.

The `exampleMap` needs to hold an hash object for each
of the `collectExamples.exampleFolders` paths.
Previously these hash objects were only created if there
was actually an example file the hash's respective
example folder. This could cause crashes during
`yarn docs-watch` (and so also `yarn sync-and-serve`)
if no examples were read in for a particular run of
the doc-gen.

* The first paragraph is now split off into the `shortDescription` property.
* Usage of `howToUse` and `whatItDoes` have been updated.

This approach simplifies the styling needed considerably.
Previously, we had to make room on the left for heading that
are in visual containers. Also we had to apply a `float:right`
when on narrow screens as the gutter not available then.
This float didn't render nicely if the heading text was longer
than could be rendered on a single line.

Previously the generated files were cleaned out before
doc-gen began (via a yarn pre-script). This can cause a
race condition in the CLI server, which prevents the new
generated files from being picked up.
Now we delay the cleaning until the last minute to ensure
that they ar still picked up by the webpack server.

Using `display: none` on the `<h1>` causes `innerText` to not work as expected
and include the icon ligature (`link`) in the title. This caused the window
title on the angular.io Home page to appear as "Angular - link".

`no-anchor` class.

This PR was merged without API docs and general rollout plan.
We can't release this as is in 5.1 without a plan for documentation, cli integration, etc.
Checks that cause the doc-gen to fail were already disabled in `docs-watch`
for the doc-gen that runs when a file is changed.
Now these checks are also disabled for the initial doc-gen run.

By setting `renderExamples.ignoreBrokenExamples = true` the doc-gen will
not fail if there is something wrong with an example. Instead it will
just log a warning.
Upgrading to dgeni-packages 0.21.4 gives us
access to more properties on the API docs, which
allows us to fix the following issues:

This change will enable people to link to the API docs via their selectors
or names, as used in a template.
Since the selectors can be quite complex we are not able to get 100%
accuracy.

For classes, the tree of subclasses is rendered, recursively.
For interfaces, the descendants are separated into child interfaces, which
extend the interface, and classes, which implement the interface.

The API docs have changed. The line numbers are now found in
`startingLine` and `endingLine` properties rather than the `location`
property, which moved into the `fileInfo` property anyway.
The API docs tests have very variable run times, depending
upon the build environment.
This change doubles their test timeout values to prevent
false-negative failures.
Rather than hard coding excludes into the dgeni config,
use the fact that we are already ignoring the boilerplate
and generated files via the .gitignore file.
