To avoid showing outdated info (such as events, resources, etc.) but
still allow people to see docs for older versions, we redirect
non-documentation URLs to `/docs`. Recently(-ish) we have added
documentation content under the `/cli/...` and `/start/...`
path-prefixes, but we haven't added them to the list of documentation
URLs that should not be redirected. As a result, on archive deployments
(e.g. https://v7.angular.io/cli), they are redirected to `/docs`, making
it impossible to see the documentation for these versions (unless you
know about the `?mode=stable` work-around).
This commit fixes it by adding `cli` and `start` to the list of
documentation URLs that are excluded from redirection.

Previously we just logged a warning but we should fail
to prevent silently allowing the docs to look wrong if
something changes on the CLI side of things.

Previously, when switching to Ivy mode (e.g. to run tests on CI), we had
to add `allowEmptyCodegenFiles: true` to the `angularCompilerOptions` in
`tsconfig.app.json`.
This isn't necessary any more (potentially since we switched to dynamic
imports for loading lazy modules in #30704), so this commit removes it
from the `switch-to-ivy.js` script.

The "view" links were broken because the version used to
compute the git tag for the GitHub URL included a build SHA.
Now we clean that off before using it in the URL.
The links are to the JSON schema that defines the documentation for
the command. This is accurate but confusing because the content for the
long description is stored in a separate markdown file referenced from this
schema file.
This commit adds a second set of links for the long description, if it exists,
which links directly to the markdown file.

In View Engine, NgModule factories are created for each NgModule and loaded when the module is requested. Ivy doesn't generate the
factories by design and only loads the module class, so it must be compiled after being loaded.

"You need to do nothing" indicates the presence of an action (the action of doing nothing) while the goal is to tell the user that no action is required from them. I think "You don’t need to do anything" is better suitable in this context.

This commit makes the static flag on @ViewChild and @ContentChild required.
BREAKING CHANGE:
In Angular version 8, it's required that all @ViewChild and @ContentChild
queries have a 'static' flag specifying whether the query is 'static' or
'dynamic'. The compiler previously sorted queries automatically, but in
8.0 developers are required to explicitly specify which behavior is wanted.
This is a temporary requirement as part of a migration; see
https://angular.io/guide/static-query-migration for more details.
@ViewChildren and @ContentChildren queries are always dynamic, and so are
unaffected.

DEPRECATION:
platform-webworker has been around since the initial release of Angular
version 2. It began as an experiment to leverage Angular's rendering
architecture and try something different: to run an entire web application
in a web worker.
We've learned a lot from this experiment, and have come to the conclusion
that pushing entire applications to run in a web worker is not a recipe for
success for most applications. This is due to a number of unresolved issues,
including:
* Poor or non-existent support for web worker APIs in web crawlers/indexers.
* Poor support in build and bundling tooling.
As a result, as of Angular version 8, we are deprecating the
`platform-webworker` APIs in Angular. This consists of both NPM packages,
`@angular/platform-webworker` and `@angular/platform-webworker-dynamic`.
Going forward, we will focus our efforts related to web workers around their
primary use case of offloading CPU-intensive but not critical work.
