In the current version of zone.js, zone.js uses it's own package format, and it is not following the rule
of Angualr package format(APF), so it is not easily to be consumed by Angular CLI or other bundle tools.
For example, zone.js npm package has two bundles,
1. zone.js/dist/zone.js, this is a `es5` bundle.
2. zone.js/dist/zone-evergreen.js, this is a `es2015` bundle.
And Angular CLI has to add some hard-coding code to handle this case, o5376a8b139/packages/schematics/angular/application/files/src/polyfills.ts.template (L55-L58)
This PR upgrade zone.js npm package format to follow APF rule, https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CZC2rcpxffTDfRDs6p1cfbmKNLA6x5O-NtkJglDaBVs/edit#heading=h.k0mh3o8u5hx
The updated points are:
1. in package.json, update all bundle related properties
```
"main": "./bundles/zone.umd.js",
"module": "./fesm2015/zone.js",
"es2015": "./fesm2015/zone.js",
"fesm2015": "./fesm2015/zone.js",
```
2. re-organize dist folder, for example for `zone.js` bundle, now we have
```
dist/
bundles/
zone.js // this is the es5 bundle
fesm2015/
zone.js // this is the es2015 bundle (in the old version is `zone-evergreen.js`)
```
3. have several sub-packages.
1. `zone-testing`, provide zone-testing bundles include zone.js and testing libraries
2. `zone-node`, provide zone.js implemention for NodeJS
3. `zone-mix`, provide zone.js patches for both Browser and NodeJS
All those sub-packages will have their own `package.json` and the bundle will reference `bundles(es5)` and `fesm2015(es2015)`.
4. keep backward compatibility, still keep the `zone.js/dist` folder, and all bundles will be redirected to `zone.js/bundles` or `zone.js/fesm2015` folders.

The angular.io production deployment script (`deploy-to-firebase.sh`)
compares the major version corresponding to the current branch (e.g.
`8` for branch `8.1.x`) against the major stable version (e.g. `9` if
the current stable version is `9.1.0`). It then uses the result of that
comparison to determine whether the current branch corresponds to a
newer version than stable (i.e. an RC version) and thus should not be
deployed or to an older version and thus may need to be deployed to an
archive vX.angular.io project.
Previously, the script was using string comparison (`<`) to compare the
two major versions. This could produce incorrect results for an RC major
version that is numerically greater than the stable but
lexicographically smaller. For example, 10 vs 9 (10 is numerically
greater but lexicographically smaller than 9).
Example of a CI job that incorrectly tried to deploy an RC branch to
production: https://circleci.com/gh/angular/angular/726414
This commit fixes it by switching to an integer comparison (i.e. using
the `-lt` operator).

The `rev` property has been in the initial commit that introduced
`resources.json` (196203f6d7) and has been
added to all new entries since (always with the value `true`). This
field is a remnant from back when this data was stored in a Firebase
Database and the `rev` field indicated whether the entry has been
reviewed/approved by a DevRel lead or something. Now that the data is
kept in the repository and the reviewing is done as part of the
corresponding PR, this field is no longer necessary.

This commit includes the following improvements:
- Document that the `create-image.sh` script (and by extention the
`update-preview-server.sh` script) need to have access to a `yarn`
executable.
- Add a note on cron jobs running in non-interactive, non-login shells
(which affects their execution context and have different behavior vs
running the same commands in an interactive, login shell).
- Change the Node.js and `yarn` installation instructions to ensure the
`yarn` executable will be available on the `PATH` and not require an
interactive, login shell (as happens, for example, when installing it
via [nvm](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm)). This makes it easier to set
up a cron job that runs the `update-preview-server.sh` script.
NOTE: The equivalent updates have been made on the GCE VM that hosts the
PR preview server.

In order to avoid unnecessary operations, the `update-preview-server.sh`
script, that is used to update the PR preview server Docker container,
will only try to update the Docker container if either any files in the
`aio/aio-builds-setup/` directory have changed since the last update or
if a previous update failed. A failed previous update is detected by
checking whether the temporary `aio-builds:provisional` Docker image
still exists. This temporary image is created during the update
operation and is renamed to `aio-builds:latest` if the update goes well.
Previously, the update script was not able to detect a previous failed
attempt if the operation failed before creating the
`aio-builds:provisional` Docker image, such as if the `create-image.sh`
script failed. This could lead to a situation where the preview server
Docker container would not be updated after a failed attempt.
This commit improves the logic for detecting failed attempts to account
for this type of failures. It does this by not removing an older
`aio-builds:provisional` Docker image until a new one is successfully
created.
NOTE: While this is not full-proof, it is an improvement as it
eliminates a certain kind of failures.

After rewriting much of the router doc, it became apparent that the lazy loading/preloading information should be in the lazy loading doc rather than in the router doc. There is now instead a short section that touches on lazy loading but links to the lazy learning document instead of covering it in detail in the router doc.

The current implementation for redirecting users inside guards was in place
before the feature was added to allow `CanActivate` and `CanActivateChild` guards
to return `UrlTree` for redirecting users.
Returning `UrlTree` should be the default method, as it provides a more desirable
redirecting experience. When using `router.navigate` followed by `return false`,
the `Router` calls `resetUrlToCurrentUrlTree` (in the `finalize` operator) before
processing the navigation to the new route. This can result in an undesirable
history if the navigation was the first navigation in the application - that is,
the route will briefly be reset to just `/` (see #36187).

In the code base there are cases where there is, conceptually, a class
that is represented by a combination of an `interface`
(type declaration) and a `const` (value declaration).
For example:
```
export interface SomeClass {
count(a?: string): number;
}
export const: SomeClass = class {
someMethod(a: string = ''): number { ... }
};
```
These were being rendered as interfaces and also not
correctly showing the descriptions and default parameter
values.
In this commit such concepts are now rendered as classes.
The classes that are affected by this are:
* `DebugElement`
* `DebugNode`
* `Type`
* `EventEmitter`
* `TestBed`
Note that while decorators are also defined in this form
they have their own rendering type (`decorator`) and so
are not affecte by this.
