Closes#9729
BREAKING CHANGE:
`Type` is now `Type<T>` which means that in most cases you have to
use `Type<any>` in place of `Type`.
We don't expect that any user applications use the `Type` type.
Because
- `Form` is **exported** -- see line 30/31 of
`modules/@angular/forms/src/forms.ts`: i.e., <br>`export {Form} from
'./directives/form_interface'`; and
- Methods of `Form`, which are public, have an
`AbstractFormGroupDirective` parameter;
e.g.,<br>`Form.getFormGroup(dir: AbstractFormGroupDirective):
FormGroup`.
Then it makes sense for `AbstractFormGroupDirective` to be
public/exported too. In any case, if it isn't exported then the **API
docs for `Form` don't get generated properly.**
Note about the addition of `beforeEach(fakeAsync(inject(…))))` in some tests:
`ApplicationRef` is now using `ngOnDestroy` and there is eager,
including all of its dependencies which contain `NgZone`.
The additional `fakeAsync` in `beforeEach` ensures that `NgZone`
uses the fake async zone as parent, and not the root zone.
BREAKING CHANGE (via deprecations):
- `ApplicationRef.dispose` is deprecated. Destroy the module that was
created during bootstrap instead by calling `NgModuleRef.destroy`.
- `AplicationRef.registerDisposeListener` is deprecated.
Use the `ngOnDestroy` lifecycle hook for providers or
`NgModuleRef.onDestroy` instead.
- `disposePlatform` is deprecated. Use `destroyPlatform` instead.
- `PlatformRef.dipose()` is deprecated. Use `PlatformRef.destroy()`
instead.
- `PlatformRef.registerDisposeListener` is deprecated. Use
`PlatformRef.onDestroy` instead.
- `PlaformRef.diposed` is deprecated. Use `PlatformRef.destroyed`
instead.
This contains major changes to the compiler, bootstrap of the platforms
and test environment initialization.

BREAKING CHANGE:
- Semantics and name of `@AppModule` (now `@NgModule`) changed quite a bit.
This is actually not breaking as `@AppModules` were not part of rc.4.
We will have detailed docs on `@NgModule` separately.
- `coreLoadAndBootstrap` and `coreBootstrap` can't be used any more (without migration support).
Use `bootstrapModule` / `bootstrapModuleFactory` instead.
- All Components listed in routes have to be part of the `declarations` of an NgModule.
Either directly on the bootstrap module / lazy loaded module, or in an NgModule imported by them.
Closes#9732
BREAKING CHANGE:
We have removed the deprecated form directives from the built-in platform directive list, so apps are not required to package forms with their app. This also makes forms friendly to offline compilation.
Instead, we have exposed three modules:
OLD API:
- `DeprecatedFormsModule`
NEW API:
- `FormsModule`
- `ReactiveFormsModule`
If you provide one of these modules, the default forms directives and providers from that module will be available to you app-wide. Note: You can provide both the `FormsModule` and the `ReactiveFormsModule` together if you like, but they are fully-functional separately.
**Before:**
```ts
import {disableDeprecatedForms, provideForms} from @angular/forms;
bootstrap(App, [
disableDeprecatedForms(),
provideForms()
]);
```
**After:**
```ts
import {DeprecatedFormsModule} from @angular/common;
bootstrap(App, {modules: [DeprecatedFormsModule] });
```
-OR-
```ts
import {FormsModule} from @angular/forms;
bootstrap(App, {modules: [FormsModule] });
```
-OR-
```ts
import {ReactiveFormsModule} from @angular/forms;
bootstrap(App, {modules: [ReactiveFormsModule] });
```
You can also choose not to provide any forms module and run your app without forms.
Or you can choose not to provide any forms module *and* provide form directives at will. This will allow you to use the deprecatedForms API for some components and not others.
```
import {FORM_DIRECTIVES, FORM_PROVIDERS} from @angular/forms;
@Component({
selector: some-comp,
directives: [FORM_DIRECTIVES],
providers: [FORM_PROVIDERS]
})
class SomeComp
```
- ts-api-guardian will now error if a new public symbol is added with a stability marker (`@stable`, `@experimental`, `@deprecated`)
- DomEventsPlugin and KeyEventsPlugin were removed from public api surface - these classes is an implementation detail
- deprecated BROWSER_PROVIDERS was removed completely
- `@angular/compiler` was removed from the ts-api-guardian check since this package shouldn't contain anything that users need to directly import
- the rest of the api surface was conservatively marked as stable or experimental
BREAKING CHANGES: DomEventsPlugin and KeyEventsPlugin previously exported from core are no longer public - these classes are implementation detail.
Previously deprecated BROWSER_PROVIDERS was completely removed from platform-browser.

Ref #9234
BREAKING CHANGE:
`ComponentFixture` will be moving out of `@angular/compiler/testing` to `@angular/core/testing` in
this release. For now, it is deprecated from `@angular/compiler/testing`.
Previously, we were exporting internal mocks and helpers. Move these
to core/testing/testing_internal or remove them if they were
never used.
Remove deprecated items - injectAsync, clearPendingTimers.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Remove the following APIs from `@angular/core/testing`, which have been deprecated or were
never intended to be publicly exported:
```
injectAsync
clearPendingTimers
Log
MockAppliacationHref
MockNgZone
clearPendingTimers
getTypeOf
instantiateType
```
Instead of `injectAsync`, use `async(inject())`.
`clearPendingTimers` is no longer required.
Mostly, removing things that were never intended to be exported publicy.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The following are no longer publicly exported APIs. They were intended as internal
utilities and you should use your own util:
```
browserDetection,
dispatchEvent,
el,
normalizeCSS,
stringifyElement,
expect (and custom matchers for Jasmine)
```
This lets users continue using runtime-sideeffect Decorators if they choose,
only down-leveling the marked ones to Annotations.
Also remove the "skipTemplateCodegen" option, which is no longer needed
since Angular compiles with tsc-wrapped rather than ngc. The former doesn't
include any codegen.
