BREAKING CHANGES:
`ViewManager.createView` / `ViewContainerRef.create` have been split into 2 methods:
- `createHostView` which takes dynamically created bindings
- `createEmbeddedView` which takes the newly introduced `TemplateRef`
The new type `TemplateRef` is the combination of a `ProtoViewRef` and and `ElementRef`
from the same place. Use `TemplateRef` when working with embedded views in
`ng-if`, `ng-for`, ... instead of `ProtoViewRef`.
Also, `ProtoViewRef` is no more injectable, but `TemplateRef` is.
First part of #1989 to clean up manual content projection.
Closes#3114
Closes#2529
BREAKING CHANGES:
- shadow dom emulation no longer
supports the `<content>` tag. Use the new `<ng-content>` instead
(works with all shadow dom strategies).
- removed `DomRenderer.setViewRootNodes` and `AppViewManager.getComponentView`
-> use `DomRenderer.getNativeElementSync(elementRef)` and change shadow dom directly
- the `Renderer` interface has changed:
* `createView` now also has to support sub views
* the notion of a container has been removed. Instead, the renderer has
to implement methods to attach views next to elements or other views.
* a RenderView now contains multiple RenderFragments. Fragments
are used to move DOM nodes around.
Internal changes / design changes:
- Introduce notion of view fragments on render side
- DomProtoViews and DomViews on render side are merged,
AppProtoViews are not merged, AppViews are partially merged
(they share arrays with the other merged AppViews but we keep
individual AppView instances for now).
- DomProtoViews always have a `<template>` element as root
* needed for storing subviews
* we have less chunks of DOM to clone now
- remove fake ElementBinder / Bound element for root text bindings
and model them explicitly. This removes a lot of special cases we had!
- AppView shares data with nested component views
- some methods in AppViewManager (create, hydrate, dehydrate) are iterative now
* now possible as we have all child AppViews / ElementRefs already in an array!
These wrappers are not natively understood by
ts2dart. Removing them will improve Dart2JS
compilation due to fewer megamorphic calls to List
functions.
It also makes Angular code more succinct and
improves type safety in Angular due to better type
inference of the Array component type.
This change exposed several bugs in Angular.

BREAKING CHANGE
- `Compiler.compile` has been removed, the only way to compile
components dynamically is via `Compiler.compileInHost`
- `DynamicComponentLoader.loadIntoExistingLocation` has changed:
* renamed into `loadIntoLocation`
* will always create the host element as well
* requires an element with a variable inside of the host component view
next to which it will load new component.
- `DynamicComponentLoader.loadNextToExistingLocation` was renamed into
`DynamicComponentLoader.loadNextToLocation`
- `DynamicComponentLoader.loadIntoNewLocation` is removed
* use `DynamicComponentLoader.loadNextToLocation` instead
and then move the view nodes
manually around via `DomRenderer.getRootNodes()`
- `AppViewManager.{create,destroy}Free{Host,Embedded}View` was removed
* use `AppViewManager.createViewInContainer` and then move the view nodes
manually around via `DomRenderer.getRootNodes()`
- `Renderer.detachFreeView` was removed. Use `DomRenderer.getRootNodes()`
to get the root nodes of a view and detach them manually.
clang-format 1.0.17 substantially improves formatting for fat arrow functions
and array literal detection. It also fixes a number of minor formatting issues.
