Previously, the relative order of the AngularJS compiling/linking operations was
not similar to AngularJS's, resulting in inconsistent behavior for upgraded
components (which made upgrading to Angular less straight forward).
This commit fixes it, by following the compiling/linking process of AngularJS
more closely.
Main differences:
- The components view is already populated when the controller is instantiated
(and subsequent hooks are called).
- The correct DOM content is available when running the `$onChanges`, `$onInit`,
`$doCheck` hooks. Previously, the "content children" were still present, not
the "view children".
- The same for pre-linking.
- The template is compiled in the correct DOM context (e.g. has access to
ancestors). Previously, it was compiled in isolation, inside a dummy element.
For reference, here is the order of operations:
**Before**
1. Compile template
2. Instantiate controller
3. Hook: $onChanges
4. Hook: $onInit
5. Hook: $doCheck
6. Pre-linking
7. Collect content children
8. Insert compiled template
9. Linking
10. Post-linking
11. Hook: $postLink
**After**
1. Collect content children
2. Insert template
3. Compile template
4. Instantiate controller
5. Hook: $onChanges
6. Hook: $onInit
7. Hook: $doCheck
8. Pre-linking
9. Linking
10. Post-linking
11. Hook: $postLink
