There is an encoding issue with using delta `Δ`, where the browser will attempt to detect the file encoding if the character set is not explicitly declared on a `<script/>` tag, and Chrome will find the `Δ` character and decide it is window-1252 encoding, which misinterprets the `Δ` character to be some other character that is not a valid JS identifier character
So back to the frog eyes we go.

The `Δ` caused issue with other infrastructure, and we are temporarily
changing it to `ɵɵ`.
This commit also patches ts_api_guardian_test and AIO to understand `ɵɵ`.

Karma is not configured to retrieve the imported scripts using those
absolute deep paths. Using relative paths instead.

This change contains conditionally attached classes which provide human readable (debug) level
information for `LView`, `LContainer` and other internal data structures. These data structures
are stored internally as array which makes it very difficult during debugging to reason about the
current state of the system.
Patching the array with extra property does change the array's hidden class' but it does not
change the cost of access, therefore this patching should not have significant if any impact in
`ngDevMode` mode. (see: https://jsperf.com/array-vs-monkey-patch-array)
So instead of seeing:
```
Array(30) [Object, 659, null, …]
```
```
LViewDebug {
views: [...],
flags: {attached: true, ...}
nodes: [
{html: '<div id="123">', ..., nodes: [
{html: '<span>', ..., nodes: null}
]}
]
}
```
