Previously, due to a bug in Firebase hosting, requests to
`/index.html?<query>` would lead to an infinite redirect and eventually
a failure. This affected, for example, cache-busting requests from the
ServiceWorker, which look like: `/index.html?ngsw-cache-bust=...`
For more details see
https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/42518#issuecomment-858545483
This commit temporarily works around the bug by explicitly redirecting
`/index.html?<query>` to `/?<query>`.

The latest SW app version knows that `/devtools` should be redirected to
`/guide/devtools`. However, if a user has an older app version installed
(and until the SW downloads the latest version) they will get a 404 when
navigating to `/devtools`.
The reason is that the SW will see `/devtools` as a regular navigation
URL and serve `index.html` instead. The Angular app will then try to get
the content for `/devtools` by fetching `/generated/docs/devtools.json`
(which does not exist).
This commit fixes the issue by redirecting
`/generated/docs/devtools.json` to
`/geenrated/docs/guide/devtools.json`. When a user visits `/devtools`
for the first time, they will still be able to see the guide content
(while the SW updates in the background). On subsequent visits (once the
SW has downloaded the latest app version), they will be redirected to
`/guide/devtools`).
At a later time, once we are confident that the majority of users will
have updated to a newer app version, we can remove this temporary
redirect.

Previously, the `updating-to-version-*` URLs would redirect to the next
version update guide. More specifically:
- `/guide/updating-to-version-10` --> `https://v11.angular.io/guide/updating-to-version-11`
- `/guide/updating-to-version-11` --> `/guide/updating-to-version-12`
This seems confusing and inconsistent. Either all URLs should redirect
to the latest update guide (currently `/guide/updating-to-version-12`)
or each URL should redirect to the corresponding version.
This commit implements the second approach:
- `/guide/updating-to-version-10` --> `https://v10.angular.io/guide/updating-to-version-10`
- `/guide/updating-to-version-11` --> `https://v11.angular.io/guide/updating-to-version-11`

In #41788, logic was added to disambiguate case-insensitively equal docs
paths/URLs. This process includes appending a `-\d+` suffix to some
paths/URLs (for example, `/.../inject-1`). Unfortunately, some of the
Firebase redirects configured in `firebase.json` would match these URLs
and redirect them to non-existing paths.
Example failures: [stable][1], [next][2]
NOTE:
This was not picked up in the regular CI tests run for PRs, because the
local devserver and the preview server used to test PRs do not support
Firebase-like redirects.
This commit fixes this by ensuring these disambiguated paths/URLs are
not matched by the redirect rules by checking whether the part of the
suffix after the `-` contains any numeric digits. While this check is
not ideal, it should be good enough for our purpose, since the legacy
URLs that we do want to redirect contain suffixes such as `-class`,
`-function` and thus no numeric digits.

The Displaying Data in Views topic is actually a small tutorial
that describes Angular features such as interpolation and
structural directives. These content is already covered in
our getting started tutorial and in Tour of Heroes.
This change adds redirects to the Template Syntax section
of the Getting Started tutorial and deletes displaying-data.md.

With this change we add a short url to strict mode guide
(angular.io/strict -> angular.io/guide/strict-mode). This is important because
of two reasons.
1) Reduce the clutter in the terminal when we include the strict mode guide url in a prompt.
2) Easiler to share in conferences, slides etc..

v9.angular.io was used to pilot the firebase hosting multisites setup for angular.io.
The deployments so far have been done manually to control the deployment process.
This change, automates the deployment for v9.angular.io so that future deployments can be made from
the CI.
See https://angular-team.atlassian.net/browse/DEV-125 for more info.
In the process of updating the scripts I rediscovered a bug in the deploy-to-firebase.sh script that
incorrect compared two numbers as strings. This previously worked correctly because we were comparing
single digit numbers. With the release of v10, we now compare 9 > 10 which behaves differently for
strings and numbers. The bug was fixed by switching to an arithmetic comparison of the two variables.
This bug has been fixed on the master branch but not on the 9.1.x branch. I realized this during the
rebase, but found my version to be a bit cleaner, so I kept it.

With this change we add redirects for config files generated by the Angular CLI. These links form part of a comment in the generated files, thus it is important that they valid for the many years to come.

This simplifies the Firebase redirect config, removing a redundant
pattern (`/api/http`) which is covered by the previous pattern and
dropping an unused named captured segment (`:rest*`).
This change does not affect the redirection behavior for the deployed
apps, but allows the Firebase hosting emulator to work correctly.
(See [here][1] for more info.)
NOTE: Although we are not currently using the Firebase emulator for
development/testing, we might want to use it in the future.

Currently, the angular.io projects do not use Firebase's Realtime
Database and therefore we only need to configure and deploy changes for
`hosting`.
This commit removes the unused Realtime Database related configs and
files.

Firebase used to do it automatically (with `cleanUrls: true`), but it
stopped doing it unless the resulting URL corresponds to an existing
file (which is not always the case in angular.io; e.g. the resulting URL
might be matched by a new redirect rule).
This change in Firebase hosting behavior resulted in some URLs not being
correctly redirected (e.g. URLs to the archived v2 site, or `.html`
suffixed URLs from 3rd-party sites).
This commit fixes it, by configuring Firebase hosting to strip off the
`.html` extension and redirect (if no other redirect rule matched).

AIO is currently using a beta version of @angular/service-worker.
Since that was implemented, the SW has been rewritten and released
as part of Angular 5.0.0. This commit updates AIO to use the latest
implementation, with an appropriate configuration file that caches
the various AIO assets in useful ways.

The outdated webpack guide has been removed in #24478, but people might
still try to access it (via direct links or search-engine results).
Instead of returning 404, we will now redirect `/guide/webpack` to the
archived version of the guide at `v5.angular.io/guide/webpack`.

Because:
1. `docs` feels like a "top level" page, similar to `features`, `resources`, `events` etc.
2. This enables the ServiceWorker to pre-fetch/cache the document (similar to what happens with all
other direct children of `content/docs/`), without the need for special-casing it in
`ngsw-manifest.json`.
There are external resources that link to the old URLs. In order to avoid
breaking them, the old URLs are redirected to the new ones.

Previously, all URLs were rewritten to `index.html` in order to support
deep-linking. This works when navigating to URLs that correspond to existing
resources. E.g. navigating to `/tutorial` returns `index.html` and then the
`DocViewer` takes over and requests `tutorial.json`.
Navigating to a non-existent URL (e.g. `/foo`), will return `index.html`, which
in turn requests (the non-existent) `foo.json` and throws an error when trying
to parse the returned `index.html` as JSON.
This commit fixes it by only rewriting URLs that do not request a file (i.e. do
not include a `.` in the last path segment).
