Allows a directive to use the expression passed directly to a property
as a guard instead of filtering the type through a type expression.
This more accurately matches the intent of the ngIf usage of its template
enabling better type inference.
Moved NgIf to using this type of guard instead of a function guard.
Closes: #20967
Closure Compiler cannot infer that the swtich statement is exhaustive,
which causes it to complain that the method does not always return a
value.
Work around the problem by throwing an exception in the default case,
and using the `: never` type to ensure the code is unreachable.
Structural directives can now specify a type guard that describes
what types can be inferred for an input expression inside the
directive's template.
NgIf was modified to declare an input guard on ngIf.
After this change, `fullTemplateTypeCheck` will infer that
usage of `ngIf` expression inside it's template is truthy.
For example, if a component has a property `person?: Person`
and a template of `<div *ngIf="person"> {{person.name}} </div>`
the compiler will no longer report that `person` might be null or
undefined.
The template compiler will generate code similar to,
```
if (NgIf.ngIfTypeGuard(instance.person)) {
instance.person.name
}
```
to validate the template's use of the interpolation expression.
Calling the type guard in this fashion allows TypeScript to infer
that `person` is non-null.

This changes XhrBackend to not strip the XSSI prefix from error text
if such a prefix is present but the remaining body does not parse as
JSON.
PR Close#19958
Previously, XhrBackend would call JSON.parse('') if the response body was
empty (a 200 status code with content-length 0). This changes the XhrBackend
to attempt the JSON parse only if the response body is non-empty. Otherwise,
the body is left as null.

Previously, HttpClient used the overly clever test "body || null"
to determine when a body parameter was provided. This breaks when
the valid bodies '0' or 'false' are provided.
This change tests directly against 'undefined' to detect the presence
of the body parameter, and thus correctly allows falsy values through.

This is necessary to enable type-based optimizations with Closure.
Without explicity making these options the same named type, Closure
thinks they are different types and cannot disambiguate the `fromObject`
property.
With this commit `ngc` is used instead of `tsc-wrapped` for
collecting metadata and tsickle rewriting and `tsc-wrapped`
is removed from the repository.
`@angular/tsc-wrapped@5` is now deprecated and is no longer
used, updated, or maintained as part as of Angular 5.x.x.
`@angular/tsc-wrapped@4` is still maintained and required by
Angular 4.x.x and will be maintained as long as 4.x.x is in
LTS.

BREAKING CHANGE: the compiler option `enableLegacyTemplate` is now disabled by default as the `<template>` element has been deprecated since v4. Use `<ng-template>` instead. The option `enableLegacyTemplate` and the `<template>` element will both be removed in Angular v6.

Currently HttpClient sends requests for JSON data with the
XMLHttpRequest.responseType set to 'json'. With this flag, the browser
will attempt to parse the response as JSON, but will return 'null' on
any errors. If the JSON response contains an XSSI-prevention prefix,
this will cause the browser's parsing to fail, which is unrecoverable.
The only compelling reason to use the responseType 'json' is for
performance (especially if the browser offloads JSON parsing to a
separate thread). I'm not aware of any browser which does this currently,
nor of any plans to do so. JSON.parse and responseType 'json' both
end up using the same V8 code path in Chrome to implement the parse.
Thus, this change switches all JSON parsing in HttpClient to use
JSON.parse directly.
