The goal is to make implementing a renderer straight forward.
BREAKING_CHANGE:
- Renderer interface was redone / simplified.
- `DirectDomRenderer` was replaced by `DomRenderer`.
- `DirectDomRenderer.setImperativeComponentRootNodes` is replaced
by the following 2 steps:
1. `ViewManager.getComponentView(elementRef) -> ViewRef`
2. `DomRenderer.setComponentViewRootNodes(viewRef, rootNodes)`
- all `@View` annotations need to have a template, but the template
may be empty. Previously views that had a `renderer` property did
not have to have a `template`.
- `dynamicComponentLoader.loadIntoNewLocation` does no more allow
to pass an element, but requires a css selector.
Special syntax: `:document` can be used as prefix to search globally
on the document instead of in the provided parent view.

BREAKING_CHANGE:
- The special type of `Viewport` directives is removed
in favor of a more general `Decorator` directive
- `ViewContainerRef` now no more has a default `ProtoViewRef`
but requires an explicit one when creating views.
Closes#1536
BREAKING CHANGES:
- `NgElement` merged into `ElementRef`
- `Compiler.compile…` returns `ProtoViewRef`
- `ViewContainer` uses `ProtoViewRef`s and `ViewRef`s.
- `ViewRef`/`ProtoViewRef` in renderer were renamed to
`RenderViewRef`/`RenderProtoViewRef`.

AppViewManager is the single entry point to changing the view hierarchy.
It is split between the manager itself which does coordination and
helper methods, so both are easily testable in isolation.
Also, ViewContainer is now only a pure reference to a bound element
with the previous functionality but does not contain the list of views
any more.
Part of #1477
Major changes:
- `compiler.compileRoot(el, type)`
-> `compiler.compileInHost(type) + viewHydrator.hydrateHostViewInPlace(el, view)`
- move all `hydrate`/`dehydrate` methods out of `View` and `ViewContainer` into
a standalone class `view_hydrator` as private methods and provide new public
methods dedicated to the individual use cases.
Note: This PR does not change the current functionality, only moves it
into different places.
See design discussion in #1351, in preparation for imperative views.
Add two factory static functions to Injector: resolveAndCreate and
fromResolvedBindings.
We want to avoid resolution and flattening every time we create a new
injector. This commit allows the user to cache resolved bindings and
reuse them.
chore(doc-gen): capture docs for modules from comments
Closes#1258
docs(*): add module description jsdoc tags
docs(*): add @public tag to public modules
chore(doc-gen): fix overview-dump template
The template was referencing an invalid property
chore(doc-gen): use `@exportedAs` and `@public` rather than `@publicModule`
This commit refactors how we describe components that are re-exported in another
module. For example the "public" modules like `angular/angular` and `angular/annotations`
are public but they only re-export components from "private" modules.
Previously, you must apply the `@publicModule` tag to a component that was to be
re-exported. Applying this tag caused the destination module to become public.
Now, you specify that a module is public by applying the `@public` tag and then
you can "re-export" components to other modules by applying the `@exportedAs`
giving the name of the module from which the component will be re-exported.
tag. This tag can be used multiple times on a single component, allowing the
component to be exported on multiple modules.
docs(*): rename `@publicModule` to `@exportedAs`
The `@publicModule` dgeni tag has been replaced by the `@exportedAs`
dgeni tag on components that are to be re-exported on another module.

Needed to change Renderer.mergeChildComponentProtoViews to not create
new ProtoViews to be able to deal with cyclic references.
This commit is part of using the new render layer in Angular.
