DEPRECATION:
platform-webworker has been around since the initial release of Angular
version 2. It began as an experiment to leverage Angular's rendering
architecture and try something different: to run an entire web application
in a web worker.
We've learned a lot from this experiment, and have come to the conclusion
that pushing entire applications to run in a web worker is not a recipe for
success for most applications. This is due to a number of unresolved issues,
including:
* Poor or non-existent support for web worker APIs in web crawlers/indexers.
* Poor support in build and bundling tooling.
As a result, as of Angular version 8, we are deprecating the
`platform-webworker` APIs in Angular. This consists of both NPM packages,
`@angular/platform-webworker` and `@angular/platform-webworker-dynamic`.
Going forward, we will focus our efforts related to web workers around their
primary use case of offloading CPU-intensive but not critical work.

This change enables dts bundling for the following packages and their secondary entry points:
- @angular/animations
- @angular/elements
- @angular/http
- @angular/platform-browser
- @angular/platform-browser-dynamic
- @angular/platform-server
- @angular/platform-webworker
- @angular/platform-webworker-dynamic
- @angular/servce-worker
Dts bundling happens in `ng_module` bazel definition, hence packages such as `@angular/compiler`, `@angular/compiler-cli` and `@angular/langauge service` cannot be flattened as they use `ts_library`.
`@angular/core`, `@angular/common`, `@angular/upgrade` and `@angular/forms` will be done seperatly as it requires some changes either to their source or specs.

Since we build and publish the individual packages
using Bazel and `build.sh` has been removed, we can
safely remove the `rollup.config.js` files which are no
longer needed because the `ng_package` bazel rule
automatically handles the rollup settings and globals.

These tests were previously not running on CI so they have always been broken,
or got broken just recently :-(.
test(ivy): mark failing test targets with fixme-ivy-jit and fixme-ivy-local tags
PR Close#26735
Two new CircleCI environments are created: test_ivy_jit and test_ivy_aot.
Both run a subset of the tests that have been marked with Bazel tags as
being appropriate for that environment.
Once all the tests pass, builds are published to the *-builds repo both
for the legacy View Engine compiled code as well as for ivy-jit and ivy-aot.

This flag is picked up by webpack v4 and used for more agressive optimizations.
Our code is already side-effect free, because that's what we needed for build-optimizer to work.

We now create npm packages to cover all the public api assertions in tools/public_api_guard.
We no longer depend on ts-api-guardian from npm - it is now stale since the repository was archived.
There is no longer a gulp task to enforce or accept the public API, this is in CircleCI as part of running all bazel test targets.

BREAKING CHANGE: after this change, npm and yarn will issue incompatible peerDependencies warning
We don't expect this to actually break an application, but the application/library package.json
will need to be updated to provide tslib 1.9.0 or higher.

"ng update" supports having multiple packages as part of a group which should be updated together, meaning that e.g. calling "ng update @angular/core" would be equivalent to updating all packages of the group (that are part of the package.json already).
In order to support the grouping feature, the package.json of the version the user is updating to needs to include an "ng-update" key that points to this metadata.
The entire specification for the update workflow can be found here: 2e8b12a4ef/docs/specifications/update.md

This helps ensure we use the same tsconfig.json file for all compilations.
Next steps are to make it the same tsconfig.json file used by the editor

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.

* Remove now unnecessary portions of build.

After this, neither @angular/compiler nor @angular/comnpiler-cli depend
on @angular/core.
This add a duplication of some interfaces and enums which is stored
in @angular/compiler/src/core.ts
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `@angular/platform-server` now additionally depends on
`@angular/platform-browser-dynamic` as a peer dependency.

This change allows ReflectiveInjector to be tree shaken resulting
in not needed Reflect polyfil and smaller bundles.
Code savings for HelloWorld using Closure:
Reflective: bundle.js: 105,864(34,190 gzip)
Static: bundle.js: 154,889(33,555 gzip)
645( 2%)
BREAKING CHANGE:
`platformXXXX()` no longer accepts providers which depend on reflection.
Specifically the method signature when from `Provider[]` to
`StaticProvider[]`.
Example:
Before:
```
[
MyClass,
{provide: ClassA, useClass: SubClassA}
]
```
After:
```
[
{provide: MyClass, deps: [Dep1,...]},
{provide: ClassA, useClass: SubClassA, deps: [Dep1,...]}
]
```
NOTE: This only applies to platform creation and providers for the JIT
compiler. It does not apply to `@Compotent` or `@NgModule` provides
declarations.
Benchpress note: Previously Benchpress also supported reflective
provides, which now require static providers.
DEPRECATION:
- `ReflectiveInjector` is now deprecated as it will be remove. Use
`Injector.create` as a replacement.
