This is a big change. @matsko also deserves much of the credit for the implementation.
Previously, `ComponentInstruction`s held all the state for async components.
Now, we introduce several subclasses for `Instruction` to describe each type of navigation.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Redirects now use the Link DSL syntax. Before:
```
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/foo', redirectTo: '/bar' },
{ path: '/bar', component: BarCmp }
])
```
After:
```
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/foo', redirectTo: ['Bar'] },
{ path: '/bar', component: BarCmp, name: 'Bar' }
])
```
BREAKING CHANGE:
This also introduces `useAsDefault` in the RouteConfig, which makes cases like lazy-loading
and encapsulating large routes with sub-routes easier.
Previously, you could use `redirectTo` like this to expand a URL like `/tab` to `/tab/posts`:
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/tab', redirectTo: '/tab/users' }
{ path: '/tab', component: TabsCmp, name: 'Tab' }
])
AppCmp { ... }
Now the recommended way to handle this is case is to use `useAsDefault` like so:
```
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/tab', component: TabsCmp, name: 'Tab' }
])
AppCmp { ... }
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/posts', component: PostsCmp, useAsDefault: true, name: 'Posts' },
{ path: '/users', component: UsersCmp, name: 'Users' }
])
TabsCmp { ... }
```
In the above example, you can write just `['/Tab']` and the route `Users` is automatically selected as a child route.

BREAKING CHANGE
Before
import * as p from 'angular2/profile';
import * as t from 'angular2/tools';
After
import * as p from 'angular2/instrumentation';
import * as t from 'angular2/platform/browser';
This is part of ongoing work to make core platform-independent.
BREAKING CHANGE
All private exports from 'angular2/src/core/facade/{lang,collection,exception_handler}' should be replaced with 'angular2/src/facade/{lang,collection,exception_handler}'.
BREAKING CHANGE
The ROUTE_DATA token has been removed and replaced with a type RouteData,
allowing a type injection like we do with RouteParams.
Before:
constructor(routeParams: RouteParams, @Inject(ROUTE_DATA) routeData) {
let id = routeParams.get('id');
let name = ROUTE_DATA.name;
}
After:
constructor(routeParams: RouteParams, routeData: RouteData) {
let id = routeParams.get('id');
let name = routeData.get('name');
}

This removes the routerBindings function as it is no longer necessary. ROUTER_BINDINGS will automatically pick the first bootstrapped component to satisfy ROUTER_PRIMARY_COMPONENT.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Before: bootstrap(MyComponent, [routerBindings(myComponent)]);
After: bootstrap(MyComponent, [ROUTER_BINDINGS]);
Closes#4643
BREAKING CHANGE:
It's unlikely that any apps were explicitly referencing `RootRouter`, but if they were they should
prefer to use the `routerBindings` helper or the `ROUTER_BINDINGS` const exported from `angular2/router`
With the coming bootstrapping changes, a single application (and thus Router) can have multiple root components. One of these needs to be identified as the "primary" component from which the Router will load its configuration. This is now done by providing a ROUTER_PRIMARY_COMPONENT binding to the primary component type.
This change moves many APIs to the angular2/core export.
This change also automatically adds FORM_BINDINGS in
the application root injector.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Many dependencies that were previously exported from specific
APIs are now exported from angular2/core. Affected exports, which
should now be included from angular2/core include:
angular2/forms
angular2/di
angular2/directives
angular2/change_detection
angular2/bootstrap (except for dart users)
angular2/render
angular2/metadata
angular2/debug
angular2/pipes
Closes#3977
"HTML5" is a bit confusing. We want to differentiate between persisting location state
to the URL path, and the URL hash. Hence `PathLocationStrategy`.
BREAKING CHANGE
`HTML5LocationStrategy` -> `PathLocationStrategy`
Closes#3776
Allows declaring a bundle's namespace in generated typings file,
which should correspond to the global object representing the module
inside its bundle.
BREAKING CHANGE
The router was previously exported as ng.router in the
angular.sfx.dev.js bundle, but now it is exported as ngRouter.

clang-format 1.0.17 substantially improves formatting for fat arrow functions
and array literal detection. It also fixes a number of minor formatting issues.
