The globbing is used in the following sections:
- `assetGroups` > `resources` > `files`/`versionedFiles`
- `assetGroups` > `resources` > `urls`
- `dataGroups` > `urls`
- `navigationUrls`
Query params are ignored for `files`/`versionedFiles` and
`navigationUrls`, but they are still taken into account for
`assetGroups`/`dataGroups` `urls`. To avoid a breaking change, `?` is
matched literally for these patterns.

Since `versionedFiles` behaves in the exact same way as `files`, there
is no reaason to have both. Users should use `files` instead.
This commit deprecates the property and prints a warning when coming
across an asset-group that uses it. It should be completely removed in
a future version.
Note, it has also been removed from the default `ngsw-config.json`
template in angular/devkit#754.

The ServiceWorker will redirect navigation requests that don't match any
`asset` or `data` group to the specified index file. The rules for a
request to be classified as a navigation request are as follows:
1. Its `mode` must be `navigation`.
2. It must accept a `text/html` response.
3. Its URL must match certain criteria (see below).
By default, a navigation request can have any URL except for:
1. URLs containing `__`.
2. URLs to files (i.e. containing a file extension in the last path
segment).
While these rules are fine in many cases, sometimes it is desirable to
configure different rules for the URLs of navigation requests (e.g.
ignore specific URLs and pass them through to the server).
This commit adds support for specifying an optional `navigationUrls`
list in `ngsw-config.json`, which contains URLs or simple globs
(currently only recognizing `!`, `*` and `**`).
Only requests whose URLs match any of the positive URLs/patterns and
none of the negative ones (i.e. URLs/patterns starting with `!`) will be
considered navigation requests (and handled accordingly by the SW).
(This is an alternative implementation to #23025.)
