Note that the duplication in tsconfig.json files will be fixed in a followup CL now that we have tsconfig inheritance
BREAKING CHANGE: Angular 4 will support only TypeScript 2.1, so we no longer provide backwards compatibility to TS 1.8.
Subclassing errors is problematic since Error returns a
new instance. All of the patching which we do than prevent
proper application of source maps.

Previously, the `previousValue` and `currentValue` arguments passed to the
`SimpleChange` constructor were swapped for interpolation bindings.
This commit also refactors the code, so that interpolation bindings and property
bindings share the same implementation, and fixes some broken tests (that hide
failures by allowing the `$exceptionHandler` to swallow thrown exceptions).

`ComponentFactory`s can now be created from a `ViewDefinitionFactory` via
`RefFactory.createComponentFactory`.
This commit also:
- splits `Services` into `Refs` and `RootData`
- changes `ViewState` into a bitmask
- implements `ViewContainerRef.move`

Note, this affects the underlying class and should not affect usage.
DEPRECATION:
- the `NgFor` class is now deprecated. Use `NgForOf<T>` instead.
IMPORTANT: Only the `NgFor` class is deprecated, not the `ngFor`
directive. The `*ngFor` and related directives are unaffected by
this change as references to the `NgFor` class generated from
templates will be automatically converted to references to
`NgForOf<T>` without requiring any template modifications.
- `TrackByFn` is now deprecated. Use `TrackByFunction<T>` instead.
Migration:
- Replace direct references to the `NgFor` class to `NgForOf<any>`.
- Replace references to `TrackByFn` to `TrackByFunction<any>`.
BREAKING CHANGE:
A definition of `Iterable<T>` is now required to correctly compile
Angular applications. Support for `Iterable<T>` is not required at
runtime but a type definition `Iterable<T>` must be available.
`NgFor`, and now `NgForOf<T>`, already supports `Iterable<T>` at
runtime. With this change the type definition is updated to reflect
this support.
Migration:
- add "es2015.iterable.ts" to your tsconfig.json "libs" fields.

Correctly wire up hierarchical injectors for downgraded components in
`upgrade/static`: Downgraded components inherit the injector of the first
downgraded component up the DOM tree.
This is similar to (part of) d91a86a, but for `upgrade/static`.
POSSIBLE BREAKING CHANGE:
In order to enable more control over the wiring of downgraded components and
their content (which eventually allows better control over features like
injector setup and content projection), it was necessary to change the
implementation of the directives generated for downgraed components.
The directives are now terminal and manually take care of projecting and
compiling their contents in the post-linking function. This is similar to how
the dynamic version of `upgrade` does it.
This is not expected to affect apps, since the relative order of individual
operations is preserved. Still, it is difficult to predict how every possible
usecase may be affected.
