Each node now has two index: nodeIndex and checkIndex.
nodeIndex is the index in both the view definition and the view data.
checkIndex is the index in in the update function (update directives and update
renderer).
While nodeIndex and checkIndex have the same value for now, having both of them
will allow changing the structure of view definition after compilation (ie for
runtime translations).
This is needed as:
- closure declares globals itself for minified names, which sometimes clobber our `ng` global
- we can't declare a closure extern as the namespace `ng` is already used within Google for typings for angularJS (via `goog.provide('ng....')`).
The new expression lowering lowers everything after `useValue` / `useFactory`
into a separate exported variable. If the value was a `forwardRef`, this
was passed to the runtime and resulted in errors.
This change unwraps `forwardRef`s during runtime again.
Note: we can’t unwrap the `forwardRef` into an exported variable
during compile time, as this would defeat the purpose of the
`forwardRef` in referring to something that can’t be referred to
at this position.
- optimize the way node flags are propagated in `viewDef()`,
- fix `elementDef()` signature to make `namespaceAndName` nullable,
- move render parent computation with the parent computation

The private classes `ApplicationRef_`, `PlatformRef_`, `JSONPConnection_`, `JSONPBackend_`, `ClientMessageBrokerFactory_`, `ServiceMessageBroker_`, `ClientMessageBroker_` and `ServiceMessageBrokerFactory_` have been removed and merged into their public equivalents.
The size of the minified umd bundles have been slightly decreased:

Add testability hook to downgraded component so that protractor can wait for asynchronous call to complete.
Add unregisterApplication() and unregisterAllApplications() to testability registry for cleaning up testability and unit test.
BREAKING CHANGE: `NgFor` has been removed as it was deprecated since v4. Use `NgForOf` instead. This does not impact the use of`*ngFor` in your templates.
