Introduces `ref-` to give a name to an element or a directive (also works for `<template>` elements), and `let-` to introduce an input variable for a `<template>` element.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `#...` now always means `ref-`.
- `<template #abc>` now defines a reference to the TemplateRef, instead of an input variable used inside of the template.
- `#...` inside of a *ngIf, … directives is deprecated.
Use `let …` instead.
- `var-...` is deprecated. Replace with `let-...` for `<template>` elements and `ref-` for non `<template>` elements.

Update the Angular 2 transformer to recognize
`package:angular2/platform/browser.dart` as the library which exports
the `bootstrap` function.
Update playground, examples, benchmarks, & tests to import bootstrap from
platform/browser.

BREAKING CHANGE
From the app thread, in both TypeScript and Dart, you bootstrap the app
using `application` instead of `asyncApplication`.
Before:
```TypeScript
platform([WORKER_APP_PLATFORM])
.asyncApplication(setupWebWorker, optionalProviders?)
.then((ref) => ref.bootstrap(RootComponent));
```
Now:
```TypeScript
platform([WORKER_APP_PLATFORM])
.application([WORKER_APP_APPLICATION])
.bootstrap(RootComponent);
```

Fixed a few little things. I'll probably have more changes to make later, once I understand everything better.
Also added a missing syntax line.
