Fix how the compiler checks for recursive components by also considering
component descendants. Previously, it only checked if the current
component was evaluated previously. This failed in certain cases of
mutually recursive components, causing `createAsync` in tests to not
resolve.
closes [7084](https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/7084)
After splitting the facades into multiple modules,
enabling prod mode for code had no effect for the compiler.
Also in a change between RC1 and RC2 we created the `CompilerConfig`
via a provider with `useValue` and not via a `useFactory`, which reads
the prod mode too early.

This lets users continue using runtime-sideeffect Decorators if they choose,
only down-leveling the marked ones to Annotations.
Also remove the "skipTemplateCodegen" option, which is no longer needed
since Angular compiles with tsc-wrapped rather than ngc. The former doesn't
include any codegen.
`<ng-container>` is a logical container that can be used to group nodes but is not rendered in the DOM tree as a node.
`<ng-container>` is rendered as an HTML comment.
