In the code base there are cases where there is, conceptually, a class
that is represented by a combination of an `interface`
(type declaration) and a `const` (value declaration).
For example:
```
export interface SomeClass {
count(a?: string): number;
}
export const: SomeClass = class {
someMethod(a: string = ''): number { ... }
};
```
These were being rendered as interfaces and also not
correctly showing the descriptions and default parameter
values.
In this commit such concepts are now rendered as classes.
The classes that are affected by this are:
* `DebugElement`
* `DebugNode`
* `Type`
* `EventEmitter`
* `TestBed`
Note that while decorators are also defined in this form
they have their own rendering type (`decorator`) and so
are not affecte by this.

Abstract directives cannot be part of a `@NgModule`, but the AIO dgeni
setup currently enforces this. This commit updates the logic so that
abstract directives are skipped.

Adds the ability to expose global symbols in the API docs via the `@globalApi` tag. Also supports optionally setting a namespace which will be added to the name automatically (e.g. `foo` will be renamed to `ng.foo`). Relevant APIs should also be exported through the `global.ts` file which will show up under `core/global`.

Injectable defs are not considered public API, so the property
that contains them should be prefixed with Angular's marker
for "private" ('ɵ') to discourage apps from relying on def
APIs directly.
This commit adds the prefix and shortens the name from
ngInjectableDef to "prov" (for "provider", since injector defs
are known as "inj"). This is because property names cannot
be minified by Uglify without turning on property mangling
(which most apps have turned off) and are thus size-sensitive.

`ng*Def` properties (such as `ngInjectorDef`) are not considered part of
the public API and should not appear in the API docs. This commit adds a
filter to remove these properties from the docs metadata.

This avoids warning such as the following ([example][1]):
```
warn: Invalid tags found -

Adds two new helper functions that can be used when unit testing Angular services
that depend upon upgraded AngularJS services, or vice versa.
The functions return a module (AngularJS or NgModule) that is configured to wire up
the Angular and AngularJS injectors without the need to actually bootstrap a full
hybrid application.
This makes it simpler and faster to unit test services.

There is an encoding issue with using delta `Δ`, where the browser will attempt to detect the file encoding if the character set is not explicitly declared on a `<script/>` tag, and Chrome will find the `Δ` character and decide it is window-1252 encoding, which misinterprets the `Δ` character to be some other character that is not a valid JS identifier character
So back to the frog eyes we go.

The `Δ` caused issue with other infrastructure, and we are temporarily
changing it to `ɵɵ`.
This commit also patches ts_api_guardian_test and AIO to understand `ɵɵ`.

Now, one can add an `@alias` tag to API docs, which tells dgeni that this
API element (usually a `const`) is really just an alias for some API element
defined elsewhere.
Dgeni will then look up this API element and copy over the properties from
the alias to the current doc.
For example, we would like to privately export an Enum from `@angular/core`
but then publicly export this from `@angular/common`:
**packages/core/private_exports.ts**
```ts
/**
* Description of this document.
*/
export enum ɵSomeEnum { ... }
```
**packages/common/public_api.ts**
```ts
import {ɵSomeEnum} from '@angular/core';
/**
* @alias core/ɵSomeEnum
*/
export const SomeEnum = ɵSomeEnum;
```
In the generated docs there will be a page for `common/SomeEnum`, which
will be rendered as an enum, rather than a const, showing the description
extracted from the `core/ɵSomeEnum`.
---
The implementation of this feature required some refactoring of the other
processing:
1. Previously `ɵ` prefixed exports were not even considered.
2. Due to 1. some processors needed to have guards added to ignore such
private exports (`addMetadataAliases` and `checkContentRules`).
3. The processing of package pages had to be reworked (and split) so that
it picked up the aliased export docs after their alias proeprties had
been copied.

Currently our plan is to skip the publish, docgen, and update steps for this package.
During RC, we'll determine if the breaking change is too difficult for users, in which case we might restore the package for another major.

This commit includes the following changes:
* CLI version information is read from the CLI package from which
we read the help files.
* CLI API pages now contain GH links
* line numbers are not shown in GH links, if the doc does not
have a truthy `startingLine` value. This allows us to remove
hard coded checks for `guide` pages
* content pages and CLI api docs no longer have a `startingLine`
* the hard-coded `packages` path segment has been removed from
the templates; instead we now only use the `realProjectRelativePath`.
* the `realProjectRelativePath` has been updated accordingly for API
and CLI API docs.

If the documentation contains a `@selectors` tag then the content of that
is used to describe the selectors of a directive.
Otherwise the selector string is split and each selector is listed as
a list item in an unordered list.
