TypeScript compiler will now build to ES2015 code and modules. Babili is used to minify ES2015
code, providing an initial optimization that we couldn't previously get just from Uglify. Uses
Babel to convert ES2015 to UMD/ES5 code, and Uglify to minimize the output.
Subclassing errors is problematic since Error returns a
new instance. All of the patching which we do than prevent
proper application of source maps.

I have deliberately not touched any of the symbol names as that would cause big merge collisions with Tobias's work.
All the renames are in .md, .json, and inline comments and jsdocs.

The change avoids the compiler CLI internal API from mismatching the following case as lazy loading
```
import { NonLazyLoadedModule } from './non-lazy-loaded/non-lazy-loaded.module';
export function getNonLazyLoadedModule() { return NonLazyLoadedModule; }
export const routes = [
{ path: '/some-path', loadChildren: getNonLazyLoadedModule }
];
```
The output of the check is later passed to `RouteDef.fromString()`, so, it makes sense to be only a string.
Fixesangular/angular-cli#3204
This change adds Compiler CLI support for any level of nesting for lazy routes.
For example `{app-root}/lazy-loaded-module-1/lazy-loaded-module-2/lazy-loaded-module-3`
Where `lazy-loaded-module-3` is lazy loaded from `lazy-loaded-module-2`,
and `lazy-loaded-module-2` is lazy loaded from module `lazy-loaded-module-1`,
and `lazy-loaded-module-1` is lazy loaded from `AppModule`
Fixesangular/angular-cli#3663
This change retracts support for metadata version 2.
The collector used to produce version 2 metadata was incomplete
and can cause the AOT compiler to fail to resolve symbols or
produce other spurious errors.
All libraries compiled and published with 2.3.0 ngc will need
to be recompiled and updated with this change.
When compiling libraries, this feature extracts the minimal information
from the directives/pipes/modules of the library into `.ngsummary.json` files,
so that applications that use this library only need to be recompiled
if one of the summary files change, but not on every change
of the libraries (e.g. one of the templates).
Only works if individual codegen for libraries is enabled,
see the `generateCodeForLibraries: false` option.
