This commit moves the delegated constructor detection to a helper
function and also adds more test coverage.
The original code for this came from https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/24156
thanks to @ts2do.

In ReflectionCapabilities, when checking for own parameters of a type, inherit the types properly for classes that do have a constructor, but the constructor takes no declared parameters and just delegates to super(...arguments). This removes the need to declare trivial constructors in such classes to make them work properly in JIT mode. Without this, DI fails and injectables are undefined.

Closure Compiler in some configurations complains about duplicate
imports. This change replaces the export-with-import with an export of
the imported symbol.

Structural directives can now specify a type guard that describes
what types can be inferred for an input expression inside the
directive's template.
NgIf was modified to declare an input guard on ngIf.
After this change, `fullTemplateTypeCheck` will infer that
usage of `ngIf` expression inside it's template is truthy.
For example, if a component has a property `person?: Person`
and a template of `<div *ngIf="person"> {{person.name}} </div>`
the compiler will no longer report that `person` might be null or
undefined.
The template compiler will generate code similar to,
```
if (NgIf.ngIfTypeGuard(instance.person)) {
instance.person.name
}
```
to validate the template's use of the interpolation expression.
Calling the type guard in this fashion allows TypeScript to infer
that `person` is non-null.

BREAKING CHANGE
It is no longer possible to declare classes in this format.
```
Component({...}).
Class({
constructor: function() {...}
})
```
This format would only work with JIT and with ES5. This mode doesn’t
allow build tools like Webpack to process and optimize the code, which
results in prohibitively large bundles. We are removing this API
because we are trying to ensure that everyone is on the fast path by
default, and it is not possible to get on the fast path using the ES5
DSL. The replacement is to use TypeScript and `@Decorator` format.
```
@Component({...})
class {
constructor() {...}
}
```
`ngc` would look for flat module resources relative to the flat module index.
`ngc` now looks for flat module resources relative to the `.d.ts` file that declarates
the component.
