docs(changelog): add changelog for 4.0.0-beta.3

While authoring this document we agreed to pushing off the 4.0.0 release by one week by adding one more RC week (compared to the original plan).
We announced that RC would take 1 month, but then I did the calendar math incorrectly.
This schedule change will give community more time to test the release before we call it done and report any potential regression or unforeseen issues.

+# Angular Release Schedule
+
+This document contains historic record of past Angular releases and future release schedule.

+## Schedule Caveats and Exceptions
+
+The dates listed here are approximate – last minute issues, team or community events, etc. can cause us to release a few days sooner or later.

+This page contains only planned and past unplanned releases.
+Due to serious regressions or other important reasons we reserve the right to release an unplanned patch or minor release.
+In such case, we'll update this document accordingly.
+
+The dates past March 2017 are just a guidance and might be adjusted slightly if necessary.

+## Tentative Schedule After March 2017
+
+ Date                   | Stable Release | Compatibility`*`
+ ---------------------- | -------------- | ----------------
+ September/October 2017 | 5.0.0          | ^4.0.0
+ March 2018             | 6.0.0          | ^5.0.0
+ September/October 2018 | 7.0.0          | ^6.0.0
+
+ `*` The goal of the backwards compatibility promise, is to ensure that changes in the core framework and tooling don't break the existing ecosystem of components and applications and don't put undue upgrade/migration burden on Angular application and component authors.
+
+
+## More Info & Resources
+
+In [September 2016 we announced](http://angularjs.blogspot.com/2016/10/versioning-and-releasing-angular.html) that Angular is fully adopting [semantic versioning](http://semver.org/) and that we'll be releasing patch versions on a weekly basis (~50 per year), minor versions monthly for 3 months following a major version release, and every 6 months we'll release a major version that will be backwards compatible with the previous release for most developers, but might remove APIs that have been deprecated two major versions ago (6 or more months ago).
+
+In [December 2016 we clarified this message](http://angularjs.blogspot.com/2016/12/ok-let-me-explain-its-going-to-be.html), and provided additional details about the plans to release Angular 4.0.0 in March 2017.
+This document contains updates to the schedule that happened since then.

+ * ### Fine tune control
+ *
+ * You can control the component creation process by using the following optional attributes:

+ * * `ngOutletContent`: Optional list of projectable nodes to insert into the content
+ * section of the component, if exists. ({@link NgContent}).
+ *
+ *
+ * ### Syntax
+ *
+ * Simple
+ * ```
+ * <ng-container *ngComponentOutlet="componentTypeExpression"></ng-container>

 /**
- * Removes or recreates a portion of the DOM tree based on an {expression}.
+ * Conditionally includes a template based on the value of an `expression`.
  *
- * If the expression assigned to `ngIf` evaluates to a falsy value then the element
- * is removed from the DOM, otherwise a clone of the element is reinserted into the DOM.
+ * `ngIf` evaluates the `expression` and then renders the `then` or `else` template in its place
+ * when expression is truthy or falsy respectively. Typically the:
+ *  - `then` template is the inline template of `ngIf` unless bound to a different value.
+ *  - `else` template is blank unless it is bound.
  *
- * ### Example ([live demo](http://plnkr.co/edit/fe0kgemFBtmQOY31b4tw?p=preview)):
+ * # Most common usage
+ *
+ * The most common usage of the `ngIf` directive is to conditionally show the inline template as
+ * seen in this example:
+ * {@example common/ngIf/ts/module.ts region='NgIfSimple'}
+ *
+ * # Showing an alternative template using `else`
+ *
+ * If it is necessary to display a template when the `expression` is falsy use the `else` template
+ * binding as shown. Note that the `else` binding points to a `<template>` labeled `#elseBlock`.
+ * The template can be defined anywhere in the component view but is typically placed right after
+ * `ngIf` for readability.
+ *
+ * {@example common/ngIf/ts/module.ts region='NgIfElse'}
+ *
+ * # Using non-inlined `then` template
+ *
+ * Usually the `then` template is the inlined template of the `ngIf`, but it can be changed using
+ * a binding (just like `else`). Because `then` and `else` are bindings, the template references can
+ * change at runtime as shown in this example.
+ *
+ * {@example common/ngIf/ts/module.ts region='NgIfThenElse'}
+ *
+ * # Storing conditional result in a variable
+ *
+ * A common pattern is that we need to show a set of properties from the same object. If the
+ * object is undefined, then we have to use the safe-traversal-operator `?.` to guard against
+ * dereferencing a `null` value. This is especially the case when waiting on async data such as
+ * when using the `async` pipe as shown in folowing example:
  *
  * ```
- * <div *ngIf="errorCount > 0" class="error">
- *   <!-- Error message displayed when the errorCount property in the current context is greater
- * than 0. -->
- *   {{errorCount}} errors detected
- * </div>
+ * Hello {{ (userStream|async)?.last }}, {{ (userStream|async)?.first }}!
  * ```
  *
+ * There are several inefficiencies in the above example:
+ *  - We create multiple subscriptions on `userStream`. One for each `async` pipe, or two in the
+ *    example above.
+ *  - We cannot display an alternative screen while waiting for the data to arrive asynchronously.
+ *  - We have to use the safe-traversal-operator `?.` to access properties, which is cumbersome.
+ *  - We have to place the `async` pipe in parenthesis.
+ *
+ * A better way to do this is to use `ngIf` and store the result of the condition in a local
+ * variable as shown in the the example below:
+ *
+ * {@example common/ngIf/ts/module.ts region='NgIfLet'}
+ *
+ * Notice that:
+ *  - We use only one `async` pipe and hence only one subscription gets created.
+ *  - `ngIf` stores the result of the `userStream|async` in the local variable `user`.
+ *  - The local `user` can then be bound repeatedly in a more efficient way.
+ *  - No need to use the safe-traversal-operator `?.` to access properties as `ngIf` will only
+ *    display the data if `userStream` returns a value.
+ *  - We can display an alternative template while waiting for the data.
+ *
  * ### Syntax
  *
+ * Simple form:
  * - `<div *ngIf="condition">...</div>`
  * - `<div template="ngIf condition">...</div>`
  * - `<template [ngIf]="condition"><div>...</div></template>`
  *
+ * Form with an else block:
+ * ```
+ * <div *ngIf="condition; else elseBlock">...</div>
+ * <template #elseBlock>...</template>
+ * ```
+ *
+ * Form with a `then` and `else` block:
+ * ```
+ * <div *ngIf="condition; then thenBlock else elseBlock"></div>
+ * <template #thenBlock>...</template>
+ * <template #elseBlock>...</template>
+ * ```
+ *
+ * Form with storing the value locally:
+ * ```
+ * <div *ngIf="condition; else elseBlock; let value">{{value}}</div>
+ * <template #elseBlock>...</template>
+ * ```
+ *
