Protractor `elementExplorer` debugger and element explorer cannot be used for Node.js 8+ since it relied on `_debugger` module.
In protractor version 5, this resulted in the below error:
```

but in protractor version 7, this logic was removed.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Protractor builder elementExplorer option has been removed. This was not compatable with the Node.Js versions that the Angular CLI supports. See: https://github.com/angular/protractor/blob/master/docs/debugging.md#enabled-control-flow for an alternative debugging methods.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Removed deprecated `typescriptMismatch` warning option. Users will be migrated off this option automatically. Users wishing to disable TypeScript version checks should use the Angular compiler option `disableTypeScriptVersionCheck`, see https://angular.io/guide/angular-compiler-options#disabletypescriptversioncheck for more information.
Contains fixes related to the symlink behaviour inside of bazel. Without it, webpack needs to be configured to be aware of symlinks and preserve the paths.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The following deprecated devkit builders options have been removed:
- `skipAppShell:` This has no effect
- `evalSourceMap`: This done to improve performance in older versions of the CLI and is no longer needed
- `vendorSourceMap`: Use `sourceMap.vendor` instead
- `profile`: Use `NG_BUILD_PROFILING` environment variable instead
BREAKING CHANGE
Deprecated browser builder option `es5BrowserSupport` has been removed. The inclusion for ES5 polyfills will be determined from the browsers listed in the browserslist configuration.
Without this change, module names will be computed with incorrect paths containing duplicate path fragments (e.g. `@angular-devkit/architect/testing/testing/test-logger`).
This PR changes ts_json_schema to not create a ts_library rule for the json schema, and instead let consuming ts_libraries use and compile the resulting .ts files themselves.
This is needed in order to maintain the module_name of the consuming libraries on the .ts files resulting from json compilation.
Depending on CommonJS modules is know to cause optimization bailouts. With this change when running a browser build and scripts optimization is enabled we display a warning.
To suppress the warning for a particular package, users can use the `allowedCommonJsDepedencies` builder options.
Example:
```
"build": {
"builder": "@angular-devkit/build-angular:browser",
"options": {
...
"allowedCommonJsDepedencies": ["bootstrap"]
},
}
```
