Filipe Silva 1f3738b19f feat(@angular/cli): add circular dependency detection
Circular dependencies, like `app.module.ts` importing `app.component.ts` which in turn imports `app.module.ts`, now display a warning during builds:

WARNING in Circular dependency detected:

```

It is important to detect and eliminate circular dependencies because leaving them in might lead to `Maximum call stack size exceeded` errors, or imports being `undefined` at runtime.

To remove these warnings from your project you can factor out the circular dependency into a separate module.

For instance, if module A imports `foo` from module B, and module B imports `bar` from module A, it is enough to extract `foo` into module C.

You can turn off these warnings by running ng set apps.0.hideCircularDependencyWarnings=true. This will add the "hideCircularDependencyWarnings": true value to your .angular-cli.json and disable the warnings.
