chore: update to @types

[filipesilva]

This PR updates all examples to use @types/*. It also updates all chapters that mention typings to talk about @types/* instead.

The cli-quickstart example was removed from tests though, since the version of TS it uses is stuck in 1.8.x right now and would fail due to lack of typings.

This needs update on other places were we pull typescript 1.x (like systemjs for plunkers and perhaps more places)

@Foxandxss updated plunker generator and a few other places in the files provided in #2227.

Also searched for 1.8. and 1.9.0-dev throughout the project, don't seem to have found any more references to pre 2.0 TS.

We don't want to do this right now because we're still loading Angular 1 via a script tag.

This concrete line. Even when it is true that we don't want to do this right now (we would need to teach system.js deeply here), it sounds weird. "Hey, I am lazy, don't want to do this, so please be happy with this note".

I would reword it somehow.

I agreed that the prose needed work. I updated and force pushed and now you can't see what the passage was before I rewrote it. Here is my new version:

Why declare angular as any?

A strongly typed angular reference to Angular 1 would be great. But we can't import its UMD typings library, @types/angular, without also importing Angular 1 itself via import * as angular from 'angular'.

Angular 1 is currently loaded by a script tag in index.html and switching to an ES6 import at this time is not worth the considerable effort. Instead we declare angular as an untyped any to avoid typing errors.

If you two have no further objections AND my update survives Travis, I'll merge this in after lunch.

[Foxandxss]

Yes please. I need it to work on some other stuff tomorrow 👍

[filipesilva]

I agree with the edits, it looks better and addresses the problems that Jesus highlighted. Much better.
