feat(@angular/cli): add platform: server

[FrozenPandaz]

This adds the platform field to the cli config.

"browser" is by default and "server" is also allowed.

passing server will generate a bundle meant for the server via ng build

[filipesilva]

Can you add a test that confirms this functionality?

[cyrilletuzi]

From what I understand from the commits, polyfills have been moved from common config to browser only config.

But server rendering needs the polyfills too. And for zone.js, it even needs a different import :
import 'zone.js/dist/zone-node';

1 nit which will help with documentation, and it's all good.

[hansl]

Should this be an enum instead of string?

[DavidRouyer]

There is no "enum" type. More like:
"platform": {
"type": "string",
"enum": ["browser", "server"],
"description": "The destination platform of app."
}

[hansl]

We should disable ng serve for server apps with this PR and re-enable it when we support it.

@FrozenPandaz Thanks so much for taking this on! Any idea on when you will get a chance to have a look at this again? I'm eagerly awaiting this feature ;)
