1. feat(core): add ability to set inputs on ComponentRef …

   This change adds the setInput method to the ComponentRef.
   
   Previously users had to call `componentRef.instance['inputName']`
   to change inputs of a dynamically created component. This had
   several problems:
   
   *  OnPush components were not marked for check and thus very
   difficult to test;
   * input aliasing was not take into account - a property name
   on a component could have been different from the actual input
   name so setting input properties was fragile;
   * manually setting input propertie would NOT trigger the
   `NgOnChanges` lifecycle hook.
   
   This modifications unifies `@Input` accross dynamically created
   components and the ones referenced in templates. This also opens
   doors to other changes: as an example router could use this new
   method to set `@Input`s from router params.
   
   Closes angular#12313
   Closes angular#22567
