In #39176 Alan noted that schematics is currently misplaced and should really be under the Angular Tools menu item.

In that issue, Alan also noted the "Angular Compiler" and "Angular CLI" are not refereced from here.
Since the issue was created "Angular Compiler" has already been moved under "Angular Tools".

Angular CLI is documented throughout the docs, and the "CLI Command Reference" under References is really just a reference
so it seems correctly located.

These changes remove most of the code and clean up our existing unit tests.

It turns out that we don't document anywhere how ngc works and what options we support.
