Renderer.createElement - possibly incorrect call signature

[terrawheat]

Current behavior
Before the release candidate the following compiled without issue:

export class Foo {
  constructor(private renderer: Renderer) {
    const tag = 'p';
    const element = /* some kind of HTMLElement */;
    let el = this.renderer.createElement(element, tag);
  }
}

Since the release candidate this now throws a compile error:

error TS2346: Supplied parameters do not match any signature of call target.

The third parameter DebugInfo I believe should be an optional parameter.

Expected/desired behavior
Be able to compile with just element and tag provided.

the "debugInfo:RendererDebugInfo" should be optional at least..

createElement(parentElement: any, name: string, debugInfo: RenderDebugInfo) : any

[scttcper]

Piggybacking on this issue with Renderer.invokeElementMethod

invokeElementMethod(renderElement: any, methodName: string, args: any[]);

args should be optional.

Was going to PR this, however it involves a change to a public API, and there's a big scary warning at the top of that file.

@terrawheat you can change the public API, but it's up to ng2 team to approve it or not, so do it with no worries.

[terrawheat]

@ericmartinezr ah thanks for the info. I've reopened the PR now then :)
