* By default TypeScript truncates the types when calling `typeToString`. Since we don't want to truncate the types automatically, we need to work around: angular/dgeni-packages#276 until there is a possibility to change this using the `tsHost`.

This fix also includes a refactoring that allows the developer to
override the default behaviour of this rendering by providing their
own `Host` implementation.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The way that some types are rendered has changed. It is believed that
this is better but you may want to check in case your expectation is
different.
* `let myVar = 42` used to render the type as `42` but
will now render as `number`.
* type parameters of the following call signature:
```
<T, U extends Findable<T>>(param: T) : U
```
will be rendered as `<T, U>` whereas before it might be have been
rendered as `<T, U extends Findable<T>>`.
* structural types are now rendered as a single line:
```
{ foo: string; }
```
rather than
```
{
foo: string;
}
```
* Results of complex calls might become `any` whereas, previously,
the call itself was rendered. For example:
```
Object.assign(super.someProp, {
bar: 'baz'
});
```
Fixes angular#276

In some API doc type classes, the TypeScript package just uses the plain
typeToStringmethod. By default this method truncates long types and therefore causes unexpected results.We should allow users to overwrite the
typeToStringlogic using the recently introducedHostclass. Probably in the future it might be worth passingNoTruncationby default.https://github.com/angular/dgeni-packages/blob/master/typescript/src/api-doc-types/ConstExportDoc.ts#L22
