docs(angular.element): `css()` method does not retrieve computed styles

The jQuery css() getter functionality utilises getComputedStyle() whereas
jqLite only retrieves what is declared inline on an element.

fix($browser): don’t use history api when only the hash changes

IE10/11 have the following problem: When changing the url hash
via `history.pushState()` and then reverting the hash via direct
changes to `location.href` (or via a link) does not fire a
`hashchange` nor `popstate` event.

This commit changes the default behavior as follows:
Uses `location.href`/`location.replace` if the new url differs from
the previous url only in the hash fragment or the browser
does not support history API.
Use `history.pushState`/ `history.replaceState` otherwise.

fix($compile): remove comment nodes from templates before asserting single root node

The compiler will no longer throw if a directive template contains comment nodes in addition to a
single root node. If a template contains less than 2 nodes, the nodes are unaltered.

BREAKING CHANGE:

If a template contains directives within comment nodes, and there is more than a single node in the
template, those comment nodes are removed. The impact of this breaking change is expected to be
quite low.

fix($browser): don’t use history api when only the hash changes

Fixes a failing test on IE9 caused as a side effect
of 404b95fe30a1bcd1313adafbd0018578d5b21d3d being merged
before 0656484d3e709c5162570b0dd6473b0b6140e5b2.

The test should have been independent on the browser running it
and it is now.

docs(guide/introduction): fix grammar style

Changed "you would currently have to write" to "you would otherwise have to write".

Seems to make more sense this way since "currently" presupposes that someone new
to Angular would be coming from a different paradigm, which they may or may not be.
