Support for Angular 5 i18n APIs

Research if the new i18n tooling can replace the nativescript-intl package.

We really need this! Any updates??

I followed the approach suggested by @hettiger on this issue and the solution works. However, it can cause lots of problems, as he mentioned, whenever there's an update on that. I was wondering if someone has another idea in mind.

I tried replacing the ES6 import statement by the old require like require localeFr = require('@angular/common/locales/fr'); but it only works for iOS for some reason.
