Description

Followup to #14553 (comment)

Running ng update @angular/core --from 7 --to 8 --migrate-only on 8.0.0 does not migrate.
But going back to rc.0 will prompt the migration again.

            ------ Static Query Migration ------
            With Angular version 8, developers need to
            explicitly specify the timing of ViewChild and
            ContentChild queries. Read more about this here:
