The msie variable is a global variable used within the ng core which contains the
version number for the current Internet Explorer browser that is rendering the
application. Other modules outside of the ng core could make use of this variable
instead of having to rollout duplicate detection code. This code makes it easy to
reuse this simple property within the $sniffer service.
When we refactored , we broke the csp mode because the previous implementation
relied on the fact that it was ok to lazy initialize the .csp property, this
is not the case any more.
Besides, we need to know about csp mode during bootstrap and avoid injecting the
stylesheet when csp is active, so I refactored the code to fix both issues.
PR #4411 will follow up on this commit and add more improvements.

BREAKING CHANGE: triggering ngCsp directive via `ng:csp` attribute is not
supported any more. Please use data-ng-csp instead.
It's great that IE11 wants to be compatible enough that it doesn't want
to be special cased and treated differently.
However, as long as one has to have a different code path for IE than
for the other supported browsers, we still need to detect and special
case it. For instance, our URL parsing code still needs the same
workaround the we used for IE10. We still see the same Access denied /
TypeError exceptions when setting certain values. FYI, Angular doesn't
generally blindly test for IE – we also check the version number.
Thanks to modern.ie for the free IE11 test VM.

The stock Android browser doesn't support the current for-in body/style
detection for animations and transitions but we can manually fix this.
This is useful for PhoneGap web-views or traditional web-apps using the
stock browser.
window.SecurityPolicy.isActive() is now window.securityPolicy.isActive
since this is available only in Chrome Canary which has already been
updated, we can safely make this change without worrying about
backwards compatilibty.
Closes#1577
On IE9 the input event is not fired when backspace or delete key are pressed or when
cut is performed. This makes listening on the input event unreliable and therefore
it's better for us to just use keydown/change events instead.
Closes#879
