Current behavior

When running the Angular i18n CLI tool with Typescript 2.1.x the resulting XLF file has an empty body.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<xliff version="1.2" xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:xliff:document:1.2">
  <file source-language="en" datatype="plaintext" original="ng2.template">
    <body>
    </body>
  </file>
</xliff>

Expected behavior

It should find one entry for Hello {{name}} which is the case for TypeScript 2.0.x

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<xliff version="1.2" xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:xliff:document:1.2">
  <file source-language="en" datatype="plaintext" original="ng2.template">
    <body>
      <trans-unit id="789f11377164fcf3a8f1d0408ee7dfed637cd9ae" datatype="html">
        <source>Hello <x id="INTERPOLATION"/></source>
        <target/>
      </trans-unit>
    </body>
  </file>
</xliff>

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions

Expected behavior with TypeScript 2.0.10: https://github.com/Hirse/quickstart
Current behavior with TypeScript 2.1.4: https://github.com/Hirse/quickstart/tree/ts-2.1

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

I want to use Angular i18n with the latest version of TypeScript.

Please tell us about your environment:

Win 10, git bash, npm

Angular version: 2.3.1

Browser: none
Language: TypeScript 2.1
Node (for AoT issues): node --version = v7.2.0
