inject inlinePrebootCode in HEAD? or immediately after appRoot

See original GitHub issue

I’m submitting a …

bug report

Which parts of preboot are affected by this issue?

server side
inline

According to the README:

You then inject inlinePrebootCode into the HEAD section of your server-side template.

But that doesn’t work, at least, in the following cases:

With Angular 2x auto bootstrap (using ng-app or data-ng-app attr on your app root), this inline script seems to only work at the very end of the <body> (presumably because Angular waits for DOM ready event before executing)
- in other words, the waitUntilReady must not (even with setTimeout of 1) be getting executed fast enough
With Angular 4x, where Angular’s bootstrapModule code can happen before DOM ready event, then this inline script only works when immediately after the app root.

So I’m proposing, assuming someone can corroborate, that the guidance be changed to insert the “inlinePrebootCode” immediately after the app root element (so it works in most (all?) cases)
