Update Angular CLI

Angular CLI common issues

There are constant updates for the official Angular framework dependencies. These dependencies are directly related with the Angular CLI package.

For Linux users is as easy as updating the global package:

$ npm unistall -g @angular/cli
$ npm install -g @angular/cli

For Windows users the process is only a bit harder. Open the devonfw bundled console and do as follows:

$ cd [devonfw_dist_folder]
