router-active.ts is not necessary anymore

Angular2 beta 9 has a new feature that adds "router-link-active" class to the activated menu item without configuration.

Feature: angular1_router: Add ng-link-active class to active ng-link (11e8aa2), closes #6882

you may want to deprecate the file.

that's for angular1

@MurhafSousli You are correct.

router: router-link-active CSS class support (36eb9d3), closes #3209

We have "router-link-active" available in Angular 2 from 2.0.0-alpha.37 (2015-09-09)

I tried on my local machine and its working fine without router-active directive.

router link is fine. when you want the active class on the parent that's a problem

<li class="active">
  <a href="#"></a>
</li>

@gdi2290

Then we need router-active.ts

@gdi2290 why it is removed? how can I set class on parent now?
