What is the current behavior?

When using typescript version 3.9.3 the generated files in the tns-core-modules package look like:

Object.defineProperty(exports, “__esModule”, { value: true });
__exportStar(require(“@nativescript/core/application/application”), exports);

and for the older versions it looks like:

function __export(m) {
    for (var p in m) if (!exports.hasOwnProperty(p)) exports[p] = m[p];
}
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
__export(require("@nativescript/core/application/application"));

The problem is that if we register __exportStar function in the ts-helpers.ts file which is called inside the application module, but if we load the application through the tns-core-modules package like this:

import * as application from "tns-core-modules/application";

this will call the code in the beginning and there will be no __exportStar yet.

What is the new behavior?

To fix that I've added the compiled js content inside the tns-core-modules-package/application/ folder and ignored the application/application.ts in package's tsconfig.json file as I have the js file already. In that js file, I'm requiring the ts-hepers module which will register the needed __exportStar function.

Fixes #8590.
