feat(ngMock): allow mock $controller service to set up controller bindings

Adds a new mock for the $controller service, in order to simplify testing using the
bindToController feature.

```js
var dictionaryOfControllerBindings = {
  data: [
    { id: 0, phone: '...', name: '...' },
    { id: 1, phone: '...', name: '...' },
  ]
};

// When the MyCtrl constructor is called, `this.data ~= dictionaryOfControllerBindings.data`
$controller(MyCtrl, myLocals, dictionaryOfControllerBindings);
```

Closes #9425
Closes #11239

+/**
+ * @ngdoc service
+ * @name $controller
+ * @description
+ * A decorator for {@link ng.$controller} with additional `bindings` parameter, useful when testing
+ * controllers of directives that use {@link $compile#-bindtocontroller- `bindToController`}.
+ *
+ *
+ * ## Example
+ *
+ * ```js
+ *
+ * // Directive definition ...
+ *
+ * myMod.directive('myDirective', {
+ *   controller: 'MyDirectiveController',
+ *   bindToController: {
+ *     name: '@'
+ *   }
+ * });
+ *
+ *
+ * // Controller definition ...
+ *
+ * myMod.controller('MyDirectiveController', ['log', function($log) {
+ *   $log.info(this.name);
+ * })];
+ *
+ *
+ * // In a test ...
+ *
+ * describe('myDirectiveController', function() {
+ *   it('should write the bound name to the log', inject(function($controller, $log) {
+ *     var ctrl = $controller('MyDirective', { /* no locals */ }, { name: 'Clark Kent' });
+ *     expect(ctrl.name).toEqual('Clark Kent');
+ *     expect($log.info.logs).toEqual(['Clark Kent']);
+ *   });
+ * });
+ *
+ * ```
+ *
+ * @param {Function|string} constructor If called with a function then it's considered to be the
+ *    controller constructor function. Otherwise it's considered to be a string which is used
+ *    to retrieve the controller constructor using the following steps:
+ *
+ *    * check if a controller with given name is registered via `$controllerProvider`
+ *    * check if evaluating the string on the current scope returns a constructor
+ *    * if $controllerProvider#allowGlobals, check `window[constructor]` on the global
+ *      `window` object (not recommended)
+ *
+ *    The string can use the `controller as property` syntax, where the controller instance is published
+ *    as the specified property on the `scope`; the `scope` must be injected into `locals` param for this
+ *    to work correctly.
+ *
+ * @param {Object} locals Injection locals for Controller.
+ * @param {Object=} bindings Properties to add to the controller before invoking the constructor. This is used
+ *                           to simulate the `bindToController` feature and simplify certain kinds of tests.
+ * @return {Object} Instance of given controller.
