perf(compile): add class 'ng-scope' before cloning and other micro-op…

…timizations

Add class ng-scope to dom nodes during directive compile rather than link.
Optimize handling of nodeLists.
This results in a savings of about 130ms during the startup of a product within Google.

Closes angular#5471
