fix($routeProvider): do not deep-copy route definition objects

Deep-copying route definition objects can break specific custom implementations of `$sce` (used to
trust a `templateUrl` as RESOURCE_URL). The purpose of copying route definition objects was to guard
against the user's modifying the route definition object after route registration, while still
capturing inherited properties.
As suggested by @IgorMinar in #14699 (comment),
we can achieve both _and_ support custom `$sce` implementations, by shallow-copying instead.

This is an alternative implementation for #14699, which avoids the breaking change.

Fixes #14478
Closes #14699

Closes #14750
