Minification is stripping the basic IIFE wrapper from the cached templates #161
Description
My issue is with the moduleSystem option, value 'IIFE'.
When minifying a build containing concatenated cached templates provided by this plugin, using UglifyJS, the functional wrapper is removed from the prepared templates.

Add 'use strict' directive to IIFE output

While I principally tend to agree with this change, I'm wondering whether introducing
strict modein the function context might break sloppy code contained in the IIFE.simonua commentedon Oct 17, 2018
We currently don't have any tests for IIFE. IMHO, this would necessitate adding some coverage.

In theory, there won't be any sloppy or even non-static code contained in the IIFE, as it will just contain the template strings plus the surrounding Angular boilerplate added by this plugin.
However, I concur that test coverage for IIFE is a good idea. I will add a relevant commit to my PR.

@dmellstrom, thanks very much for adding the test.
