/**
 * ============================  angular-ios9-uiwebview.patch.js v1.0.3 ============================
 *
 * This patch works around iOS9 UIWebView regression that causes infinite digest errors in Angular.
 *
 * The patch can be applied to Angular 1.2.0 – 1.4.5. Newer versions of Angular have the workaround baked in.
 *
 * To apply this patch load/bundle this file with your application and add a dependency on the "ngIOS9Patch" module
 * to your main app module.
 *
 * For example:
 *
 * ```
 * angular.module('myApp', ['ngRoute'])`
 * ```
 *
 * becomes
 *
 * ```
 * angular.module('myApp', ['ngRoute', 'ngIOS9UIWebViewPatch'])
 * ```
 *
