Bug

#### What is the use-case or motivation for changing an existing behavior?
Anyone that want to create a component with configurable `md-table` inside cannot do it.
#### Which versions of Angular, Material, OS, TypeScript, browsers are affected?
Angular: `4.4.0-RC.0` in the plunker, but this is not working with any version.
Material: `2.0.0-beta.10`
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the failure in the linked Plunker with ng-content inside md-table, then trace when md-table accesses getColumnsDiff relative to projected content replacement. Done means md-table waits for the projected content and no longer throws the undefined-property error when used inside a configurable component.
