Summary:
The build process for the server was a simple ts-node that compiled all deps. However, that didn't do any source transformations we need, like replacing `fb-stubs` with `fb` in facebook builds.
This diff works out the dev build process to align more with how other parts of the code base is build, by starting metro to build and bundle the server (only the sources of flipper-server, flipper-server-core and other flipper packages are bundled, node-deps are left as is).
To achieve this, since metro doesn't have support for 'external' packages like any arbitrarily other bundler, we recycle the electronRequire work around that is used in the desktop app as well

Summary:
I was running flipper-server on a fresh machine without Flipper installed and discovered that reading / writing settings failed since `~/.flipper` wasn't existing, due to using `access` instead of `pathExists`.
Added a warning about needing to restart the server after making changes, since that is tricky to do from the UI.
Fixed an issue in the settings screen, which would fs.stat as part of rendering, causing the Settings UI not to load.

Summary: This diff stubs all node modules when running in the browser, so that, albeit with a lot of errors and without plugins, the UI loads in a browser. To be continued in the rest of this diff

Summary: Introduced an API that converts a filepath, relatively to the `desktop/static/` folder in a url that can be resolved by the render environment. This will generate `file://` urls in Electron, and root relative `/` urls in browser envs

Summary: This diff makes most stuff that is read from the `os` package, and version info etc available from the `serverConfig` object, so that flipper-ui-core no longer needs the `os` package.

Summary: This diff makes plugin loading async, which we'd need in a browser env (either because we'd use `import()` or we need to fetch the source and than eval it), and deals with all the fallout of that

Summary:
This diff sets up the socket connection between flipper-browser and flipper-server, and verifies that the initial UI initialisation work (e.g. `get-config` command works). The initial RenderHost is initialised as well based on the config and browser APIs.
Note that flipper-ui-core itself isn't started yet, as that has still a plethora of node imports, so Metro will correctly refuse to bundle
Not in this diff
* remove Node usage from flipper-ui-core
* implement all RenderHost APIs
