Michel Weststrate 4964966b91 Fix Flipper crashing to an empty screen

Summary:
Changelog: Fixed issue where a Flipper crash would result in an entirely blank screen, rather than a useful error message.

While debugging another issue, discovered that React errors that happen outside a Plugin aren't caught at all, resulting in the infamous gray screen of deaths. This was the case because no error boundary has been set up for our Chrome, and since React 16 the default error handling has becoming rendering blank, rather than freezing. See https://reactjs.org/docs/error-boundaries.html#new-behavior-for-uncaught-errors.

Thanks to ant.design styling this decently was trivial :). But sadly involved a component class since error boundaries are not yet available as hook.

With these changes the errors should also end up more readably in our monitoring.

flipper-plugin

flipper-plugin is the dependency used by all modern Flipper plugins (project "Tommy").

For background: https://fb.quip.com/YHOGAnaPqAVJ

flipper-plugin is to be used as dev and peer dependency of all Flipper plugins. It provides:

(TODO) Standard API's to interact with Flipper, such as the client connection.
(TODO) Standard components to organize the UI
(TODO) Testing utilities

API's provided by flipper-plugin are documented at fbflipper.com (TODO).

There should normally be no need to install flipper-plugin as dependency. Rather, plugins should be scaffolded using npx flipper-pkg init (TODO) as documented here
