Description

At the moment, the only entrypoint for webpack seems to be /webpack. webpack.config.js should also support code coming from plugins.
Using bundler, we can fetch this directory trivially - a dumb heuristic could be to add as an entry point the '/webpack' directory of all gem dependencies that look like "foreman*".

fixes #20097 - webpack support for foreman plugins

How to use:

in a plugin, create a directory call webpack
then inside a file called index.js put something like:

```
import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import Icon from 'foremanReact/common/Icon';

const reactNode = document.querySelector('#content');

if (reactNode) {
ReactDOM.render(
<Icon type='ok' />,
reactNode);
};

```
TODOS:

- support JEST / eslint
- extend the react mounter, so plugins can add more mounting points and
use them.
- update storybook to support plugins too
- make equivalnt of rake test
