Summary: When starting to use `metro-bundler` as a standalone server, I found quite complicated the fact that it needs a transformer by default. Moreover, the transformer is not passed as a reference to a JS object, but as a path to a required file. I removed the need to be required, and defaulted to a dummy, basic transform, that does nothing by default. This avoids having to create an extra file and linking to it (potentially needing to involve `path` and other extra modules).

**Summary**
<!-- Explain the **motivation** for making this change. What existing problem does the pull request solve? -->
I am sending this PR to fix an error in TransformCaching module. See this issue [TransformCaching module try to collect cache every time I build bundle #46](https://github.com/facebook/metro-bundler/issues/46).
**Test plan**
<!-- Demonstrate the code is solid. Example: The exact commands you ran and their output, screenshots / videos if the pull request changes UI. -->

/**
* When restarting packager we want to avoid running the collection over
* again, so we store the last collection time in a file and we check that
* first.
*/
_collectCacheIfOldSync() {
const {_rootPath} = this;
const cacheCollectionFilePath = path.join(_rootPath, 'last_collected');
const lastCollected = Number.parseInt(
tryReadFileSync(cacheCollectionFilePath) || '',
10,
);
if (
Number.isInteger(lastCollected) &&
Date.now() - lastCollected < GARBAGE_COLLECTION_PERIOD
) {
return;
}
const effectiveCacheDirPath = path.join(_rootPath, CACHE_SUB_DIR);
mkdirp.sync(effectiveCacheDirPath);
collectCacheSync(effectiveCacheDirPath);
fs.writeFileSync(cacheCollectionFilePath, Date.now().toString());
}
```
Steps:
1. Create a new react-native project.
2. Put your breakpoint at this sentence `collectCacheSync(effectiveCacheDirPath);`.
3. Bundle the project, program will break at `collectCacheSync(effectiveCacheDirPath);`
4. Resume the program, finish the first time bundle.
5. Bundle again, this time program won't break.

Summary:
The HMR logic used to try to calculate the dependencies of every new added (or modified) file, including assets. This resulted in a TransformError.
This commit adds a check that stops the HMR bundling once it finds out that the updated file is an asset

Summary: We were not using the timeout at all, so we decided to remove it. Also, the current value is pretty high, so it should never fail unless there's something really bad.

Summary:
We'll revert when the root problem is fixed, that should mitigate for now.
What might be the root problem, I believe, is that when there are some cached files already on the machine, we immediately try to build all the dependencies, but the worker farm is queuing these and it takes a long time to finish. The timeout should include only the transformation time, not the queuing. I'll fix that separately.

Summary: It might be that Metro bundler is getting used directly with the `http` module and not within an express app. If that's the case, the `next` method will not exist, so we have to guard against it.

Summary: This is the last piece of work to make all the clients do a single request for both HMR/non-HMR modes. I'm not completely sure how this URL is used by the client, but it does not need the `hot` param.

Summary:
This diff enables the HMR transforms for any bundle requested through the metro-bundler HTTP server, so it ignores the `hot` parameter passed in the URL.
This allows much faster switches when enabling/disabling HMR, since metro-bundler does not need to re-compile each single file again, while not impacting substantially build times when HMR is off.
I've done some lightweight benchmarks on my machine and these are the results (all the tests have been done after running metro-bundler with a clean cache and restarting the app).
**Before**
Time to build (HMR off): 1x (baseline)
Time to build (HMR on): 1.90x
**This diff**
Time to build (HMR off): 1.009x
Time to build (HMR on): 1.036x
(The reason why now it takes double the time to load the HMR bundle than the non-HMR bundle after launching the app is because the device after a restart always asks for the non-HMR bundle and afterwards the HMR bundle, causing the server to have to build both bundles).
**Bundle size**
In terms of bundle size, adding the HMR transforms increases the size by around 3-4% (this regression is due to the wrappers added around React components, and will depend on the app).
**Next steps**
There are two improvements to do after this diff:
1. Remove the `hot=true` parameter from the clients when they request the bundle. This will reduce by half the memory used by metro-bundler when switching from non-HMR to HMR (or when opening the app with HMR enabled), since metro-bundler caches the bundles based on url.
2. After this diff, the `hot` parameter in the various options objects will not make much sense, so my suggestion is to just remove it from everywhere and instead of checking for that parameter in the transformer, check for `dev=true` there.

Summary: now that `ResolutionRequest.resolveDependency` is synchronous, we can also make `ResolveFn` synchronous.
