Summary: A lot of people try to use a device as the very first thing when trying
out React Native. I've observed this at the developer workshop in Prague
and on Twitter.
However, developing on pre-API 21 devices is quite involved:
https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/running-on-device-android.html
I'm thinking we could recommend installing Android together with Android
studio. Android studio installs HAXM for you (hardware acceleration, without
this Google emulators are useless) and also creates and starts emulators.
So it would be quite a smooth experience similar to pressing 'Run' in Xcode.
We'd just need to integrate with Gradle so that installing the app also starts
the packager. I think that's something we should do in any case.
Probably an even better option is to build a React Native-specific tool that
lets you do everything you need: opens the Android SDK Manager, creates and
starts emulators, detects whether you have Genymotion and opens it, upgrades
node and npm etc.

There are many reasons why the Gradle build could fail and the best
thing to do is to read the error message.
We can provide some hints in the most common cases though.

Summary: Currently on error I have following output:
```
ERROR Packager can't listen on port 8081
Most likely another process is already using this port
Run the following command to find out which process:
lsof -n -i4TCP:8081
You can either shut down the other process:
kill -9 <PID>
or run packager on different port.
See http://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/troubleshooting.html
for common problems and solutions.

Summary: public
To improve cold start performance we want to be able to avoid decoding the bundle at all. To make that happen we need to be able to generate a bundle encoded on `ucs2`. This diff adds support for indicating the encoding the Packager should use for bundling.

This is not only to put the files on a place where it makes more sense but also to allow to use ES6 features on them as `/packager` is not whitelisted on `babel`.

Summary: public
We cannot remove `local-cli` because is referenced by the global cli explicitly. If we do so, people would have to upgrate this global thin cli which will cause some pain. So, lets move `private-cli` commands into `local-cli` instead.

Summary: This adds gradle tasks that call `react-native bundle` with the correct args to bundle dev/release JS and assets. The dev task is disabled by default, as in dev mode people only use reload JS in most cases.
Submitting this as a pull request to have community visibility, although we have this code internally as well now and this will require an import.
* generate a project with `react-native init`, add some assets, run `./gradlew assembleRelease`, sign & zipalign generated APK, run it -> works
* enable dev bundling task, run `./gradlew installDebug` (not `react-native run-android` so as to not start the packager) -> works

Summary: @public
We need to start using the `private-cli` for the new asset system. Note this is a breaking change! People will have to upgrade their workflows/scripts to start using the new cli. Otherwise we'd need to build a thin adapter that is aware of both APIs which is something we;d like to avoid. The major API changes are:
- API is now `entry-file` based instead of `url` based.
- /s/--out/--bundle-output
- /s/--out/--sourcemap-output
Also these parameters have no longer default values, you need to specify them. For instance, if you want to generate the sourcemaps you need to pass in the `--sourcemap-output` option
Lastly, additional project roots or asset roots need to be specified on the `rn-cli.config.js`.
