Summary:
This diff exposes the new more generic way to configure transformers in `Metro` via the config parameter `transformerPath`.
The new generic transformers can be used to transform any kind of file, since they don't call any JS-specific method and their API is generic. They only need to implement a single `transform` method:
```
async function transform(
absolutePath: string,
relativePath: string,
fileContents: Buffer,
options: TransformOptions, // very soon these will be configurable
): Promise<{
output: Array<mixed>,
dependencies: Array<{
name: string,
data: mixed, // very soon
}>,
}> {
// ...
}
```
Metro already had a `transformModulePath` config param, which was used to configure how babel was called in order to generate the AST. In order to avoid confusion, but keep the current open source transformer worker, I've renamed this param to `babelTransformerPath`. We can add a layer of compatibility and detect old config params in order to show a deprecation warning.
