Alex Kotliarskyi e2b25c8c9d Add multipart response stream reader
Summary:
Packager can take a long time to load and the progress is usually displayed in another window (Terminal). I'm adding support for showing a UI inside React Native app for packager's progress when loading a bundle.

This is how it will work:

1. React Native sends request to packager with `Accept: multipart/mixed` header.
2. Packager will detect that header to detect that client supports progress events and will reply with `Content-Type: multipart/mixed`.
3. While building the bundle it will emit chunks with small metadata (like `{progress: 0.3}`). In the end it will send the last chunk with the content of the bundle.
4. RN runtime will be receiving the events, for each progress event it will update the UI. The last chunk will be the actual bundle which will end the download process.

This workflow is totally backwards-compatible -- normally RN doesn't set the `Accept` header.
