Issues with getting io.appium.uiautomator2.server.test package info

[AnnaWyrwal]

Appium v1.9.2-beta.2 (CLI)
Windows 10 + Android 7 real device (Huwawei)

During each startup of Appium session io.appium.uiautomator2.server.test is reinstalled due to issues with getting version name and version code. The re-installation causes additional performance hit, which could be skipped.

This should no longer happen, with this change.

Please try with the latest beta (npm uninstall -g appium && npm install -g appium@beta).

[AnnaWyrwal]

You're right, with that change it works just great. Cool, thank you :)
