Ember addons that use babel plugins cannot be developed on using npm link or yarn link

[Duder-onomy]

(please let me know if this belongs somewhere else)

When I attempt to work on a ember addon by yarn link or npm link babel cannot resolve plugins.

Steps to reproduce:

• ember new
• git clone a ember addon with babel plugins ( ember-cli-imgix uses babel plugins ) git clone git@github.com:imgix/ember-cli-imgix.git
• run npm link in the addons dir.
• run npm link <addon name> in the newly created ember app.
• run ember serve

Observe that ember cannot resolve the babel plugins.

My feeling is that it has something to do with: babel/babel-loader#149 (comment)
But I really don't know.

You might see something like:

My current workaround is to push the addon and consume it by commit hash.

@lukemelia is this the same basic issue that you were mentioning to me tonight after Ember NYC?

@rwjblue the repro steps match; the specific error that I saw is different, but it was on ember-cli 2.18. I'm not sure if it is triggered by addons with babel plugins, but that is certainly possible.
