Explore creating webpack plugin

[DaniJG]

An alternative way of achieving the same results could be creating a webpack plugin that:

• adds all the components/views/etc into the compilation context
• keeps track of all the found components/views/etc into an object
• uses the webpack.ProvidePlugin to make the object keeping track of components/views/etc available to src/main.js
• The Vue plugin just needs to loop through components/views/etc and call Vue.use (rather than the plugin having to call require.context!)

Some links from a quick google session:

• Add require.context.keys-like feature to import webpack/webpack#7283 (comment) He was looking for a similar behaviour to be built-in into webpack, and ended creating a loader: https://github.com/Codility/burdoc/blob/master/burdocImportsLoader.js
