Warn the developer when a custom webpack.config.js fails

[kbariotis]

Phenomic currently shallows custom webpack.config.js errors. Let the develop know when her custom configuration fails.

Please for now use $ DEBUG=phenomic:plugin:webpack npm start to debug your config. I will make a change to only shallow when file does not exist (which was what I want in the first place) and also try to understand why "import" keyword does not work (since we are already using babel-register which should enable this)

[kbariotis]

Aw awesome, didnt know that! Thanks.

[MoOx]

I added that in alpha 3, but alpha 4 will provide errors out of the box!

Just note that in my setup, webpack.config.babel.js works properly with es6 syntax and imports.
