Feature request - reactNative.restartPackager command

[chenxsan]

There are many situations when we need to restart the packager, like adding some images to folder causing TransformError...Unexpected character, as far as I know, the only way to fix it is to restart packager, right now I had to stop packager first then start it again. It would be helpful if there are a restartPackager command.

@chenxsan @dominictobias @tapir We are looking into doing this now. When you want this, is it because the packager is in an invalid state and you would also like the cache to be reset?

I implemented this in the restart_packager branch, PR #299

@MSLaguana, @mbraude, can we close this? This seems to be implemented and works perfectly for me.
