Add support for favicons for Webpack #83

[ ] Investigate options for generating icon references and including them in index-template.html. (some sites such as create-react-app use a templating mechanism to insert things into the HTML + copying files using copy-webpack-plugin, but I don't like this mechanism)
[ ] implement mechanism
[ ] add default favicons

👍 If you are using HtmlWebpackPlugin you can add the path to your favicon in the config:

new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
  filename: 'index.html',
  favicon: '/img/favicon.png'
});

Also, this plugin https://github.com/jantimon/favicons-webpack-plugin will generate the favicons. If you use both plugins HtmlWebpackPlugin and FaviconsWebpackPlugin the favicons will be automatically inserted in the html without having to specify them in the HtmlWebpackPlugin config.

In Angular 2 Class repo, they have a HTMLElementsPlugin which does exactly what we want: https://github.com/AngularClass/angular2-webpack-starter/blob/master/config/html-elements-plugin/index.js
