Add support for hot module reload #7

[Feature request] Hi. I'm just recently getting acquientance with nodejs, webpack, sass, etc., so I cannot answer this myself but, is it possible to add support for hot module reloading? i.e. does webpack work in a way that doesn't allow for it? I've read this project readme and the "reasons why sass-webpack-plugin is not the best case: [...] you need a hot module reload for styles". Should I restrict the use of this plugin to production builds only? I'd be more confortable with using the same method for both dev/prod environments. Otherwise I think this tool is fantastic.

in short - yes, it's possible, but I don't have enough time to do it. As the result each time the source styles are changed - a page will be reloaded. For me it's not critical for my development, maybe for some huge project it will be a blocker
