fix(prepare): clean platforms/.../app/ when running webpack

Every time we are running a new build with webpack the platforms/.../app/ dir should be deleted as there may be old assets
left.

Ex.
When the app bundled with snapshot enabled:
```
tns build android --bundle --env.snapshot
```
this produces some assets:
```
platforms/android/.../app/vendor.js
platforms/android/.../app/_embedded_script.js
// ...
```

Then, if the project is bundled without snapshot:
```
tns build android --bundle
```
the produced assets will override the ones that are already in
`platforms/android/.../app`. However, since the build is without
snapshot, an `_embedded_script.js` won't be generated to override the one
that's left in `platforms/android/.../app` from the previous build.

We'll be using `CleanWebpackPlugin` to clean the dist folder.
** Important **: Currently we're running two webpack builds when doing
`tns run android|ios` - one on prepare and one when the watcher starts.
This means that the dist folder will be cleaned two times. This will be
resolved when
NativeScript/nativescript-cli#3404 is
implemented.

fixes #463
