Add flexibility to the start script

[license2e]

Description

Instead of just calling openBrowser, allow developers to pass in a script to kick off the start or open functionality. For example, this would be useful for use with electron development.

Proposed behavior

Inside: packages/react-scripts/scripts/start.js

I think #873 (and #1148) should cover this. It's not exactly the same solution but I think we can close this as a duplicate of #873.
