Description
Currently running a webpacked application on android doesn't work if using source maps configuration different than "inline-source-map" or "none". It would be good for developers to be able to use other source map types as described in here: https://webpack.js.org/configuration/devtool/ . To provide this feature it's possible that changes should be made in the js_parser.js logic which is part of the static binding generator process.

Research direction
Start by reading js_parser.js in the static binding generator process and trace how webpack source maps are handled for Android. Confirm which devtool types currently fail, then verify that source map configurations beyond "inline-source-map" and "none" work in a webpacked Android application.
