Description
Nativescript 8.0.7
Xcode 12.4
Webpack 5.0.0-beta.0
Editing the webpack.config.js file does not push changes to simulator on debug.
Any changes to the webpack.config.js file are ignored after running ns debug ios.
Have done a ns clean and run ns debug ios but problem persists.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with NativeScript 8.0.7, Xcode 12.4, and Webpack 5.0.0-beta.0: run ns debug ios, edit webpack.config.js, and observe whether the simulator updates. Check the debug iOS watch or rebuild entry points; done means webpack configuration edits trigger the expected simulator rebuild without requiring a clean.
