1. feat(server): add contentBasePublicPath option …

   Tell the server at what URL to serve `devServer.contentBase`. If there was a file `assets/manifest.json`, it would be served at `/serve-content-base-at-this-url/manifest.json`
   
   __webpack.config.js__
   
   ```javascript
   module.exports = {
     //...
     devServer: {
       contentBase: path.join(__dirname, 'assets'),
       contentBasePublicPath: '/serve-content-base-at-this-url'
     }
   };
   ```
   
   Now `webpack-dev-server` serves static files (`contentBase`) from root ignoring `publicPath`
   Using added option we can serve static files from `publicPath`
   This use case is needed in create-react-app, when want to serve all files from `publicPath`
   doesn't matter in development or production
