Add COMPILE_DEPENDENCIES build setting

Closed Administrator requested to merge github/fork/DylanVann/compile-dependencies-setting into master

Created by: DylanVann

This adds a setting to disable the running of babel-loader on dependencies.

Adding babel-loader on dependencies significantly impacts build time. The impact of this can be up to an extra minute.

This PR reads the COMPILE_DEPENDENCIES environment variable.

  • If unset or true then compile dependencies as is done now.
  • If set to false do not add babel-loader for dependencies.

This is adding more configuration, and may not be in line with the direction of CRA (less config), but it could help people experiencing high build times who know their dependencies do not contain code breaking in their target browsers.
