Apply react_on_rails:install generator updates

Ran the react_on_rails:install generator to get latest v16.1.1 improvements:

- Enhanced bin/dev script with better development server management
- Added Procfile variations for different development modes:
  - Procfile.dev: HMR mode with webpack-dev-server
  - Procfile.dev-static-assets: Watch mode without HMR
  - Procfile.dev-prod-assets: Development with production assets
- Updated webpack configurations for v16.1.1 compatibility
- Updated shakapacker.yml configuration
- Updated babel.config.js
- Updated react_on_rails initializer
- Added generateWebpackConfigs.js helper

These updates provide better development experience and align with React on Rails v16.1.1 best practices.
