Serves to control simulatos, emulators and real devices.

Purpose of this tool is to manage all devices on а machine.
This is very convinience when a multiple builds are triggered.

Provides basic mathods as:

    -subscribeForDevice for device. Accepts:
        { platform :platformName, name: name, info: info, apiLevel:apiLevel }
        { platform :platformName, token: token, info: info, apiLevel:apiLevel }
        { type :deviceType, name: name, info: info, apiLevel:apiLevel }
    -unsubscribeFromDevice for {token: device.token}.
    -boot device.
    -kill device.

Basically works with query of type IDevice exposed in mobile-devices-controller 

    export interface IDevice {
        name: string,
        token: string,
        type: DeviceType,
        platform: Platform,
        status?: Status,
        startedAt?: number,
        busySince?: number,
        pid?: number,
        apiLevel?: string,
        info?: string,
        config?: any,
    }
