Description

A plugin for html-webpack-plugin, reorder common chunkFiles beyond <script> tags to make sure jQuery plugins work

When using jQuery plugins in webpack and the jQuery itself is expose(expose-loader) by webpack, then we put it into the common chunks, now using html-webpack-plugin to compile this template file

    <script src="/public/static/libs/abc/jquery.abc.js"></script>
    <script src="http://localhost:8188/dist/js/common.js"></script>
    <script src="http://localhost:8188/dist/js/home.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

And we got

    <script src=/public/static/libs/abc/jquery.abc.js></script>
    <script src=http://localhost:8188/dist/js/common.js></script>
    <script src=http://localhost:8188/dist/js/home.js></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="/public/static/dist/js/common.js?e0697ddd"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="/public/static/dist/js/home.js?f0f6b1f2"></script>
</body>
</html>

The abc jQuery plugin won't works, we need to reorder the common.js file before the jquery.abc.js

Arguments
