When running a node entry point via the Parcel dev server, we execute in a worker thread as of #10055. Previously we still relied on a web socket connection from the node process to the dev server for updates. However, there is an ordering requirement: when the server code is updated, the server needs to handle the HMR update first before the client tries to reload the page or it will receive out of date content or an error.
This updates the node process to use the worker thread's MessagePort to deliver HMR updates directly. The HMR client also replies back to the server after applying an update. Once this occurs, we then deliver the update via the web socket to the browser, which will reload. This way the order is guaranteed to be correct.
