Deprecated file-loader

Now It's recommended to use asset modules instead of file-loader, url-loader, etc.

You're always welcome to create a PR. I don't have the time to look into this right now.

I'm not sure if any changes are necessary. The following change appears to work for me:

Or type: 'asset', to auto detect if the image should be inlined or not, or 'asset/inline' to always inline. See the Webpack Asset Modules docs.
This could be mentioned in the README though.
