progress-bar-webpack-plugin increasing and decreasing progress

Sometimes the progress bar goes back in terms of percentage 55% => 54% => 55%

Webpack version 2.2.1 progress-bar-webpack-plugin version 1.9.3

I think this is actually a webpack core bug. If you use --progress on a general webpack build it does the same thing on large projects.

@vire I don't know that this is an issue with this plugin or Webpack. When you're building without any progress plugin, you'll see that Webpack increases resolved dependencies to its queue as it goes along, which is why the percentage might increase or decrease, but ultimately it's representative of current/total.

I reviewed this plugin's source code, I think this is may be a webpack bug, this plugin just calculates it.
