[CB-9434] before_build hook does not fire on run

• Type: Bug

Description

Steps to reproduce:

• Create hooks/before_build/010_test.js. Have it simply output some text to the console.
• Do:

  cordova build <platform>

  The expected text is present.

• Do:

  cordova run <platform>

  My expectation is that the text would be outputted, since "run" is more or less a wrapper around "prepare," "build," and some other commands. However, the text is not outputted.

Workaround:

• Do:

  cordova build <platform>

  The hook runs, and the app is built.

• Do:

  cordova run <platform> --nobuild

  The app built in the previous step is deployed to the phone/emulator.
