Docs: Updated iOS Component Guide
Summary: Follow up on https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/14436 hramos: > MapViewIOS was removed a couple of versions ago. No one has touched this guide in a while, so unless someone volunteers to get it back up to date, we'll probably end up removing it from the docs. I'm volunteering to get it back up to date! - Fixed broken code examples - Swapped out `pitchEnabled` for `zoomEnabled`, needs less explaining and it's easier to test on a simulator. - Renamed RNTMap to RNTMapView for clarity. - Renamed inconsistent `onChange`s to onRegionChange`. - Swapped out 'vending' for 'exposing'. I wasn't really sure about the last 3 points. I think it's more clear like this, but please review. I'll add some review comments as well.

Let's say we want to add an interactive Map to our app - might as well use [`MKMapView`](https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/mac/documentation/MapKit/Reference/MKMapView_Class/index.html), we just need to make it usable from JavaScript.

Native views are created and manipulated by subclasses of `RCTViewManager`. These subclasses are similar in function to view controllers, but are essentially singletons - only one instance of each is created by the bridge. They vend native views to the `RCTUIManager`, which delegates back to them to set and update the properties of the views as necessary. The `RCTViewManager`s are also typically the delegates for the views, sending events back to JavaScript via the bridge.

**Note:** Do not attempt to set the `frame` or `backgroundColor` properties on the `UIView` instance that you vend through the `-view` method. React Native will overwrite the values set by your custom class in order to match your JavaScript component's layout props. If you need this granularity of control it might be better to wrap the `UIView` instance you want to style in another `UIView` and return the wrapper `UIView` instead. See [Issue 2948](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/2948) for more context.

> In the example above, we prefixed our class name with `RNT`. Prefixes are used to avoid name collisions with other frameworks. Apple frameworks use two-letter prefixes, and React Native uses `RCT` as a prefix. In order to avoid name collisions, we recommend using a three-letter prefix other than `RCT` in your own classes.

Note that we explicitly specify the type as `BOOL` - React Native uses `RCTConvert` under the hood to convert all sorts of different data types when talking over the bridge, and bad values will show convenient "RedBox" errors to let you know there is an issue ASAP. When things are straightforward like this, the whole implementation is taken care of for you by this macro.

Sometimes you'll have some special properties that you need to expose for the native component, but don't actually want them as part of the API for the associated React component.

Since you don't want these native only properties to be part of the API, you don't want to put them in `propTypes`, but if you don't you'll get an error.

## Events

|

So now we have a native map component that we can control easily from JS, but how do we deal with events from the user, like pinch-zooms or panning to change the visible region? The key is to declare an event handler property on `RNTMapManager`, make it a delegate for all the views it vends, and forward events to JS by calling the event handler block from the native view. This looks like so (simplified from the full implementation):

Until now we've just returned a `MKMapView` instance from our manager's `-(UIView *)view` method. We can't add new properties to `MKMapView` so we have to create a new subclass from `MKMapView` which we use for our View. We can then add a `onRegionChange` callback on this subclass:

You can see we're adding an event handler property to the view by subclassing `MKMapView`. Then we're exposing the `onChange` event handler property and setting the manager as the delegate for every view that it vends. Finally, in the delegate method `-mapView:regionDidChangeAnimated:` the event handler block is called on the corresponding view with the region data. Calling the `onChange` event handler block results in calling the same callback prop in JavaScript.
