Summary:
(prior to the scroll metrics being set up, or prior to the view being scrolled to the right location).
I'm using a StackNavigator to push a FlatList secondary screen, and it was causing extraneous rendering (item X ->item 0 -> item X)
I've logged inside the render functions of my `renderItem` function, and verified that it no longer attempts to render item 0 anymore. And I've verified from the `VirtualizedList.state` no longer renders a `{first: 0, last: 0}`, but persistently stays at `{first: X, last: X}` from start until things stabilize.

Summary:
Returning an object that doesn't have all the required properties from `getItemLayout` doesn't cause a flow error (maybe because we are using `createAnimatedComponent`) and caused ALL items to be rendered which caused perf issues that were hard to debug (typo lenght -> length -_-). This adds a simple warning in DEV mode using checkPropTypes.

Tested in RNTester by passing a bad `getItemLayout` function.

Summary:
Curently FlatList does not implement setting native props directly like the old ListView did. This pr introduce the `setNativeProps` function which delegates to MetroListView or VirtualizedList. Thos don't have `setNativeProps` handling either, so, I delegated further to the respective ListView and Scroll components, which do have handling for it, thus, allowing to set the native props through FlatList.
Create a project with a FlatList and change a native property using `setNativeProps`:
```javascript
componentDidMount() {
setInterval(() => {
this.list.setNativeProps({ style: {backgroundColor:"white"} })
}, 1000)
}
render() {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<FlatList ref={component => this.list = component}
style={{backgroundColor:"black"}}
data={[{key: 'a'}, {key: 'b'}]}
renderItem={({item}) => <Text>{item.key}</Text>} />
</View>
)
}
```

Summary:
When rendering a large list without a getItemLayout (ie SectionList, where it's hard to compute), it freaks out and attempt to render them all, starving the rendering/layout engine from computing the size (and more accurately figurnge out how few it actually should render.)
Before this change, with <FlatList maxToRenderPerBatch={5} data={objectOfLengthN} />, I essentially saw it doing:
```
{first: 0, last: 0}
{first: 0, last: 5}
{first: 0, last: 10}
....
{first: 0, last: N}
```
(no more hiPri renders since all elements have been rendered)
(actually renders and lays out all N objects, and computes their sizes)
(realizes that it doesn't need to show all N for my current screen size and row size)
```{first: 0, last: 55}```
After this change, that whole first part where it keeps incrementing `last` to try to "keep up with the scrolling" disappears.

Summary:
Fixes https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/13784
The section footer was only rendered with the last item of the section. However, that meant in sections where no items were rendered, no section footer would be rendered. This patch makes sure that when there are no items the section footer is rendered with the section header in addition to adding tests asserting the existance of section footers in empty lists.
One potential point of contention is whether or not a section separator (as defined by the `SectionSeparatorComponent` prop to `<SectionList>`) should be rendered in an empty list. I did not include a section separator for empty lists, but let me know if you think one should be included. See the test plan below for an image of an empty section rendered without a section separator.
I was also running into a lint error, `no-alert`, in `SectionListExample.js` around line 135 that blocked me from publishing. This error looks to be triggered when the `alert()` global function is called, so to fix the error I added an import for the `Alert` module and called the `alert()` function on that module.
To help debug the `scrollToLocation()` behavior that was modified as a part of this PR I added three buttons (can be seen in the test plan image) which scroll to arbitrary points in the list.

Summary:
This is a simple bugfix. `_updateViewableItems` expects the `data` prop, as it calls `getItemCount` on it. Without this, `onViewableItemsChanged` updates twice for each scroll position, once from `_onScroll` with the incorrect results, and once from `_updateCellsToRender` with the correct results. This means the callback nigh-on unusable.
I simply logged the results of `onViewableItemsChanged` and made sure they were correct.

In a FlatList, I wanted to show some placeholder when my data is empty (while keeping eventual Header/Footer/RefreshControl).
A way around this issue would be to do something like adding a `ListHeaderComponent` that checks if the list is empty, like so:
```js
ListHeaderComponent={() => (!data.length ? <Text style={styles.noDataText}>No data found</Text> : null)}
```
But I felt it was not easily readable as soon as you have an actual header.
This PR adds a `ListEmptyComponent` that is rendered when the list is empty.
I added tests for VirtualizedList, FlatList and SectionList and ran `yarn test -- -u`. I then checked that the snapshots changed like I wanted.
I also tested this against one of my project, though I had to manually add my changes because the project is on RN 0.43.
Here are the docs screenshots:

Summary:
- If the initial render doesn't extend past `onEndReachedThreshold` it is likely that onEndReached won't get called until scroll, which can be a bad experience if the `initialNumToRender` is very close to the viewport height. This happens because when `onContentSizeChange`, `onLayout` may not have fired yet so we don't know what the `visibleLength` is. Fix is to also call `maybeCallOnEndReached` in `_onLayout` as well.
- We have an optimization that does hi-pri render window updates when scrolling quickly and the content reaches the edge of the viewport, but there is also an important case where the user has scrolled to the end of the content and is waiting for a network response. Once the new data comes in, we want to render it ASAP because the user is waiting for it. To solve this we refactor our scheduling code into a shared function that always checks if it should be a hi-pri update instead of just in `_onScroll`.

== [lists] better fill rate logging (previously D4907958)
After looking through some production data, I think this will address all the issues we're seeing. Now:
- Header/Footer getting no longer counted as blank.
- Avoid floating point for Scuba.
- Compare actual time of blankness, not just samples.
- Include both "any" vs. "mostly" blank (similar to 1 and 4 frame drops).
- Include events where there is no blankness so we have a baseline.
- Remove events with too few samples
**Test Plan: **

== [Lists] Update SectionSeparatorItem docs (previously D4909526)
Forgot to update the language here when we modified the behavior with the introduction of separator
highlighting support.
** Test Plan: **
nope.
== [Lists] Add renderSectionFooter prop to SectionList (previously D4923353)
Handy for things like "see more" links and such.
The logic here is to render the footer last, *after* the bottom section separator. This is to preserve
the highlighting behavior of the section separator by keeping it adjacent to the items.
**Test Plan: **
Added to snapshot test and example:
{F66635525}
{F66635526}
== [SectionList] Add a bunch more info for rendering items and separators (previously D4923663)
This extra info can be helpful for rending more complex patterns.
**Test Plan: **
Made snapshot test more comprehensive and inspected the output.
== [Lists] reduce render churn (previously D4924639)
I don't think the velocity based leadFactor is helping and might actually be hurting because
it causes a lot of churn in the items we render.
Instead, this diff introduces fillPreference which biases the window expansion in the direction of scroll,
but doesn't actually affect the final bounds of the window at all, so items that are already rendered are
more likely to stay rendered.
**Test Plan: **
Played around in debug mode and watched the overlay - seems better. Also tests all pass.
T16621861
== [Lists] Add initialScrollIndex prop
Makes it easy to load a VirtualizedList at a location in the middle of the content without
wasting time rendering initial rows that aren't relevant, for example when opening an infinite calendar
view to "today".
**Test Plan: **
With debug overlay, set `initialScrollIndex={52}` prop in `FlatListExample` and
and see it immediately render a full screen of items with item 52 aligned at the top of the screen. Note
no initial items are mounted per debug overlay. Scroll around a bunch and everything else seems to work
as normal.
No SectionList impl since `getItemLayout` isn't easy to use there.

Summary:
**Bug Description**
The FlatList component receives content items via the data prop, and renders an initial number of items on the app's view. When a user scrolls to the end of the list, the component will append and render more available items at the end of the list. There was a bug where when the content was filtered, there were more available items but the component did not append/render them. This is due to the current appending/rendering logic in VirtualizedList, which does not account for data changes as a condition for updating/rendering. VirtualizedList is a dependency of FlatList, so this issue affects FlatList as well.
**Approach to Fixing Bug**
(i) Reproduce bug on iOS view of FlatList.
(ii) For VirtualizedList component:
# Isolate onEndReached function that appends more data to component UI.
# Isolate _onContentSizeChange function that is called when list content changes.
# Write snapshot tests using jest, based off existing test for FlatList.
# Refactor logic to append more data to list into _maybeCallOnEndReached function.
# Call _maybeCallOnEndReached in both _onContentSizeChange and _onScroll.
(iii) Run snapshot tests and observe jest output.
(iv) Bring up iOS view of FlatList and check that component now renders more items when content is filtered.

Summary:
A nice bit of polish for apps is to update the separators between list items
when press actives the highlight (things get especially noticeable/ugly when
the separators are not full width and don't adjust). This can be difficult to
coordinate and update efficiently, so we bake the functionality into
`VirtualizedList`.
The approach taken here is a little different from `ListView`. We pass a new
`separators` object with `renderItem` that has easy-to-use callbacks for toggling
the 'highlighted' prop on both adjacent separators - they can be wired up
directly to the `onShow/HideUnderlay` props of `TouchableHighlight` (pit of
success and all that - we want those RN apps to be polished!), but we also
provide a more generic `separators.updateProps` method to set any custom
props. This also passes in `leadingItem` so more custom wiring can be done on
initial render (e.g. linking the highlight state with `Animated`).
This also moves the separator rendering into the `CellRenderer`. I think this might
also fix some subtle measurement bugs with the `onLayout` not capturing the
height of the separator, so that's nice too, but the main reason is to have
an easy place to store the state so we don't have to re-render the entire list
like `ListView` does. Instead we track references to the cells and call update
only on the two we care about so the feedback is instantaneous even with big,
heavy lists.
This diff also messes with a bunch of flow and updates the example to be more
like a standard list.
`SectionList` support is coming in a stacked diff.

Summary:
If tracking is enabled and the sampling check passes on a scroll or layout event,
we compare the scroll offset to the layout of the rendered items. If the items don't cover
the visible area of the list, we fire an `onFillRateExceeded` call with relevant stats for
logging the event through an analytics pipeline.
The measurement methodology is a little jank because everything is async, but it seems directionally
useful for getting ballpark numbers, catching regressions, and tracking improvements.
Benchmark testing shows a ~2014 MotoX starts hitting the fill rate limit at about 2500 px / sec,
which is pretty fast scrolling.
This also reworks our frame rate stuff so we can use a shared `SceneTracking` thing and track blankness
globally.
