Summary:The UICollectionView example is actually my use-case, which is discussed in a
bit more detail [here](https://github.com/alloy/ReactNativeExperiments/issues/2).
----
This is useful when wrapping native iOS components that determine their
own suggested size and which would be too hard/unnecessary to replicate
in the shadow view. For instance a `UICollectionView` that after layout
will update its `contentSize`, which could be used to suggest a size to
the shadow view.
The reason for adding it to -[RCTShadowView setFrame:] is mainly so it
can be used via the existing -[RCTUIManager setFrame:forView:] API and
because it might not be a feature you want to expose too prominently.
An origin of `{ NAN, NAN }` is used as a sentinel to indicate that the
frame should be used as a size suggestion. The size portion of the rect
may contain a `NAN` to skip that dimension or a suggested value for the
dimension which will be used if no explicit styling has been assigned.
Examples:

Summary:The `uiBlockToAmendWithShadowViewRegistry:` is called on every single view manager, on every single layout pass. This causes all view managers to be eagerly intiialized, even if not being used.
In practice very few modules actually use this method, so by checking if the method is implemented before calling it, we can eliminate most of this work.
(Hopefully in future we can get ride of this method altogether, but right now it's integral to the way that text layout is implemented).

Summary:

Most of the time - especially during app startup - when we call UIManager.manageChildren(), we are actually just adding the first set of children to a newly created view.
This case is already optimized for in the JS code, by memoizing index arrays at various sizes, but this is not especially efficient since it is still sending an array of indices with each call that could be easily inferred on the native side instead.
I've added a hybrid native/JS optimization that improves the performance for this case. It's not a huge win in terms of time saved, but benchmarks show improvements in the ~1% range for several of the app startup metrics.

Thanks to the new lazy initialization system for modules, `RCTDidCreateNativeModules` no longer does what the name implies.
Previously, `RCTDidCreateNativeModules` was fired after all native modules had been initialized. Now, it simply fires each time the bridge is reloaded. Modules are created on demand when they are needed, so most of the assumptions about when `RCTDidCreateNativeModules` will fire are now incorrect.
This diff deprecates `RCTDidCreateNativeModules`, and adds a new notification, `RCTDidInitializeModuleNotification`, which fires each time a module a new module is instantiated.
If you need to access a module at any time you can just call `-[bridge moduleForClass:]` and the module will be instantiated on demand. If you want to access a module *only* after it has already been instantiated, you can use the `RCTDidInitializeModuleNotification` notification.

Summary:
A component can be backed by native "node" that can change its internal state, which would result in a new UI after the next layout. Since js has no way of knowing that this has happened it wouldn't trigger a layout if nothing in js world has changed. Therefore we need a way how to trigger layout from native code.
This diff does it by adding methods `layoutIfNeeded` on the uimanager and `isBatchActive` on the bridge.
When `layoutIfNeeded` is called it checks whether a batch is in progress. If it is we do nothing, since at it's end layout happens. If a batch is not in progress we immidiately do layout.
I went with the easiest way how to implement this - `isBatchActive` is a public method on the bridge. It's not ideal, but consistent with other methods for modules.

This diff replaces the RegEx module method parser with a handwritten recursive descent parser that's faster and easier to maintain.
The new parser is ~8 times faster when tested on the UIManager.managerChildren() method, and uses ~1/10 as much RAM.
The new parser also supports lightweight generics, and is more tolerant of white space.
(This means that you now can – and should – use types like `NSArray<NSString *> *` for your exported properties and method arguments, instead of `NSStringArray`).

Summary:

Currently, we wait to invoke `-flushUIBlocks` until the JavaScript batch to native has completed. This means we may be waiting an unnecessarily long time to perform view hierarchy changes and prop changes.
By instead invoking this after each chunk of enqueued UI blocks, we can perform some updates more eagerly, increasing our utilization of the main thread while splitting up the amount of time we spend running upon it.
This shouldn't affect layout, which is still tied to `-batchDidComplete`, so any visual inconsistencies should be limited to prop changes, which seems acceptable for the dramatic improvement in performance.

Summary: public
The `bridge.modules` dictionary provides access to all native modules, but this API requires that every module is initialized in advance so that any module can be accessed.
This diff introduces a better API that will allow modules to be initialized lazily as they are needed, and deprecates `bridge.modules` (modules that use it will still work, but should be rewritten to use `bridge.moduleClasses` or `-[bridge moduleForName/Class:` instead.
The rules are now as follows:
* Any module that overrides `init` or `setBridge:` will be initialized on the main thread when the bridge is created
* Any module that implements `constantsToExport:` will be initialized later when the config is exported (the module itself will be initialized on a background queue, but `constantsToExport:` will still be called on the main thread.
* All other modules will be initialized lazily when a method is first called on them.
These rules may seem slightly arcane, but they have the advantage of not violating any assumptions that may have been made by existing code - any module written under the original assumption that it would be initialized synchronously on the main thread when the bridge is created should still function exactly the same, but modules that avoid overriding `init` or `setBridge:` will now be loaded lazily.
I've rewritten most of the standard modules to take advantage of this new lazy loading, with the following results:
Out of the 65 modules included in UIExplorer:
* 16 are initialized on the main thread when the bridge is created
* A further 8 are initialized when the config is exported to JS
* The remaining 41 will be initialized lazily on-demand

Summary: There is no point in dispatching to main thread if there is nothing to do there.
This place gets called basically any time a repeating js timer fires, which doesn't imply UI changes (although usually that's why people setup timers).
Combined with previous diffs that makes us not generate empty blocks (nil instead), this could be minor perf win in some rare cases.
This also changes semantic of `reactBridgeDidFinishTransaction` call a bit. Previously it was done no matter if UI has changed or not.
I think it should be safe, since seems like callees really care only about views being laid out.

That seems pretty arbitrary, doesn't really mean a "transaction" is really over (assuming transaction means all UI updates) and even when that block does nothing we still need to call these listeners, since there could be other UI blocks generated somewhere else!
So I've moved this call to a place that seemed better (=after all UI blocks are done), since all listeners are interested in knowing when layout has happened.

Summary: When you reload and create a new bridge, one of the things that happens during setup is that the RCTAccessibilityManager fires a notification. The old bridge would receive this notification from the new bridge's RCTAccessibilityManager, which we don't want, especially because the two are running on different shadow queues.
I believe this led to a gnarly crash in NSConcreteTextStorage because RCTMeasure in RCTShadowText.m was getting called for the old RCTText (getting destroyed) from a notification fired from the new shadow queue. The fix is for the UIManager to handle notifications only from its bridge's RCTAccessibilityManager. See #2001 for the kinds of crashes we were seeing.

Summary:
We currently wait until after views have been updated on the main thread before sending layout events. This means that any code that relies on those events to update the UI will lag the atual layout by at least one frame.
This changes the RCTUIManager to send the event immediately after layout has occured on the shadow thread. This noticably improves the respinsiveness of the layout example in UIExplorer, which now updates the dimension labels immediately instead of waiting until after the layout animation has completed.
Summary:
Currently, the system for mapping JS event handlers to blocks is quite clean on the JS side, but is clunky on the native side. The event property is passed as a boolean, which can then be checked by the native side, and if true, the native side is supposed to send an event via the event dispatcher.
This diff adds the facility to declare the property as a block instead. This means that the event side can simply call the block, and it will automatically send the event. Because the blocks for bubbling and direct events are named differently, we can also use this to generate the event registration data and get rid of the arrays of event names.
The name of the event is inferred from the property name, which means that the property for an event called "load" must be called `onLoad` or the mapping won't work. This can be optionally remapped to a different property name on the view itself if necessary, e.g.
RCT_REMAP_VIEW_PROPERTY(onLoad, loadEventBlock, RCTDirectEventBlock)
If you don't want to use this mechanism then for now it is still possible to declare the property as a BOOL instead and use the old mechanism (this approach is now deprecated however, and may eventually be removed altogether).
