Summary:
VirtualizedList sets high priority rendering when scrolled to the top of a list even if the bottom of the rendered list is still far away and there's nothing further to render above. This causes severe non-responsiveness while dozens of items are waiting to be rendered and user inputs can't get through.
The fix is simply to not consider it high priority to render more items when we reach the top and the first item has already been rendered, or when we reach the bottom and the last item has been rendered.
The code change just splits the two cases (hitting the top and bottom) instead of combining them into one.
I wrote a small application that switches between two FlatLists.
Demo of the original VirtualizedList

I'm clicking pretty often on the button, but you can see that it only switches lists a split second after the rendering is all done because the javascript thread was being blocked.

You can see this one is significantly more responsive than the previous one.

Summary:
This PR removes the need for having the `providesModule` tags in all the modules in the repository.
It configures Flow, Jest and Metro to get the module names from the filenames (`Libraries/Animated/src/nodes/AnimatedInterpolation.js` => `AnimatedInterpolation`)
* Checked the Flow configuration by running flow on the project root (no errors):
```
yarn flow
```
* Checked the Jest configuration by running the tests with a clean cache:
```
yarn jest --clearCache && yarn test
```
* Checked the Metro configuration by starting the server with a clean cache and requesting some bundles:
```
yarn run start --reset-cache
curl 'localhost:8081/IntegrationTests/AccessibilityManagerTest.bundle?platform=android'
curl 'localhost:8081/Libraries/Alert/Alert.bundle?platform=ios'

Summary:
A common UI pattern for list empty states is some text/images centered inside the visible part of the list. This is pretty hard to do currently because we wrap ListEmptyComponent with an extra view with no way to style it so we cannot just use `flex: 1` to make it fill the available space.
- Added an example of ListEmptyComponent in the FlatList example in RNTester
Before (no way to make ListEmptyComponent fill the space):

Summary:
Right now when an interaction is recorded on a parent VirtualizedList, the interaction isn't passed on to its children. That means that if `waitForInteraction` is set to true for a child list's viewability helper, it will never trigger a VPV.
This change adds forwarding of these events inside `onBeginScrollDrag`. It also forwards the interaction state of the parent list at register time, in case a child list is rendered mid-scroll.

Sticky headers for inverted lists should still stick at the top of the list instead of the bottom.

It does add a prop to ScrollView but it's very specific to the inverted list implementation, not sure if it should be documented.

Summary:
Setting `windowSize = 0` doesn't make sense. Let's make sure we catch this problem in the constructor so that it doesn't cause inexplicable list behavior.
Also fixed an invariant in `VirtualizeUtils` that is meant to prohibit non-monotonically-increasing offset arrays. As written, the invariant condition can never actually be violated.

Summary:
The change enabling virtualization in nested lists contained a hidden assumption that nested lists would only appear within the *cells* of a parent list.
If a list header or footer component contains a `VirtualizedList`, that child list won't be wrapped in a `CellRenderer` component and therefore won't have access to `virtualizedCellRenderer` through its context. This causes an error when the child list tries to access the `cellKey` property on an undefined object.
This change wraps the header/footer views in a `VirtualizedCellWrapper` component which supplies that context properly.

Summary:
In the current implementation of the `VirtualizedList` the `onViewableItemsChanged` callback wouldn't trigger if the underlying list data changes. (see example snack https://snack.expo.io/Hk5703eBb)
I added a method in the `ViewabilityHelper` to invalidate the cached viewableIndices, which gets triggered when the list-data changes.

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.
**Test plan**
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:
This uses `context` to render inner lists of the same orientation to a plain `View` without
virtualization instead of rendering nested `ScrollView`s trying to scroll in the same direction,
which can cause problems.
