Summary:
public
A lot of the core modules have to use private methods in the bridge, specially
since the `RCTBatchedBridge` interface is never exposed. That was leading to a
lot of different private bridge categories spread across different modules,
which makes harder to identify which modules are affected by private API changes.
Replace all the categories with a single private header.

Summary:

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`).

Looping through every `RCTModuleData` to check whether the module responds to `-batchDidComplete` or `-partialBatchDidFlush` is unnecessarily expensive. We can cache the answer at the time that the module instance is actually initialized.

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

Added lightweight genarics annotations to make the code more readable and help the compiler catch bugs.
Fixed some type bugs and improved bridge validation in a few places.

UIExplorer tests were broken due to a refactor that didn't update the RCTShadowViewTests + an off-by-one error in the logic for exporting async methods.

Use arrays instead of dictionaries for encoding module method information.
This further reduces UIExplorer startup JSON from 16104 bytes to 14119 (12% reduction)

Summary: public
We're sending a lot of module config data when the app first starts, and much of this is redundant.
UIExplorer current sends 19061 bytes of module config JSON. This diff reduces that to 16104 (15% saving) by stripping modules that have no methods or constants, and removing method types unless method is async.

Summary:
Occasionally people create RCTBridgeModule subclasses or base classes that are not intended to be accessed from JS, and so they don't export them. This was previously flagged as an error by the system. I've now downgraded this error to a warning at startup, and deferred the redbox error until the module is directly accessed by native or JS code.
Summary:
@public
The info about bridge modules (such as id, name, queue, methods...) was spread
across arrays & dictionaries on the bridge, move it into a specific class.
It also removes a lot of information that was statically cached, and now have
the same lifecycle of the bridge.
Also moved RCTModuleMethod, RCTFrameUpdate and RCTBatchedBridge into it's own
files, for organization sake.
NOTE: This diff seems huge, but most of it was just moving code :)
Test Plan:
Tested UIExplorer & UIExplorer tests, Catalyst, MAdMan and Groups. Everything
looks fine.
