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.

Summary:
public
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:
Moved the view creation & property binding logic out of RCTUIManager into a separate RCTComponentData class - this follows the pattern used with the bridge.
I've also updated the property binding to use pre-allocated blocks for setting the values, which is more efficient than the previous system that re-contructed the selectors each time it was called. This should improve view update performance significantly.
Summary:
Dynamic Text Sizes for Text component.
Text gains new prop - allowFontScaling (false by default).
There is also AccessibilityManager module that allows you to tune multipliers per each content size category.
Summary:
Dynamic Text Sizes for Text component.
Text gains new prop - allowFontScaling (true by default).
There is also AccessibilityManager module that allows you to tune multipliers per each content size category, but predefined multipliers are there.
This could potentially break some apps so please test carefully.
