Summary:
This PR is a followup to https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/11417 and should be merged after that one is merged.
1. Add support for creating blobs from strings, not just other blobs
1. Add the `File` constructor which is a superset of `Blob`
1. Add the `FileReader` API which can be used to read blobs as strings or data url (base64)
1. Add support for uploading and downloading blobs via `XMLHttpRequest` and `fetch`
1. Add ability to download local files on Android so you can do `fetch(uri).then(res => res.blob())` to get a blob for a local file (iOS already supported this)
1. Clone the repo https://github.com/expo/react-native-blob-test
1. Change the `package.json` and update `react-native` dependency to point to this branch, then run `npm install`
1. Run the `server.js` file with `node server.js`
1. Open the `index.common.js` file and replace `localhost` with your computer's IP address
1. Start the packager with `yarn start` and run the app on your device
If everything went well, all tests should pass, and you should see a screen like this:

Summary:
This is a simple groundwork PR to allow options to be passed to the `WebSocket` constructor. It represents a minor change to an undocumented part of the API, moving `headers` to within `options`.
This will be a BC for anyone manually specifying headers other than `origin` but a) that's not a common use case with WebSockets and b) it's not documented even in code and wouldn't currently pass a flow check.
NB: The third argument to the WebSocket constructor isn't part of the W3C spec, so I think this is a good place for RN-specific named parameters, better than adding a fourth argument. `protocols` needs to stay where it is, in line with the spec.
If this goes through I'd like to build on it by adding an additional connection option for SSL certificate pinning, as already supported by the underlying `okhttp` and `RCTSRWebSocket`. It could later be expanded for various other uses.
Currently, there's no way for a `WebSocket` user to specify any connection options other than url, protocol and headers. The fact that `WebSocket` connects in its constructor means any options have to go in there.
Connect to a websocket server using iOS and Android, observe the connection headers:
1. Without specifying `origin`, the default header should be set
2. Specifying it in the old way `new WebSocket(url, protocols, { origin: 'customorigin.com' })`
3. Specifying it in the new way `new WebSocket(url, protocols, { headers: { origin: 'customorigin.com' }})`.
I've tested myself using the test app with iOS and Android.

Summary:
This is the first PR from a series of PRs grabbou and me will make to add blob support to React Native. The next PR will include blob support for XMLHttpRequest.
I'd like to get this merged with minimal changes to preserve the attribution. My next PR can contain bigger changes.
Blobs are used to transfer binary data between server and client. Currently React Native lacks a way to deal with binary data. The only thing that comes close is uploading files through a URI.
Current workarounds to transfer binary data includes encoding and decoding them to base64 and and transferring them as string, which is not ideal, since it increases the payload size and the whole payload needs to be sent via the bridge every time changes are made.
The PR adds a way to deal with blobs via a new native module. The blob is constructed on the native side and the data never needs to pass through the bridge. Currently the only way to create a blob is to receive a blob from the server via websocket.
The PR is largely a direct port of https://github.com/silklabs/silk/tree/master/react-native-blobs by philikon into RN (with changes to integrate with RN), and attributed as such.
> **Note:** This is a breaking change for all people running iOS without CocoaPods. You will have to manually add `RCTBlob.xcodeproj` to your `Libraries` and then, add it to Build Phases. Just follow the process of manual linking. We'll also need to document this process in the release notes.

The websocket integration can be tested via a simple server,
```js
const fs = require('fs');
const http = require('http');
const WebSocketServer = require('ws').Server;
const wss = new WebSocketServer({
server: http.createServer().listen(7232),
});
wss.on('connection', (ws) => {
ws.on('message', (d) => {
console.log(d);
});
ws.send(fs.readFileSync('./some-file'));
});
```
Then on the client,
```js
var ws = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:7232');
ws.binaryType = 'blob';
ws.onerror = (error) => {
console.error(error);
};
ws.onmessage = (e) => {
console.log(e.data);
ws.send(e.data);
};
```

Summary:
To make React Native play nicely with our internal build infrastructure we need to properly namespace all of our header includes.
Where previously you could do `#import "RCTBridge.h"`, you must now write this as `#import <React/RCTBridge.h>`. If your xcode project still has a custom header include path, both variants will likely continue to work, but for new projects, we're defaulting the header include path to `$(BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR)/usr/local/include`, where the React and CSSLayout targets will copy a subset of headers too. To make Xcode copy headers phase work properly, you may need to add React as an explicit dependency to your app's scheme and disable "parallelize build".

Summary:
Idle WebSocket connections get reset after a few minutes of inactivity. To prevent this, most WebSocket implementations offer sending special ping messages. This PR adds a method `sendPing()` to WebSocket. Ping payloads are not supported.
Manual testing can be done by adding `connection.on('ping', _ => console.log('Received ping'));` to a ws connection or using a packet sniffer while sending pings.

- Allows custom headers on connection request
- Adds a default `origin` header to Android, just like iOS
**Introduces no breaking changes.**
I was working on something similar and would like to propose a few changes that make the API more consistent across both iOS and Android platforms and brings this closer to [spec](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6455).
I believe aprock first implementation of adding custom `headers` was correct. It makes sense naming this argument `headers` since we have no other general options available, and the current `options` field is being used to pass in a header anyway.
My use case for custom headers was attaching a token to the `Authorization` header on the connection request. I have been testing this by passing a JWT inside the `Authorization` header and verifying it on the server before establishing a connection.

Summary:
This allows consumers to subclass and extend `RCTWebSocketModule` and make use of the `RCTSRWebSocketDelegate` methods.
The use case here is to do some pre-processing of WebSocket data before handing it off to JS. Consumers could that in the following way:
```
interface MyWebSocketModule : RCTWebSocketModule
end
implementation MyWebSocketModule
// Don't use RCT_EXPORT_MODULE macro for this so we replace the existing RCTWebSocketModule.
+ (NSString *)moduleName { return @"RCTWebSocketModule"; }

RCT_EXTERN_METHOD(send:(NSString *)message socketID:(nonnull NSNumber *)socketID)

- (void)webSocket:(RCTSRWebSocket *)webSocket didReceiveMessage:(id)message
{

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
