Summary: We're focusing the React Native core on a set of high quality essential components and will be removing any modules that do not belong in that set. If you're currently using AdSuppportIOS, it will remain available in the react-native-deprecated-modules archive. There's also alternative implementations such as https://github.com/ptomasroos/react-native-idfa/.

Summary:
It's very important in complex UIs to be able to apply alpha channel-based masks to arbitrary content. Common use cases include adding gradient masks at the top or bottom of scroll views, creating masked text effects, feathering images, and generally just masking views while still allowing transparency of those views.
The original motivation for creating this component stemmed from work on `react-navigation`. As I tried to mimic behavior in the native iOS header, I needed to be able to achieve the effect pictured here (this is a screenshot from a native iOS application):
In this image, there are two masks:
- A mask on the back button chevron
- A gradient mask on the right button
In addition, the underlying view in the navigation bar is intended to be a UIBlurView. Thus, alpha masking is the only way to achieve this effect.
Behind the scenes, the `maskView` property on `UIView` is used. This is a shortcut to setting the mask on the CALayer directly.
This gives us the ability to mask any view with any other view. While building this component (and testing in the context of an Expo app), I was able to use a `GLView` (a view that renders an OpenGL context) to mask a `Video` component!
I chose to implement this only on iOS right now, as the Android implementation is a) significantly more complicated and b) will most likely not be as performant (especially when trying to mask more complex views).
Review the `<MaskedViewIOS>` section in the RNTester app, observe that views are masked appropriately.

Summary:
MapView has been deprecated in open source for a while: http://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/mapview.html
We still want to use it internally. Moving it away from the GitHub folder.

Summary:
Enable back navigation on Apple TV (with the remote's menu button) in code making use of BackAndroid. The module is renamed to BackHandler. BackAndroid is still exported to ReactNative for now, until external projects switch to using the new name for the module. The navigation in https://github.com/react-community/react-navigation makes use of this module.
**Test plan**: Manual testing with an example app (https://github.com/dlowder-salesforce/react-nav-example).

Summary:
This PR is based on files ericvicenti gave me. Specifically, he gave me:
- AccessibilityInfo.android.js
- AccessibilityInfo.ios.js
- AccessibilityInfoModule.java
Before this change, only a native iOS implementation of AccessibilityInfo existed. This change includes:
- A native Android implementation of AccessibilityInfo.
- JavaScript wrappers for the AccessibilityInfo module for both iOS and Android.
- UIExplorer changes to illustrate how to use AccessibilityInfo on iOS and Android.
- Documentation for the AccessibilityInfo APIs.
**Test plan (required)**
Tested the UIExplorer AccessibilityInfo example on iOS and Android with the screen reader both enabled and disabled.

Summary:
We want to pull RN API docs into exponent. So moving them into a module will be useful since we don't want to keep a duplicate list.
Run `npm start` in the `website` folder and see it still generates docs.
