Summary:
Modules which call JS methods directly, or use `sendDeviceEventWithName:`, can trigger effects in JS without ever being referenced from the JS code. This breaks some assumptions in my earlier diff about when modules can be lazily loaded.
Pending a better solution, I've put explicit `init` methods in these modules to ensure they are eagerly initialized (the downside to this is that they'll still be initialized even if they are never used).

Summary:
Previously, if a module implemented `setBridge:` we assumed that it needs to be initialised on the main thread. This assumption was not really warranted however, and it was a barrier to deferring module initialization.
This diff tweaks the rules so that only modules that override `init` or `constantsToExport**` are assumed to require main thread initialization, and others can be created lazily when they are first used.
WARNING: this will be a breaking change to any 3rd party modules that are assuming `setBridge:` is called on the main thread. Those modules should be rewritten to move any code that requires the main thread into `init` or `constantsToExport` instead.
`**` We will also be examining whether `constantsToExport` can be done lazily, but for now any module that uses it will still be created eagerly when the bridge starts up.

Summary:Hey,
I have been going through some UIAlert related issues in the repo trying to fix them, and one of the steps to start reproducing them was to put `Alert.alert()` call right inside `componentDidMount`.
However, I've started noticing strange bugs as long as I didn't set 1second timeout.
Started digging in deeper, and I've noticed the `UIAlert` gets attached to the `RCTWindow()` mainViewController.
However - since RCTDevLoadingView adds a `keyWindow`, that is the window that will be returned at the time of the call and the window `UIAlert` will be attached to.
To visualise that better - you can take a look at these two frames when app is being loaded:

Summary:If you're working on an app that needs to support landscape, reloading the app causes the iPhone simulator to reset its orientation to portrait every time the `RCTDevLoadingView` shows up. This is because it sets the root VC to `RCTModalHostViewController`, which currently supports only portrait orientations on iPhone. Changing the root view to a vanilla `UIViewController` fixes the issue.
**Steps to Reproduce**
1. Create a blank RN project: `react-native init RNTest`
2. Open it up and run it.
3. Rotate to landscape `Cmd+Right Arrow`.
4. Reload by pressing `Cmd+R`.
**Expected**
The simulator stays in landscape mode.
**Actual**
The simulator goes back to portrait.

Summary: When rotating on iPad, the dev loading view just looks clowny since it doesn't rotate properly.

Introduce a header bar similar to the one shown when loading the bundle to indicate that the packager server is processing an HMR update. Hook into HMR events to show this bar when appropriate.

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

Summary:
I'd like this ability as this has a tendency to get in the way of some of the more complex UI pieces I have. Disabling RCT_DEV entirely is too much for me.
