Summary: FlatList only supports one viewability configuration and callback. This change extends FlatList and VirtualizedList to support multiple viewability configurations and corresponding callbacks.

Summary:
I just worked with a fellow dev who was switching to flatlist and ended up pretty surprised at the performance drop. The measurement had an exponential bridge saturation, causing flatlist to lose to a scrollview!
We knew something was up, but a little note in the docs would have helped.

Summary:
What existing problem does the pull request solve?
My motivation was to improve the documentation for ListView and ListViewDataSource because I always have trouble remembering how they work and the documentation was lacking an example for `cloneWithRowsAndSections`
My PR does the following:
* add a note about how headers and footers are rendered on a horizontal ListView
* fix a typo in an example
* clarify that the sectionIdentities should match the keys or array indexes of the data source
* add an example of cloneWithRowsAndSections
* add notes on the return values of `getRowCount` and `getRowAndSectionCount`
n/a; documentation only

Summary:
ListView does specify this: https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/listview.html#props
The link in ListView is generated by the documentation generator, but because the format of FlatList's props is different, it fails to catch it. Consider finding a way to specify this explicitly to the documentation generator (although this would be a bigger change).

Summary:
(prior to the scroll metrics being set up, or prior to the view being scrolled to the right location).
I'm using a StackNavigator to push a FlatList secondary screen, and it was causing extraneous rendering (item X ->item 0 -> item X)
I've logged inside the render functions of my `renderItem` function, and verified that it no longer attempts to render item 0 anymore. And I've verified from the `VirtualizedList.state` no longer renders a `{first: 0, last: 0}`, but persistently stays at `{first: X, last: X}` from start until things stabilize.

Summary:
Returning an object that doesn't have all the required properties from `getItemLayout` doesn't cause a flow error (maybe because we are using `createAnimatedComponent`) and caused ALL items to be rendered which caused perf issues that were hard to debug (typo lenght -> length -_-). This adds a simple warning in DEV mode using checkPropTypes.
**Test plan**
Tested in RNTester by passing a bad `getItemLayout` function.

Summary:
Curently FlatList does not implement setting native props directly like the old ListView did. This pr introduce the `setNativeProps` function which delegates to MetroListView or VirtualizedList. Thos don't have `setNativeProps` handling either, so, I delegated further to the respective ListView and Scroll components, which do have handling for it, thus, allowing to set the native props through FlatList.
Create a project with a FlatList and change a native property using `setNativeProps`:
```javascript
componentDidMount() {
setInterval(() => {
this.list.setNativeProps({ style: {backgroundColor:"white"} })
}, 1000)
}
render() {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<FlatList ref={component => this.list = component}
style={{backgroundColor:"black"}}
data={[{key: 'a'}, {key: 'b'}]}
renderItem={({item}) => <Text>{item.key}</Text>} />
</View>
)
}

Summary:
When rendering a large list without a getItemLayout (ie SectionList, where it's hard to compute), it freaks out and attempt to render them all, starving the rendering/layout engine from computing the size (and more accurately figurnge out how few it actually should render.)
Before this change, with <FlatList maxToRenderPerBatch={5} data={objectOfLengthN} />, I essentially saw it doing:
```
{first: 0, last: 0}
{first: 0, last: 5}
{first: 0, last: 10}
....
{first: 0, last: N}
```
(no more hiPri renders since all elements have been rendered)
(actually renders and lays out all N objects, and computes their sizes)
(realizes that it doesn't need to show all N for my current screen size and row size)
```{first: 0, last: 55}```
After this change, that whole first part where it keeps incrementing `last` to try to "keep up with the scrolling" disappears.

This is necessary to fix an extraneous warning when a VirtualizedList is constructed on the first frame.
On the first frame, the dt is huge (ie, time since epoch).
On the second frame (which may legitimately be slow as a result of a lot to render), it will then assume there were two consecutive slow frames, and print a warning:
"VirtualizedList: You have a large list that is slow to update..."

Summary:
Fixes https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/13784
The section footer was only rendered with the last item of the section. However, that meant in sections where no items were rendered, no section footer would be rendered. This patch makes sure that when there are no items the section footer is rendered with the section header in addition to adding tests asserting the existance of section footers in empty lists.
One potential point of contention is whether or not a section separator (as defined by the `SectionSeparatorComponent` prop to `<SectionList>`) should be rendered in an empty list. I did not include a section separator for empty lists, but let me know if you think one should be included. See the test plan below for an image of an empty section rendered without a section separator.
I was also running into a lint error, `no-alert`, in `SectionListExample.js` around line 135 that blocked me from publishing. This error looks to be triggered when the `alert()` global function is called, so to fix the error I added an import for the `Alert` module and called the `alert()` function on that module.
To help debug the `scrollToLocation()` behavior that was modified as a part of this PR I added three buttons (can be seen in the test plan image) which scroll to arbitrary points in the list.

Summary:
This is a simple bugfix. `_updateViewableItems` expects the `data` prop, as it calls `getItemCount` on it. Without this, `onViewableItemsChanged` updates twice for each scroll position, once from `_onScroll` with the incorrect results, and once from `_updateCellsToRender` with the correct results. This means the callback nigh-on unusable.
I simply logged the results of `onViewableItemsChanged` and made sure they were correct.

In a FlatList, I wanted to show some placeholder when my data is empty (while keeping eventual Header/Footer/RefreshControl).
A way around this issue would be to do something like adding a `ListHeaderComponent` that checks if the list is empty, like so:
```js
ListHeaderComponent={() => (!data.length ? <Text style={styles.noDataText}>No data found</Text> : null)}
```
But I felt it was not easily readable as soon as you have an actual header.
This PR adds a `ListEmptyComponent` that is rendered when the list is empty.
I added tests for VirtualizedList, FlatList and SectionList and ran `yarn test -- -u`. I then checked that the snapshots changed like I wanted.
I also tested this against one of my project, though I had to manually add my changes because the project is on RN 0.43.
Here are the docs screenshots:

Summary:
The main reason to use **VirtualizedList** is to set the `getItem` and `getItemCount` props, so having default values for these props makes things error prone.
* In **VirtualizedList**, changed the `getItem` and `getItemCount` props from optional to required, and removed default values.
* Ensured that implementing classes **FlatList** and **SectionVirtualizedList** are always passing these props.
* Updated VirtualizedList-test.js accordingly.

Summary:
- If the initial render doesn't extend past `onEndReachedThreshold` it is likely that onEndReached won't get called until scroll, which can be a bad experience if the `initialNumToRender` is very close to the viewport height. This happens because when `onContentSizeChange`, `onLayout` may not have fired yet so we don't know what the `visibleLength` is. Fix is to also call `maybeCallOnEndReached` in `_onLayout` as well.
- We have an optimization that does hi-pri render window updates when scrolling quickly and the content reaches the edge of the viewport, but there is also an important case where the user has scrolled to the end of the content and is waiting for a network response. Once the new data comes in, we want to render it ASAP because the user is waiting for it. To solve this we refactor our scheduling code into a shared function that always checks if it should be a hi-pri update instead of just in `_onScroll`.
