Summary:
In the context of an app an image exists in three resolutions on the server: `thumb` (30px) `feed` (300px) `full` (900px). When looking at an individual item a user can come either from the feed, via a permalink or from other parts of the app. This allows a situation where the `feed` image might or might not already be loaded somewhere in the app. In the detail view I want to render `thumb` with a blur (to quickly display something), then the `feed` image if it exists to have something decent to display until `full` loads. However it is quite a waste to load the `feed` image if it isn't already in cache, and will slow down the time until `full` is loaded. It is possible to track the navigation from feed->detail and that the `feed` image has actually completed loading by the feed component however as component hierarchies grow this turns into quite a lot of prop passing and bad separation of concerns.

Summary:
We had rendering support for prev links, but we never had any previous links in our metadata. Only next links. This adds that support to both Guides and APIs.
**For guides**: `previous` is manually inserted into the metadata of the actual markdown file.
**For APIs/Components**: `previous` is established via code within `extractDocs.js`
> This isn't totally perfect. For example, the transition from the last guide to the first API/component has a next link from the guide, but not a previous link from the API since the way you get the previous links are different from guides and APIs. But this gets us really close.

Summary:
The new Handling Touches guide provides an overall view of how touches can be handled. It is meant to be a higher level discussion of basic touch handling, e.g. "how do I implement a button?". The existing Gesture Responder System guide has been moved to the end of the docs and is still available for reference when building custom gesture handlers.
