Nick Lockwood 060664fd3d Refactored module access to allow for lazy loading
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

Nick Lockwood c5b990f65f Added lightweight generic annotations
Summary: public

Added lightweight genarics annotations to make the code more readable and help the compiler catch bugs.

Fixed some type bugs and improved bridge validation in a few places.

Nick Lockwood a92f107712 Added RCTFileRequestHandler
Summary: @​public

We previously discovered that using an NSURLSessionDataTask to load local files is noticably less efficient than using regular filesystem methods.

This diff adds RCTFileRequestHandler as a replacement for RCTHTTPRequestHandler when loading local files. This reduces loading time when loading local files via XMLHttpRequest, as well as improving the performance for some image load requests.

Nick Lockwood 799168929c Unify XCAsset handling logic
Summary: @​public

This diff unifies the logic for detecting when images refer to XCAsset files into a single function (RCTXCAssetNameForURL) and uses it for both +[RCTConvert UIImage:] and RCTImageLoader.

I've also tightened the definition of XCAssets so that it only applies to images inside .car files, not any image inside the main bundle. This avoids using the +[UIImage imageNamed:] when not strictly necessary, which is desirable since that method is not thread-safe, and has undocumented caching behavior that is difficult to reason about.

Nick Lockwood f88bc3eb73 [ReactNative] Refactor RCTDataManager to support pluggable data source modules (RCTURLRequestHandlers)
Summary:
@public

This is a refactor of @philikon's original diff that decouples the dependencies between the Network and Image modules, and replaces RCTDataQueryExecutor with a more useful abstraction.

I've introduced the RCTURLRequestHandler protocol, which is a new type of bridge module used for loading data using an NSURLRequest. RCTURLRequestHandlers can be registered using RCT_EXPORT_MODULE() and are then available at runtime for use by the RCTDataManager, which will automatically select the appropriate handler for a given request based on the handler's self-reported capabilities.

The currently implemented handlers are:

- RCTHTTPRequestHandler - the standard open source HTTP request handler that uses NSURLSession
- RKHTTPRequestHandler - the internal FB HTTP request handler that uses FBNetworking
- RCTImageRequestHandler - a handler for loading local images from the iOS asset-library

Depends on D2108193

Test Plan:
- Internal apps still work
- OSS port still compiles, Movies app and a sample Parse app still work
- uploading image to Parse using the above code snippet works
- tested `FormData` with string and image parameters using http://www.posttestserver.com/
