Summary:D3092867 / 1d3db4c5dc caused deadlock when chrome debugging was turned on, so it was reverted as D3128586 / 144dc30661.
The reason: I was calling `[_bridge dispatchBlock:^{ [self flushEventsQueue]; } queue:RCTJSThread];` from main thread and expecting it will `dispatch_async` to another,
since a held lock was being accessed the dispatched block and was released after the dispatch.
Turns out `RCTWebSocketExecutor` (which is used when chrome debugger is turned on) executes all blocks dispatched this way to `RCTJSThread` synchronously on the main thread.
This resulted in a deadlock. The "dispatched" block was trying to acquired lock which held by the same thread in the dispatching phase.
A fix for this is pretty simple. We will release the lock before dispatching the block.
However it's not super straightforward to see this won't introduce some race condition in a case with two threads where we would end up with events not being processed.
My thinking why that shouldn't happen goes like this: We could get in a bad state if `flushEventsQueue` would run on JS thread while `sendEvent:` is running on MT.
(I don't have a specific example how, maybe it's not possible. However when I show this case is safe we know we are good.)
The way how locking is setup in this diff the only possible scenario where these two threads would execute in these methods concurrently is JS holding the lock and MT going to enqueue another block on JS thread (since that's outside of "locked" zone).
But this scenarion can never happen, since if MT is about to enqueue the block on JS thread it means there cannot be a not yet fully executed block on JS thread.
Therefore nothing bad can happen.
So this diff brings back the reverted diff and adds to it the fix for the deadlock.

Summary:Previously, (mostly touch and scroll) event handling on iOS worked in a hybrid way:
* All incoming coalesce-able events would be pooled and retrieved by js thread in the beginning of its frame (all of this happens on js thread)
* Any non-coalesce-able event would be immediately dispatched on a js thread (triggered from main thread), and if there would be pooled coalesce-able events they would be immediately dispatched at first too.
This behavior has a subtle race condition, where two events are produced (on MT) in one order and received in js in different order.
See https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/5246#issuecomment-198326673 for further explanation of this case.
The new event handling is (afaik) what Android already does. When an event comes we add it into a pool of events and dispatch a block on js thread to inform js there are events to be processed. We keep track of whether we did so, so there is at most one of these blocks waiting to be processed. When the block is executed js will process all events that are in pool at that time (NOT at time of enqueuing the block).
This creates a single way of processing events and makes it impossible to process them in different order in js.
The tricky part was making sure we don't coalesce events across gestures/different scrolls. Before this was achieved by knowing that gestures and scrolls start/end with non-coalesce-able event, so the pool never contained events that shouldn't be coalesced together. That "assumption" doesn't hold now.
I've re-added `coalescingKey` and made touch and scroll events use it to prevent coalescing events of the same type that should remain separate in previous diffs (see dependencies).
On top of it it decreases latency in events processing in case where we get only coalesce-able events. Previously these would be processed at begging of the next js frame, even when js would be free and could process them sooner. This delay is done, since they would get processed as soon as the enqueued block would run.
To illustrate this improvement let's look at these two systraces.

Summary:
Currently only scroll events are send through `sendEvent`, and all of them are can be coalesced. In future (further in the stack) touch events will go through there as well, but they won't support coalescing.
In order to ensure js processes touch and scroll events in the same order as they were created, we will flush the coalesced events when we encounter one that cannot be coalesced.

Summary:
I want to use the `RCTEvent` protocol for touch events as well. That's why I'm removing not very well defined `body` property and replacing it with `arguments` method, which will return an array that will be passed directly to the js call.
I think this makes sense because there is no unified arguments format for all events and and the called js method (`moduleDotMethod`) is already event specific.
This way touch events and scroll events can result in calling a completely different js function with a completely different arguments (what they indeed currently do).

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:
Our events all follow a common pattern, so there's no good reason why the configuration should be so verbose. This diff eliminates that redundancy, and gives us the freedom to simplify the underlying mechanism in future without further churning the call sites.
