Summary:
This is a long story. Awhile ago awesome Nick Lockwood (Hey Nick!) introduced a special optimization for ReactNative rendering layer called "inherited background color".
He described this idea in D2811031:
>>>
Blending semitransparent pixels against their background is fairly a fairly expensive operation on mobile GPUs. To reduce blending, React Native has a system called "background color propagation", where the background color of parent views is automatically inherited by child views unless explicitly overridden. This means that translucent pixels can be blended directly against a known background color, avoiding the need to do this dynamically on the GPU.
In practice, this is only useful for views that do their own drawing, which is basically just <Image/> and <Text/> components, and for image components it only really matters when the image has an alpha component.
The automatic background propagation is a bit of a hack, and often does the wrong thing - for example if a view overflows its bounds, or if it overlaps a sibling, the background color will often be incorrect and need to be manually disabled. Because the only place that it provides a significant performance benefit is for text, this diff disables the behavior for everything except <Text/> nodes. It might still be useful for <Image/> nodes too, but looking through the examples in UIExplorer, the number of places where it does the wrong thing for images outnumbers the cases where it provides significant reduction in blending.
However. I think it is time to remove it. Why? There are several reasons:
* It drastically complicates rendering layer. DRASTICALLY. In many many unrelated places (try search for "backgroundColor"!);
* This mechanism is totally non-conceptual to RN and it prevents us to implement some new possible render optimization that we plan to do;
* This adopted only by two components now: Text and ART;
* This is not a significant performance drain anymore; from iOS 6 even UILabel has clear background color by default.
* I doubt that it even works now because `drawRect:` in Text component does not call super method.
So, this diff just turns this feature off for Text. If all performance metrics are neutral, I will delete this mechanism.
Peace.

Summary:
This feature was disabled for multiline textinputs in D3528202 ... seems without a good reason.
The broken autoscroll-to-cursor feature is terribly harmful and counter-intuitive in ALL cases.
I also add a contentSize tracking in the example app to make sure that it is unaffected by this change.

Now intrinsic content size of <Image> is implemented natively on iOS and now it is actually
`intrinsicContentSize`, not just overrided `height` and `width` styles (which was incorrect and hacky).
This change also removes support of nested content inside <Image>.
This is a first commit in the row where we improve <Image> implementation.

you can temporary use `DeviceInfo.isIPhoneX_deprecated`.
You can, but you should not. Please consider use new <SafeAreaView>.
This prop was initially named so ugly because we are trying to discourage the community to use it.
However, we understand that sometimes we need a "band-aid" to prevent our apps bleeding.

Summary:
This is required for D5874536, wherein I'll be introducing direction-aware props for borders.
When a view's border changes due to a direction update, only the frames of its children update. Therefore, only the children `UIView`s get a chance to be re-rendered. This is incorrect because the view that's had its borders changed also needs to re-render. So, I keep a track of the layout direction in a property on all shadow views. Then, when I update that prop within `applyLayoutNode`, I push shadow views into the `viewsWithNewFrames` set.

Summary:
As I was working on mimicking iOS animations for my ongoing work with `react-navigation`, one task I had was to match the "push from right" animation that is common in UINavigationController.
I was able to grab the exact animation values for this animation with some LLDB magic, and found that the screen is animated using a `CASpringAnimation` with the parameters:
- stiffness: 1000
- damping: 500
- mass: 3
After spending a considerable amount of time attempting to replicate the spring created with these values by CASpringAnimation by specifying values for tension and friction in the current `Animated.spring` implementation, I was unable to come up with mathematically equivalent values that could replicate the spring _exactly_.
After doing some research, I ended up disassembling the QuartzCore framework, reading the assembly, and determined that Apple's implementation of `CASpringAnimation` does not use an integrated, numerical animation model as we do in Animated.spring, but instead solved for the closed form of the equations that govern damped harmonic oscillation (the differential equations themselves are [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_oscillator#Damped_harmonic_oscillator), and a paper describing the math to arrive at the closed-form solution to the second-order ODE that describes the DHO is [here](http://planetmath.org/sites/default/files/texpdf/39745.pdf)).
Though we can get the currently implemented RK4 integration close by tweaking some values, it is, the current model is at it's core, an approximation. It seemed that if I wanted to implement the `CASpringAnimation` behavior _exactly_, I needed to implement the analytical model (as is implemented in `CASpringAnimation`) in `Animated`.
We add three new optional parameters to `Animated.spring` (to both the JS and native implementations):
- `stiffness`, a value describing the spring's stiffness coefficient
- `damping`, a value defining how the spring's motion should be damped due to the forces of friction (technically called the _viscous damping coefficient_).
- `mass`, a value describing the mass of the object attached to the end of the simulated spring
Just like if a developer were to specify `bounciness`/`speed` and `tension`/`friction` in the same config, specifying any of these new parameters while also specifying the aforementioned config values will cause an error to be thrown.
~Defaults for `Animated.spring` across all three implementations (JS/iOS/Android) stay the same, so this is intended to be *a non-breaking change*.~
~If `stiffness`, `damping`, or `mass` are provided in the config, we switch to animating the spring with the new damped harmonic oscillator model (`DHO` as described in the code).~
We replace the old RK4 integration implementation with our new analytic implementation. Tension/friction nicely correspond directly to stiffness/damping with the mass of the spring locked at 1. This is intended to be *a non-breaking change*, but there may be very slight differences in people's springs (maybe not even noticeable to the naked eye), given the fact that this implementation is more accurate.
The DHO animation algorithm will calculate the _position_ of the spring at time _t_ explicitly and in an analytical fashion, and use this calculation to update the animation's value. It will also analytically calculate the velocity at time _t_, so as to allow animated value tracking to continue to work as expected.
Also, docs have been updated to cover the new configuration options (and also I added docs for Animated configuration options that were missing, such as `restDisplacementThreshold`, etc).
Run tests. Run "Animated Gratuitous App" and "NativeAnimation" example in RNTester.

Summary:
When we convert nested <Text> components to Spannable object we must enforce the order of spans somehow,
otherwise we will have Spannable object with unpredictable order of spans, which will produce unpredictalbe text layout.
We can do it only using `Spannable.SPAN_PRIORITY` feature because Spannable objects do not maintain the order of spans internally.
We also have to fix this to implement autoexpandable <TextInput>.

Summary:
**PR changes**
The RCTText class originally overrode the accessibilityLabel and returned the raw text of the class ignoring if the accessibilityLabel was set explicitly in code.
Example:
<Text accessibilityLabel="Example"> Hello World </Text> // returns "Hello World" instead of "Example" for the accessibility label
My update checks if the super's accessibilityLabel is not nil and returns the value else it returns the raw text itself as a default to mirror what a UIKit's UILabel does. The super's accessibilityLabel is nil if the accessibilityLabel is not ever set in code. I don't check the length of the label because if the value was set to an empty purposely then it will respect that and return whatever was set in code.
With the new changes:
<Text accessibilityLabel="Example"> Hello World </Text> // returns "Example" for the accessibilityLabel
This change doesn't support nested <Text> components with both accessibilityLabel's value set respectively. The parent's value will return.
Example:
// returns "Example" instead of "Example Test" for the accessibility label
<Text accessibilityLabel="Example">
Hello
<Text accessibilityLabel="Test">
World
</Text>
</Text>
The workaround is just to set the only the parent view's accessibilityLabel with the label desired for it and all its nested views or just not nest the views if possible.
I believe a bigger change would be needed to support accessibility for nested views, for now the changes I have made should satisfy the requirements.
