This fixes an issue that would have arised once our number of blog posts passed 10, as the prev/next links in the footer were using the wrong path ("jest/", instead of "react-native/").
I also capped the number of recent blog posts to 10 in the sidebar.

Summary:
Several blog and sharing improvements are included in this update.
* A larger default preview image is used when a blog post or doc is shared on social media as recommended by [best practices](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/best-practices#images).
* Follow other Facebook Sharing best practices such as associating the site with a Facebook Page (React) and a Page Admin (121800083 is my fbid, and I am an admin for the React page).
* If the shared blog post contains a hero image, use it as a share preview image.
* Use actual doc content instead of generic site description when sharing docs.
* Update existing hero images to use the larger recommended size.
* Add titles to each author's byline.
* Add author's avatar to their byline.
* Add Twitter Card support.
* Link to individual blog posts from the title and hero image in the blog index.

* BlogPageLayout (blog index) - Only excerpts from each article are now shown, as opposed to the entire article.
* BlogPost - Broken up into headers, footers. Reorder header so that the blog post title is closer to the content. Adds support for hero images (visible from the blog index). Adds Facebook, Twitter social share buttons. List items are properly spaced now.

Summary:
We've been getting a lot of documentation PRs opened against `0.29-stable`, `0.30-stable`, and so on, instead of `master`. This is because our doc site is also based on RN release cuts, so clicking on the "Edit on GitHub" links on a document will take you to the markdown source for that release branch instead of the latest doc on `master`.
See #9095 for an example of such a PR.
In this PR we edit the link to say View on GitHub. Though it may not prevent PRs from being opened against a release branch, removing the "Edit" CTA may help in this regard.

Summary:
We did a survey prior to the doc lockdown to get an idea of what we should focus on. Now we have a yes/no style survey to ensure that we met the user needs when it came to our start of improving the docs.
This diff adds the survey link to the bottom of each page. And we will cherry-pick it into 0.29 as well, which will be the first official release with the new doc content
> **NOTE**: The content via the links in this survey will not be valid until 0.29 is actually released. So I have not enabled the questions for the survey until then.

Summary:
Relates to #8203 for AsyncStorage API update.
- Added a small example to the intro section.
- Added jsdoc format tags to show up class description, parameter descriptions.
- Word-smithed many of the method descriptions.
I also made a bug fix to the autogen. It wasn't handling the scenario where a method may have no parameters.
**Test plan (required)**
Wrote a small sample app to test the snippet added to the intro section.

Summary:
Right now the embedded simulator is always at the top right corner.
This can be confusing as to what code is associated with the simulation.
So, move the simulator next to its actual code.
This has the added benefit of allowing us to use the React Native
Web Player for the simpler examples in the components.

Summary:
As part of improving the API and Component reference docs #8154 this pull request adds the following:
- jsdoc support for API docs. See the AlertIOS changes as an example.
- type definitions support and added to both API and Component docs. This is supported via react-docgen and jsdoc.
- better formatting of method properties (now shown in a table).
FYI, API and Component docs were previously generated in two different ways. Components were using react-docgen and that basically remains as-is. APIs were using custom parsing code and that's been switched to use a jsdoc parser + react-docgen as an option for typedefs (it could also use the jsdoc parser).
Two docs have been updated to showcase how we'd like the new docs to look:
- AlertIOS (API): showing method parameters, examples, typedefs, more details overall.
- Statusbar (Component): showing method parameters, typedefs, more details overall.
**Note**: To convert new API docs to use the new format, add `jsdoc` to the initial file comment. C

Summary:The website now displays public methods on components. This was implemented mostly in react-docgen via #66. This adds a <Method> component that is used by the component and API doc pages to display documentation for a method.
It also adds some missing documentation and tweak some existing one to integrate with this feature. I also prefixed some component methods with an '_' so they don't show up in the doc.
**Test plan (required)**
Tested every component page locally to make sure the methods doc was displayed properly.
Tested an API page to make sure it still worked properly.

Summary:Current docs show an Appetize.io example for AlertIOS doc. This pull request adds that feature across all applicable iOS and Android docs. So if a doc has an example in UIExplorer, it shows up in the top right and clicking to Play should navigate to the relevant example.
The changes here also touched NavigationExperimental to fix a typo that prevented iOS deep link from working. Code was also added to help support Android deep links but there's an outstanding issue (a race condition) around how Android deep links trigger getInitialURL in NavigationRootContainer that prevents this from fully working.
For adding the docs, a few things were done outside this pull request:
1/ Release builds for UIExplorer Android and iOS apps were uploaded to Appetize.io. The Appetize.io info (public key to run the build) is embedded in the docs.
2/ The iOS build was generated by making a few changes to get a local bundle. The current UIExplorer set up doesn't support "react-native run-ios".
Regarding the Appetize bu

Summary:This makes the `refreshing` prop more 'controlled'. Before forgetting to set the refreshing prop in the onRefresh callback would make the js and native `refreshing` prop get out of sync and make the RefreshControl stop refreshing properly (see #5839).
I also added a simple usage example and a note about the refreshing prop in the doc.
There was also a small bug in the doc generation code that made the array of color show as [[object Object]] instead of [color] so I fixed that too.
** Test plan**
Tested using the UIExplorer example on iOS and Android. Not setting the `refreshing` prop to true in the `onRefresh` function should cause the RefreshControl to stop refreshing immediately and continue working properly after.

Summary:
- Now using a table layout. While having the link inside of the header worked well in the browser, the search API would put "Edit in GitHub" as part of the title -_-
- Instead of putting the link inside of every section like Props, put it on the page header. This makes it less repetetitive and also works on API pages where the link was absent before
- Remove "Run this example" link as there's a giant Run this example sidebar already.

Summary:
To allow smoother API changes for users we often deprecate props and keep them around for a while before removing them. Right now it is all done manually, this adds a consistent way to show a warning when using a deprecated prop.
This also adds a deprecation warning of the website generated from the deprecatedPropType.

The `Animated` module exposes a lot of functionality, including internal
classes. This diff extracts properties and classes from modules and renders them
recursively.
This also adds `Animated` to the autogen docs now that they more capable,
although it needs way more docblocks and such which will come later.
We are annotating platform-specific props with a special @platform tag in the docblocks. This pull request adds a little [ios] tag before the name and sorts the props such as generic ones are before platform-specific ones.
Currently all the pages have the same title, making it hard to
tell which page is while when user has multiple tabs opened.
This adds 'title' to Site so a page title can be passed in and
