Jared Forsyth b2b89c0b68 add style inspector + more margin + styles
Summary:
- make overlay transparent to avoid obscuring the app
- show style in the inspector pane
- show margin+padding values, also width/height and abs position

@public

Test Plan:
Open the inspector somewhere, start selecting things. You should see correct
padding, margin, and dimentions values; in addition to all style properties
enumerated.

Alex Kotliarskyi cfa4b13472 [ReactNative] Element Inspector
Summary:
This adds new development feature to React Native that provides information
about selected element (see the demo in Test Plan).

This is how it works:

App's root component is rendered to a container that also has a hidden layer called
`<InspectorOverlay/>`. When activated, it shows full screen view and captures all
touches. On every touch we ask UIManager to find a view for given {x,y} coordinates.

Then, we use React's internals to find corresponding React component. `setRootInstance`
is used to remember the top level component to start search from, lmk if you have a
better idea how to do this. Given a component, we can climb up its owners tree
to provice more context on how/where the component is used.

In future we could use the `hierarchy` array to inspect and print their props/state.

Known bugs and limitations:
* InspectorOverlay sometimes receives touches with incorrect coordinates (wtf)
* Not integrated with React Chrome Devtools (maybe in followup diffs)
* Doesn't work with popovers (maybe put the element inspector into an `<Overlay/>`?)
