Adam Comella e40d1a1065 iOS: Introduce API for moving screen reader's focus 
Summary:
This change introduces an API, `setAccessibilityFocus`, which moves the screen reader's focus to the passed in element. This causes VoiceOver to announce the element and draw a focus rectangle around it.

Similar functionality is already available in RN Android through the `sendAccessibilityEvent` method. Here's an example of what exists today in RN Android:

```
RCTUIManager.sendAccessibilityEvent(
  node,
  8 /* TYPE_VIEW_FOCUSED */);
```

Called `setAccessibilityFocus` on a couple of elements to verify that focus does indeed move when VoiceOver is enabled. Additionally, my team is using this change in our app.
