Mats Byrkeland 253b29dbd8 Add accessibilityHint for iOS (#18093)
Summary:
This adds the accessibilityHint for View, Text and Touchable* on iOS.
The accessibilityHint provides some more information about an element
when the accessibilityLabel is not enough.

The accessibilityHint is a core accessibility property on iOS.

From https://developer.apple.com/documentation/objectivec/nsobject/1615093-accessibilityhint:
> An accessibility hint helps users understand what will happen when they perform an action on the accessibility element when that result is not obvious from the accessibility label.

Related issue: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/14706

The npm scripts `test`, `flow`, `lint` and `prettier` are satisfied.

I added a couple of examples to the RNTester app. The Accessibility Inspector on Mac helps debugging accessibility stuff on a simulator, but it does not show the accessibilityHint. Therefore I tested the RNTester app on an iPhone 8 device using VoiceOver to verify the hint functionality. It works fine, and I've tested disabling and enabling "read hints" in the VoiceOver settings on the phone.
