Summary: TL;DR: Setting `autoComplete` will allow the system to suggest autofill options for the `<TextInput>` component. Android Oreo introduced the AutoFill Framework, for secure communication between an app and autofill services (e.g. Password managers). When using `<TextInput>` on Android Oreo+, the system already tries to autofill (based on heuristics), but there is no way to set configuring options or disable. The quick solution would be to just add the same Android attributes (`autofillHints` & `importantForAutofill`) in React Native TextInput, but that doesn't bond well with the cross-platform nature of the library. Introduces an `autoComplete` prop based on HTML's `autocomplete` attribute, mapping to Android `autofillHints` & `importantForAutofill` and serving as a proper placeholder for autofill/autocomplete in other platforms: Also gives you the ability to disable autofill by setting autocomplete="off".
