    A Better ListView for React Native

I have a proposal for some new APIs, and a first draft on an implementation (first diff: D4412469). Salient points on the new APIs:


Two easy-to-use components: FlatList and SectionList. I have found that separating the section API out makes things a lot cleaner for both cases.


One shared underlying implementation, VirtualizedList, which has an API similar to react-virtualized and uses getter functions to be very flexible and supports any kind of data structure such as a plain array or an immutable list.


Naming adjustments to make it horizontal agnostic, e.g. "Item" instead of "Row".
