Focus text input on accessibility tap

Summary:
There's an issue with TextInput on Android where if you have TalkBack enabled, double tapping doesn't focus the text input. It turns out this is because we ignore all focus events that aren't from JS in ReactEditText. This diff makes an exception for the accessibility click event.

I think this should also fix https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/17624
