Subject: [PATCH] feat: linear gradient android (#45433)

Summary:
- Adds `background` prop that supports CSS's linear gradient. Later this can be extended to support various other gradients and possibly CSS's background image (less motivation as better solutions exists for image)
- Extended `CSSBackgroundDrawable` to draw Linear Gradient shader while preserving the border style support.
- Style supports JS object to specify `LinearGradient`, so it can support Animated libraries.

## Changelog:
[ANDROID] [ADDED] - linear gradient

<!-- Help reviewers and the release process by writing your own changelog entry.

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/45433

Test Plan:
- Check out `processBackground-test.js` for supported syntax testcases.
- Checkout examples added in `LinearGradientExample.js`

Although the PR is tested well but open to any changes/feedback on the approach taken.

iOS PR - https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/45433. Separated the PRs to keep it easier to review. Both PRs can be reviewed individually.
