Return null when requesting constants for nonexistent View Managers in RN Android

Summary:
This diff changes the behavior of UIImplementation.resolveViewManager() to return null instead of throwing an exception when trying to find an unexistent viewManager during the computation of constants for view Managers.

The C++/JS code manages exceptions and null results when a view manager doesn't exists, this diff simplifies the way this method operates.
