Summary:
Remove obsolete supportLibVersion - no longer required with AndroidX
Removing the `supportLibVersion` variable that was used in `app/build.gradle` to suffix version numbers on android support libraries.
As react-native moved to androidX with the release of `0.60` this is no longer necessary.

Summary:
packagingOptions.pickFirst is unreliable that we could not specify which library will be used.
If user have other third party libraries, the story is more complicated.
From the framework point of view, it is better to drop the pickFirst.
In jsc-android 241213.1.0, we did two things:
1. Remove libc++_shared.so in AAR to prevent the conflict with RN.
2. Build by NDK r17c, which aligned with current RN NDK version.
In this commit, I also revert the pickFirst for JSC.
pickFirst JSC also makes upgrade JSC unreliable.
Currently a lot of user report JSC crash issues, those crash issues may relate to JIT and hard to reproduce in-house.
My plan is to make sure user could choose another JSC build easier,
i.e. only to `yarn add 'jsc-android@latest'`.
We could then propose some experimented JSC build for user to check
if the build could help them to fix the crash issue.
[Android] [Fixed] - Remove unreliable packagingOptions.pickFirst for libc++_shared.so and libjsc.so
NOTE that this may not need to add the changelog, as RN 0.59 does not have pickFirst.
This will also reduce a breaking change for upgrade from RN 0.59 or before.

Summary:
By default, the text color is `#000000` on iOS and different on Android, e.g. `#808080`, depending on the manufactorer.
This PR changes it so that newly created projects all have the text color `#000000` by default on both iOS and Android.
The argument for this is to make the app by default be more consistent between platforms.
Expo also does this: https://github.com/expo/expo/blob/master/android/expoview/src/main/res/values/styles.xml#L31
---
For context and for your consideration, I have started a discussion here with the topic of whether React Native should try to use OS defaults or be consistent between platforms:
https://github.com/react-native-community/discussions-and-proposals/issues/121
[Android] [Changed] - New projects have a `#000000` by default.

Summary:
In origin approach, we packed libjsc.so inside react-native.aar and it is difficult for user to choose different JSC variants. E.g., [the Intl supported version](https://github.com/react-native-community/jsc-android-buildscripts#international-variant).
This change list allows application to determine JSC versions or variants by npm/yarn package.
There is a |useIntlJsc| flag in build.gradle, it will use the same JSC version but with Intl support.
`yarn add jsc-android@canary`
[Android] [Changed] - Allow application to select different JSC variants
**MIGRATION**
Note that there are some changes in build.gradle.
Existing application needs to change their android/build.gradle and android/app/build.gradle.
Hopefully, the rn-diff-purge should handle the case well.

Summary:
This diff removes the `WebView` export from React Native. Internally, we are requiring `WebView` directly now and externally people will have to use the community maintained module. This diff does not yet move the WebView files from the repo, this will happen in a follow-up.
Note that I had to remove a test for Cookies that displayed data in a WebView. I don't think there is an easy way to retain this (debugging) information that likely very few people ever take a look at so I think it is fine.

This PR is trying to improve Android Network Security configuration introduced in https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/84572c4051f11f68ddf0928d2c3df5850ae15491. I found that Android merges all manifest files into a single manifest file when building an app, so this PR provides AndroidManifest.xml with network security config in debug folder, that will be used only for debug builds. Also the network security configuration will be applied to only app that target API 28. Moved security config file to xml-v28, so that it'll only visible to API 28 and above.

Summary:
Running *lint* on RN found that there are some Java 8 features used without specifying Java 8 compatibility in projects. This PR adds Java 8 compatibility and fixes errors caused by Java 8 feature use. I suspend that it may be cause of many failures on older Androids, but also found that many modules/packages switched to and require Java 8.

Summary: This diff moves the React Native template from `local-cli/templates/HelloWorld` to `template`. Keeping it in the react-native repo will allow us to make changes to the template and version it together with react-native, instead of moving it out into a separate repo and trying to keep the template in sync with RN.
