Summary: Now that web workers are just JSCExecutors, we can move forward with adding native module support. The means we need to supply the worker with a correct __fbBatchedBridgeConfig global so it can appropriately set up its JS MessageQueue. Unfortunately, native modules can't support multiple JS execution contexts out-of-the-box, so we need to whitelist those modules that actually can be referenced from a webworker. In order to do that, we add the supportsWebWorkers call in NativeModule and the SupportsWebWorkers annotation for JS modules. These add metadata to __fbBatchedBridgeConfig which allows us to create a new config with only those modules that support web workers.
