Changelog:
[General][Added] Add support for "togglebutton" accessibilityRole
# Context
The role for ToggleButton, which is needed on Android to implement toggle buttons correctly, is not currently supported.
# What does this diff do?
Adds support for accessibilityRole `"togglebutton"`.
On Android, this maps to class `"Android.widget.ToggleButton"`.
iOS does not have an equivalent trait for togglebutton, so I set it to be the same as setting `accessibilityRole="button"` for iOS.
# Caveats - checked vs selected
It seems to me like this role currently requires that you set `accessibilityState={{checked: true/false}}`. The behavior is strange when setting `selected` state, I think because on Android ToggleButtons are meant to use `checked` to indicate toggled on/off.
This is tricky because typically on iOS if you have a toggle button, you would use `selected` instead of `checked`, so RN users are likely to mess this up.
Possible solutions:
1. document that you should use `checked` state on Android for toggle buttons (and maybe throw a warning if someone passes in `selected`).
2. have RN ignore it if someone passes in accessibilityState `selected`, if this role is used.
3. Have RN convert passed in `selected` state to `checked` on the Android side.

Summary:
We added the accessibilityState property as a more semantically rich way for components to describe information about their state to accessibility services. This PR removes the old accessibilityStates property.

Summary:
Assistive technologies use the accessibility role of a component to tell the disabled user what the component is, and provide hints about how to use it. Many important roles do not have analog AccessibilityTraits on iOS. This PR adds many critical roles, such as editabletext, checkbox, menu, and switch to name a few.
Accessibility states are used to convey the current state of a component. This PR adds several critical states such as checked, unchecked, on and off.
[general] [change] - Adds critical accessibility roles and states.

Summary:
Closes: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/24016
React Native 0.57 introduced cross-platform `accessibilityRole` and `accessibilityStates` props in order to replace `accessibilityComponentType` (for android) and `accessibilityTraits` (for iOS). With #24095 `accessibilityRole` and `accessibilityStates` will increase, receiving more options, which seems to be a good moment to remove deprecated props.
Remove deprecated `accessibilityComponentType` and `accessibilityTraits` props.
[General] [Removed] - Remove accessibilityComponentType and accessibilityTraits props
