* Improve autogen for reference docs including jsdoc support
Summary:
As part of improving the API and Component reference docs #8154 this pull request adds the following:
- jsdoc support for API docs. See the AlertIOS changes as an example.
- type definitions support and added to both API and Component docs. This is supported via react-docgen and jsdoc.
- better formatting of method properties (now shown in a table).
FYI, API and Component docs were previously generated in two different ways. Components were using react-docgen and that basically remains as-is. APIs were using custom parsing code and that's been switched to use a jsdoc parser + react-docgen as an option for typedefs (it could also use the jsdoc parser).
Two docs have been updated to showcase how we'd like the new docs to look:
- AlertIOS (API): showing method parameters, examples, typedefs, more details overall.
- Statusbar (Component): showing method parameters, typedefs, more details overall.
**Note**: To convert new API docs to use the new format, add `jsdoc` to the initial file comment. C

* Add react-native-web-player to core components docs
Summary:
This PR adds the interactive [React Native Web Player](http://dabbott.github.io/react-native-web-player/) to the docs. The web player is an embeddable iframe which runs React Native code using components from [react-native-web](https://github.com/necolas/react-native-web). For now, it's primarily for educational purposes, since only the basic components are implemented.
Some details:
- The iframe is loaded from MaxCDN using rawgit, locked down to a git tag.
- Asset paths (i.e. images) are resolved relative to `//facebook.github.io/react-native/`
- When viewed on mobile, it falls back to the syntax-highlighted code blocks.
The WebPlayer can be inserted into markdown by using the fences:
```
```ReactNativeWebPlayer

AppRegistry.registerComponent ...

Summary:
This diff refactors the view update process into two stages:
1. The `reactSubviews` array is set, whose order matches the order of the JS components and shadowView components, as specified by the UIManager.
2. The `didUpdateReactSubviews` method is called, which actually inserts the reactSubviews into the view hierarchy.
This simplifies a lot of the hacks we had for special-case treatment of subviews: In many cases we don't want to actually insert `reactSubviews` into the parentView, and we had a bunch of component-specific solutions for that (typically overriding all of the reactSubviews methods to store views in an array). Now, we can simply override the `didUpdateReactSubviews` method for those views to do nothing, or do something different.

Summary:
RCTShadowText currently explicitly defaults to black text color:
https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/d46ac11/Libraries/Text/RCTShadowText.m#L204
However, the UITextView used by RCTTextInput doesn't explicitly default to black text color.
This causes issues when RCTTextInput is in rich text editing mode (i.e. when the <TextInput> element uses child <Text> nodes to provide extra styling info) and the client doesn't provide us with any explicit color info. In this case, the following series of badness occurs:
1. -[UITextView attributedText] will return an attributed string without the NSColor property set.
2. -[RCTShadowText attributedString] will return an attributed string with NSColor equal to blackColor.
3. The `[_textView.attributedText isEqualToAttributedString:_pendingAttributedText]` check in -performPendingTextUpdate will fail and causes -[UITextView setText:] to be called.
4. -setText: clears the marked text range in the text view, which breaks multi-character autocomplete (e.g. QWERTY input methods for CJK languages).
The easiest fix for now is to just make sure RCTUITextView and RCTShadowText default to the same text color.

Summary:
The TextInput when configured with `multiline=true` has a minor issue due to which if the initial text doesn't fit in one line, the input won't span multiple lines. The root cause of the problem is that the `onChange` event is not fired for the initial render. This issue has been reported on open-source: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/481f560f64806ba3324cf722d6bf8c3f36ac74a5
This is an attempt to fix this problem by moving the logic to fire the event to the method that updates the content size. This way we can guarantee that anytime the content size changes we'll trigger the JS event.
The downside of this approach is that it's possible that multiple events get fired for a single character change. As per the comment that was removed, this was already happening when adding a character that when rendered, would increase the content size. By moving the code to the new place, this can happen more often (twice per character tapped). Let me know if you think this is an issue.
I don't know this code much, so please be careful reviewing. I'm happy to add more test cases I may have missed to the test plan :).

Summary:
Previously, only Text and Image could be nested within Text. Now, any

Previously, inline Images were supported by using iOS's built-in support
for rendering images with an NSAttributedString via NSTextAttachment.
However, NSAttributedString doesn't support rendering arbitrary views.
This change adds support for nesting views within Text by creating one
NSTextAttachment per inline view. The NSTextAttachments act as placeholders.
They are set to be the size of the corresponding view. After the text is
laid out, we query the text system to find out where it has positioned each
NSTextAttachment. We then position the views to be at those locations.

Summary:This fixes autocomplete for CJK text input by making sure that the `<Text>` nodes that JS controls to produce attributed text matches the text view's attributed text as much as possible. This is done by giving the disconnected `<Text>` child the same style as the `<TextInput>` parent.
This works because `-[RKTextView performPendingTextUpdate]` avoids setting the attributedText property on textView if the JS attributedText and textView attributedText are equal. This is important because setting attributedText on a text view clears the autocomplete state (markedText property) on a text view, breaking autocomplete for multistage input styles like CJK with a phonetic keyboard.

Summary:The default value for fontSizeMultiplier was zero. Although this was usually overriden with the correct value (typically 1.0), it sometimes wasn't resulting in a divide-by-zero in the text height calculation.
This diff corrects that bug by setting 1.0 as the default, and guarding against zero values being set.
I also fixed some suspicious logic that seemed to assume the result of BOOL && CGFloat would be 0 or the CGFloat value, which is true in JS but not in C (it would always be 0 or 1).

Summary:Set `Touchable.TOUCH_TARGET_DEBUG` to see colored borders/text to all touchables.
Different touchable types are color-coded differently.
If there is `hitSlop`, it will be rendered with an extra view with a dashed border of the same color (not visible on
Android because `overflow: 'hidden'`).
`Text` with `onPress` directly set is just colored.
Added some extra checks to `TouchableWithoutFeedback` since it could silently break if the child is not a native
component.
Also added better error output for `ensureComponentIsNative` so it's easier to track down issues. I really wish there
was a cleaner way to get the component and owner names consistently, it would help make good debug messages way easier
to write.

Summary:**Motivation**
Multiple instances of `Text` inside a `ListView` is a bad idea for the performance of the app.
When you create 1000 elements and you scroll through the list it is really slow and laggy because the `NSTextStorage`, which is the backbone of the `RCTText` element, will set more than 1,000 times and also the method `setNeedsDisplay` is called multiple times. This will causes huge memory problems and the app crashes.
With this commit I check in `RCTText` if the `NSTextStorage` differs from the old value. If yes then set it otherwise don't set the `NSTextStorage`. This will prevent to call `setNeedsDisplay` when not really needed.

This diff adds support for auto-resizing multiline text fields. This has been a long-requested feature, with several native solutions having been proposed (see https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/1229 and D2846915).
Rather than making this a feature of the native component, this diff simply exposes some extra information in the `onChange` event that makes it easy to implement this in pure JS code. I think this is preferable, since it's simpler, works cross-platform, and avoids any controversy about what the API should look like, or how the props should be named. It also makes it easier to implement custom min/max-height logic.

Summary:

React Native currently exposes the iOS layer shadow properties more-or-less directly, however there are a number of problems with this:
1) Performance when using these properties is poor by default. That's because iOS calculates the shadow by getting the exact pixel mask of the view, including any tranlucent content, and all of its subviews, which is very CPU and GPU-intensive.
2) The iOS shadow properties do not match the syntax or semantics of the CSS box-shadow standard, and are unlikely to be possible to implement on Android.
3) We don't expose the `layer.shadowPath` property, which is crucial to getting good performance out of layer shadows.
This diff solves problem number 1) by implementing a default `shadowPath` that matches the view border for views with an opaque background. This improves the performance of shadows by optimizing for the common usage case. I've also reinstated background color propagation for views which have shadow props - this should help ensure that this best-case scenario occurs more often.
For views with an explicit transparent background, the shadow will continue to work as it did before ( `shadowPath` will be left unset, and the shadow will be derived exactly from the pixels of the view and its subviews). This is the worst-case path for performance, however, so you should avoid it unless absolutely necessary. **Support for this may be disabled by default in future, or dropped altogether.**
For translucent images, it is suggested that you bake the shadow into the image itself, or use another mechanism to pre-generate the shadow. For text shadows, you should use the textShadow properties, which work cross-platform and have much better performance.
Problem number 2) will be solved in a future diff, possibly by renaming the iOS shadowXXX properties to boxShadowXXX, and changing the syntax and semantics to match the CSS standards.
Problem number 3) is now mostly moot, since we generate the shadowPath automatically. In future, we may provide an iOS-specific prop to set the path explicitly if there's a demand for more precise control of the shadow.

Summary:
public
Blending semitransparent pixels against their background is fairly a fairly expensive operation on mobile GPUs. To reduce blending, React Native has a system called "background color propagation", where the background color of parent views is automatically inherited by child views unless explicitly overridden. This means that translucent pixels can be blended directly against a known background color, avoiding the need to do this dynamically on the GPU.
In practice, this is only useful for views that do their own drawing, which is basically just `<Image/>` and `<Text/>` components, and for image components it only really matters when the image has an alpha component.
The automatic background propagation is a bit of a hack, and often does the wrong thing - for example if a view overflows its bounds, or if it overlaps a sibling, the background color will often be incorrect and need to be manually disabled. Because the only place that it provides a significant performance benefit is for text, this diff disables the behavior for everything except `<Text/>` nodes. It might still be useful for `<Image/>` nodes too, but looking through the examples in UIExplorer, the number of places where it does the wrong thing for images outnumbers the cases where it provides significant reduction in blending.
Note that this diff does not prevent you from eliminating blending on image components by manually setting an opaque background color, nor does it stop you from disabling color propagation on text components by manually setting a transparent background.
