Ramanpreet Nara 2d19037041 Rewrite Flow module parser
Summary:
This diff:
1. Simplifies the NativeModule schema Flow types.
2. Simplifies the NativeModule Flow parser, to accomodate the modified schema, and to reduce code duplication.

**Notes:**
- If the parser detects an unrecognized type within the context of parsing an Array's element type, it'll omit the `elementType` property of the `ArrayTypeAnnotation`. Details: T72031674. **Rationale:** Basically, when an array element type is supported, we use it in our generators. When it's unsupported, we ignore it. In the unsupported case, there's no point in trying to parse the Array element type, which is why I decided to omit the `elementType` property. Ideally, our NativeModule specs would never use unsupported types, in any context. This would allow us to always parse and use the elementType. However, that seems like a it could be a hefty migration: we have > 400 specs. Since, this isn't a battle we need to fight right now, I left a TODO at the relevant lines instead.
- The legacy codegen would generate structs for each object literal type in the file. In this re-implementation of the parser, I only insert into the aliases array when we detect a usage of a type-alias to an ObjectLiteral type annotation. With this decision, we won't be able to generate these unnecessary structs. This is good because we get rid of dead code. It's bad because it might make our migration to this codegen bit more difficult.

[WARNING] This diff produces flow failures that will be addressed in subsequent diffs.
