Rick Hanlon 52b3105f65 Implement RCTWarn equivalent on Android
Summary:
## Overview
This diff is an RFC to port a logging feature from iOS to Android.

Changelog: [Internal]

## Motivation
On iOS we have the following log functions and behaviors available for logging native warnings and errors:

- **Warnings** (`RCTLogWarn`)
  - Log level 'warn' to console
  - Display warning in LogBox
- **Errors** (`RCTLogError`)
  - Log level 'error' to console
  - Display a native RedBox (needs converted to show a LogBox if available)
- **Logs**
  - We also have `RCTLog`, `RCTTrace`, `RCTAdvice`, `RCTInfo`, which just log to the console.

In Java, we have:
- **Warnings**
  - **None**, added in this diff
- **Errors** (`DevSupportManager.showNewJavaError`)
  - Log level 'error' to console with `FLog.e`
  - Display a native RedBox (needs converted to show a LogBox if available
- **Logs**
  - `ReactSoftException` (crashes the app??)
  - `ReactNoCrashSoftException` (only logs??)
  - Others?

## Details

This diff adds a method to pair with `RCTLogWarn`, `DevSupportManager.showNewJavaWarning`, which will log to the console and show a LogBox warning if LogBox is available.

## Concerns

I have a few concerns/questions about the state of logging on Android:
- Should/can we move all of the logging to it's own class, like how RCTLog works?
- Why does some logging happen on DevSupportManager and some in other classes?
- If we moved it all to it's own class, how could we access the reactContext to call the RCTLog JS module
