Spencer Ahrens 5ec382d1be New useWindowDimensions hook to replace most Dimensions usage
Summary:
Automatically provides and subscribes to dimension updates - super easy usage:
```
function MyComponent(props: Props) {
  const {width, height, scale, fontScale} = useWindowDimensions();
  return <Text ...
};
```

Only window for now - it's what people want 99% of the time, so we'll just shovel out a pit of success for them...

There are still cases where `Dimensions` is needed outside of React component render functions, like in GraphQL variables, so we need to keep the existing module.
