Nishan b99675d78a feat: linear gradient ios (#45434)
Summary:
- Adds `background` prop that supports CSS's linear gradient. Later this can be extended to support various other gradients and possibly CSS's background image (less motivation as better solutions exists for image)
- Uses `CAGradientlayer` to draw Linear Gradient layers. So it is GPU optimised under the hood.
- Style supports JS object to specify `LinearGradient`, so it can support Animated libraries.

## Changelog:
[IOS] [ADDED] - linear gradient
