Eric Rozell d9823d80bb Delete ShadowTreeRevision on background thread (#50997)
Summary:
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/50997

In some apps, we spend a non-trivial amount of time calling ShadowNode destructors on the UI thread.

A simple way to avoid stalling the UI thread is to move the `baseRevision_` instance to a data structure that is cleared on a background thread, so it's tree of ShadowNode shared_ptrs are released (and in most cases destroyed) on the background thread.

Rather than using std::thread, this change introduces the LowPriorityExecutor abstraction that should be supplied by host platforms. The implementation of this LowPriorityExecutor for each platform is as follows:
- iOS: uses dispatch_async to a low priority dispatch queue
- Android: uses a pthread with SCHED_OTHER and priority = 19

Moving the ShadowTreeRevision into a lambda capture and punting the lambda to the LowPriorityExecutor moves the destructor calls of the ShadowNodes to the host platform implementation of the LowPriorityExecutor.

This change is also guarded by a feature flag so we can keep an eye out for potential memory leaks.
