In preparation for "pinch to zoom" support in desktop streams on mobile, make
certain Views not intervene in touch event handling. While the modification is
necessary for "pinch to zoom" which is coming later, it really makes sense for
the modified Views to not be involved in touching because they're used to aid
layout and/or animations and are to behave to the user as if they're not there.
Android uses a SurfaceView to render video, which is not quite a View, so the
fade-in animation (which varies the opacity) doesn't work.
Instead, add an opaque black view covering the video, which transitions to
transparent. This creates much smoother transitions on Android, while behaving
the same.
In addition, I removed the flip animation for local tracks, which is no longer
used, since the camera is switched without changing tracks.
Introduce certain React Components which may be used to write
cross-platform source code such as Audio like Web's audio, Container
like Web's div, Text like Web's p, etc.
As an intermediate step on the path to merging jitsi-meet and
jitsi-meet-react, import the whole source code of jitsi-meet-react as it
stands at
2f23d98424
i.e. the lastest master at the time of this import. No modifications are
applied to the imported source code in order to preserve a complete
snapshot of it in the repository of jitsi-meet and, thus, facilitate
comparison later on. Consequently, the source code of jitsi-meet and/or
jitsi-meet-react may not work. For example, jitsi-meet's jshint may be
unable to parse jitsi-meet-react's source code.
