Shared element transitions

[brentvatne]

Currently React doesn't support reusing a native view in different parts of the component hierarchy, which makes it difficult to implement shared element transitions in pure JS.

I’ve implemented Shared Elements in React Native on Android. My solution is in keeping with the React Native philosophy where you write your code in React but the underlying implementation uses the native makeSceneTransitionAnimation API. I’ve written a Zoom example so you can see it in action.
