BackAndroid.exitApp() prevent to hide Toast message

[exromany]

0.18.0

When I show Toast message and invoke BackAndroid.exitApp() while it still shown, Toast message will not be closed.

ToastAndroid.show('This message will not be closed', ToastAndroid.SHORT);
setTimeout(() => {
  BackAndroid.exitApp();
}, 1000);

It looks like react-native changes the thread to run native modules. This causes toast message cannot disappear after exitApp(). I'll give a PR today.
