Experiment - Android X migration

[marecar3]

Issue: #1062

With this PR we are migrating gutenberg-mobile android application to AndroidX.

RN already provided AndroidX support so we are targeting RN60 with @jtreanor's patch for cocoapods in this PR

Libraries that are also migrated to AndroidX:

1. Aztec-Android

2. react-native-video

3. react-native-recyclerview-list

WPAndroid against this PR.

Note: As we are using the newest version of jsc-android 241213, should we push it on : https://dl.bintray.com/wordpress-mobile/react-native-mirror/org/webkit/android-jsc/ ? @hypest @jtreanor (not sure)

Not working: Working ✅

1. Gutenberg mobile tests, enzyme complains that adapter isn't set, I assume that it's something with RN60 version, maybe @etoledom can help here with some hint?

2. WordPress-Android tests -> jitpack.io can't build react-native-video-wordpress as it can't find RN60 at https://dl.bintray.com/wordpress-mobile/react-native-mirror/com/facebook/react/react-native/

@hypest I am curios should we push RN60 there or maybe I just wrongly configured react-native-video wordpress-mobile/react-native-video@enable-android-build-of-standalone-package...wordpress-mobile:experiment/android_x_migration#diff-3a56ae3cf3e05886fec69653e96f2456R53

I must admit that I am not sure how build.gradle file should be configured as I saw that jitpack is trying to call this command: ./gradlew clean -Pgroup=com.github.wordpress-mobile -Pversion=57ad4e840a -xtest -xlint install in react-native-video.

Update release notes:

• If there are user facing changes, I have added an item to RELEASE-NOTES.txt.

Update: I pushed RN v0.60.0-rc.1, JSC-r241213 to the Bintray mirror.

WPAndroid PR, at least for testing purposes: wordpress-mobile/WordPress-Android#10022

[hypest]

I tried to build the latest gutenberg-mobile develop with the wpandroid develop using binary artifacts (source mode off) and it works (including running the app and the editor) so, this PR is not a blocker for the v1.7 code freeze. Besides, this PR updates React Native to a RC version which we don't want to ship yet so, better to postpone anyway.

iOS side looks good to go! ✅ 🎉

Tested on the demo app and WPiOS via wordpress-mobile/WordPress-iOS#12056

As far as I can see, the Aztec PR is not green yet and needs more migration of the testsuites. I pushed a commit to fix some of them but more work is needed. Let's get it green before we merge the rest of the PR set so we can be more confident we haven't broken something.

Ok, I will take care of that one @hypest

👋 @daniloercoli , can you do another round of testing to mainly verify I didn't break something with 4107bf6? Thanks!

This now looks good to me!
