rCOMM3e1cc43ba3b1: [native] introduced reactions to chat item height measurer

Summary

introduced reactions to chat item height measurer. This is necessary to because in native/chat/message-list-container we measure the messages first and then pass the message list data with heights down to MessageList which will eventually then be used by InlineSidebar

Depends on D5811
Linear Task: ENG-2408

Test Plan

Will be doing more tests in subsequent diffs. Ran mobile/web app locally and nothing crashes. I also was able to get to the point where I could send and reaction and it would render on my local stack (see demo video below)

Also, before these changes I was getting this error message in my logs telling me that the height was incorrect; however, after these changes the error message went away showing that InlineSidebar was taken into consideration

Note that InlineSidebar is not currently measured by ChatItemHeightMeasurer: ENG-775

I think we instead have some hardcoded value somewhere that contains its height, so we should make sure to update that as we update InlineSidebar

151 ↗	(On Diff #19152)	How does the measurer know how to measure a reaction?
native/types/chat-types.js
59 ↗	(On Diff #19152)	It seems quite extensive to provide the whole list of reactions while the only thing needed for now is a flag telling if there's any reaction, but maybe in the future we would have different height based on number and type of reactions.

Looks reasonable, adding @ashoat as a blocking reviewer since I don't have much context on NodeHeightMeasurer

Please respond to my question earlier. It's not clear to me what this diff is doing... is it getting ChatItemHeightMeasurer to measure reactions? Or is it just adding some parameter to fix some Flow issue?
Can you update the Test Plan to cover making sure that either:
- The measurements are correct (ie. this doesn't trigger on iOS like it does for Android on master, cc @rohan) AND the measurements take InlineSidebar into consideration (looks like they don't?)
- If incorrect measurements don't get caught (eg. the code above is not triggered and/or the measurement's don't take InlineSidebar into consideration), can you make sure that our manual height calculations are still correct?

native/types/chat-types.js
25 ↗	(On Diff #19152)	Sorry this took me a while to address. I generally have a preference for making "empty" data structures optional but spoke to @atul last week about this, and we came to the conclusion that it is better to just have them be required and empty
