grgmo d09cd62011 Add support for ontimeout and onerror handler when using XMLHttpRequest for Android and iOS
Summary:Currently React-Native does not have `ontimeout` and `onerror` handlers for [XMLHttpRequest](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/XMLHttpRequest). This is an extension to [No timeout on XMLHttpRequest](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/4648).

With addition to two handlers, both Android and iOS can now handle `ontimeout` if request times out and `onerror` when there is general network error.

**Test plan**

Code has been tested on both Android and iOS with [Charles](https://www.charlesproxy.com/) by setting a breakpoint on the request which fires `ontimeout` when the request waits beyond `timeout` time and `onerror` when there is network error.

**Usage**

JavaScript -

```
var request = new XMLHttpRequest();

function onLoad() {
    console.log(request.status);
};

function onTimeout() {
    console.log('Timeout');
};

function onError() {
    console.log('General network error');
};

request.onload = onLoad;
request.ontimeout = onTimeout;
request.onerr
Closes https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/6841

UIExplorer

The UIExplorer is a sample app that showcases React Native views and modules.

Running this app

Before running the app, make sure you ran:

git clone https://github.com/facebook/react-native.git
cd react-native
npm install

Running on iOS

Mac OS and Xcode are required.

  • Open Examples/UIExplorer/UIExplorer.xcodeproj in Xcode
  • Hit the Run button

See Running on device if you want to use a physical device.

Running on Android

You'll need to have all the prerequisites (SDK, NDK) for Building React Native installed.

Start an Android emulator (Genymotion is recommended).

cd react-native
./gradlew :Examples:UIExplorer:android:app:installDebug
./packager/packager.sh

Note: Building for the first time can take a while.

Open the UIExplorer app in your emulator.

See Running on Device in case you want to use a physical device.

Running with Buck

Follow the same setup as running with gradle.

Install Buck from here.

Run the following commands from the react-native folder:

./gradlew :ReactAndroid:packageReactNdkLibsForBuck
buck fetch uiexplorer
buck install -r uiexplorer
./packager/packager.sh

Note: The native libs are still built using gradle. Full build with buck is coming soon(tm).

Built from source

Building the app on both iOS and Android means building the React Native framework from source. This way you're running the latest native and JS code the way you see it in your clone of the github repo.

This is different from apps created using react-native init which have a dependency on a specific version of React Native JS and native code, declared in a package.json file (and build.gradle for Android apps).
