React Hooks Update

[danieloprado]

I have gone through these following points

• Check latest documentation: https://docs.nativebase.io/
• Check for existing open/closed issues for a possible duplicate before creating a new issue: https://github.com/GeekyAnts/NativeBase/issues
• Use the latest NativeBase release: https://github.com/GeekyAnts/NativeBase/releases
• Check examples from NativeBase KitchenSink https://github.com/GeekyAnts/NativeBase-KitchenSink
• For discussion purpose make use of NativeBase Slack: http://slack.nativebase.io/
• For queries related to theme, check Theme Variables from Docs and live NativeBase Theme Editor http://nativebase.io/customizer/

Issue Description

It's is a proposal, we could migrate to use the new React Hooks Api, it's totally compatible with the current code and it can run side by side, I've created a pull request to demonstrate how simple it is and we could do it component by component with no rush.

Reasons:

• Better Performance
• Simplify the code
• Easy Maintainability
• With the new StyleProviderContext will be easy to third party libs to use the theme variables.

@danieloprado That sounds like a great plan. We've been discussing the move to Hooks for a while now and the timing of your PR couldn't have been better!
Will take a look at the PR soon. Also roping in @sanketsahusoft for any inputs.

Hi @danieloprado Is this library support React Hooks? It seems not according to the doc? e.g. https://docs.nativebase.io/Components.html#button-def-headref
