Migration guide for 4.0

Changes introduced in react-native-paper 4.0 version

Library level changes

The library takes advantage of the React Native 62 improvements, automatically detecting dark/light theme preference, as well as reduce motion accessibility settings and adjusting components appearance accordingly. We also extend theme customization ability, allowing you to add your own custom properties to it.

All of our Examples have been migrated to React Hooks, as we wanted to reflect the way React Native is currently used.

There's also a ton of improvements in types, accessibility and a lot of bug fixes.
