The PR focuses into optimising the behaviour of our
MessageList/MessageFlashList. As a result of it moverenderItemcompletely out of theMessageListandMessageFlashList. The changes mostly are as follows:getGroupStylesandgetDateSeparatorsto do the same job.renderItemjust was dependent on stable props so I decided to create a contextMessageListItemContextfor the same and use it insideMessageWrappercomponent thereby moving therenderItemout of the MessageList which was always our goal.This obviously came with a couple of deprecations which we cannot remove right now but may be in the future which will make the code cleaner and faster as we get rid of the unnecessary calculations we still need to have within the code.
