Add way to use virtualization with list controls about react-native-xaml

To get this to work completely with you being able to define list items in JS we would need Fabric support.
Today, you can use the JS VirtualizedList and be JS from that point down. Or you can add in a XAML control and never drop into JS below that point (it's a native control all the way down). But there is no way to do this today due to the way the React layout and XAML layout interop.

In other words, to do this today you need to do contortions. There will be a better way in the future, but the future is much further out.

Creative ways on the RNXaml side: Maybe we can extend ListView with a prop that lets you customize the list items by calling into JS. Which would be similar to hosting each item with its own React root view. Definitely many caveats about any path here. It'd best be tailored to the exact needs of this list.

This should be possible with a data ItemsSource, but not with a visual (list item) Items.

Room for a better sample on the standard RN path for this. Opened this: microsoft/react-native-gallery#264
