Summary:
This PR is related to https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/27290.
I just upgraded my project's Gradle wrapper version to 6.0.1 and I realized some files have some differences with the files in react-native `template` folder. so I create this PR to apply differences.
the main difference is in the `gradlew` file. I'm not familiar with Linux shell scripts but it seems there was a syntax error in `case` items syntax. `(` should not be used in declaring case's items. it may has building error in Linux OS.
## Changelog
[Android] [Fixed] - Applied missing changes from bumping Gradle wrapper to 6.0.1
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/27639
Test Plan: I have no Linux OS right now, so I can't directly test these changes, but because the changes have made by running `gradlew wrapper` command, it should not break CI. (I hope :) )

Summary:
There was a reflective call to a non-existent class. It did, however,
exist in the template, so I copied it over from there and updated
the references accordingly.

Summary:
Most RN apps have single activity, and developers expect to resume application from background when app icon pressed. But Android default configuration creates a new activity instance, which confuses developers, see https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/27370 and https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/27368.
This PR changes template manifest so that when app icon pressed, background app will resume instead of creating a new activity, therefore match developers expectations. Also it's required to make Linking work.

Summary:
- Using "System.getenv" allows to specify any entry file using environment variables and without modifying gradle file. Example:
export ENTRY_FILE="another_entry_file.js"
./gradlew assembleDebug
- This functionality is also more align with iOS implementation that uses 'if [[ "$ENTRY_FILE" ]]; then'. See https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/23667 for more details.
- Possibility to define entry file on CI without modifying sources (Example: project like [pixels-catcher](https://www.npmjs.com/package/pixels-catcher) requires different entry file)
## Changelog:
[Android] [Added] - Custom entry file on android using `ENTRY_FILE` environment variable
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/26769
Test Plan:
- Create a project from template
- Define `ENTRY_FILE` environment variable
```
export ENTRY_FILE="anotherIndexFile.js"
```
- Build android
```
./gradlew assembleDebug
```
Expected result: App contains bundle file that starts from `anotherIndexFile.js` file.

Summary:
The `dependencies` section in the `build.gradle` Android template contains this line:
implementation "com.facebook.react:react-native:+" // From node_modules
It causes the following Gradle Lint warning:
> Avoid using '+' in version numbers, can lead to unpredictable or unrepeatable builds
In this case, as the `// From node_modules` comment suggests, the version is _not_ determined by Gradle but by the version specified in `package.json` - Using "+" is completely fine and intentional.
Therefore it can safely be ignored, which is what the added `//noinspection` comment does.
## Changelog
[Android] [Fixed] - Skip lint check for dynamic react-native version
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/26222
Test Plan: Projects generated with the new template no longer cause the warning anymore.

Summary:
packagingOptions.pickFirst is unreliable that we could not specify which library will be used.
If user have other third party libraries, the story is more complicated.
From the framework point of view, it is better to drop the pickFirst.
In jsc-android 241213.1.0, we did two things:
1. Remove libc++_shared.so in AAR to prevent the conflict with RN.
2. Build by NDK r17c, which aligned with current RN NDK version.
In this commit, I also revert the pickFirst for JSC.
pickFirst JSC also makes upgrade JSC unreliable.
Currently a lot of user report JSC crash issues, those crash issues may relate to JIT and hard to reproduce in-house.
My plan is to make sure user could choose another JSC build easier,
i.e. only to `yarn add 'jsc-android@latest'`.
We could then propose some experimented JSC build for user to check
if the build could help them to fix the crash issue.
[Android] [Fixed] - Remove unreliable packagingOptions.pickFirst for libc++_shared.so and libjsc.so
NOTE that this may not need to add the changelog, as RN 0.59 does not have pickFirst.
This will also reduce a breaking change for upgrade from RN 0.59 or before.

Summary:
By default, the text color is `#000000` on iOS and different on Android, e.g. `#808080`, depending on the manufactorer.
This PR changes it so that newly created projects all have the text color `#000000` by default on both iOS and Android.
The argument for this is to make the app by default be more consistent between platforms.
Expo also does this: https://github.com/expo/expo/blob/master/android/expoview/src/main/res/values/styles.xml#L31

For context and for your consideration, I have started a discussion here with the topic of whether React Native should try to use OS defaults or be consistent between platforms:
https://github.com/react-native-community/discussions-and-proposals/issues/121

Summary:
In origin approach, we packed libjsc.so inside react-native.aar and it is difficult for user to choose different JSC variants. E.g., [the Intl supported version](https://github.com/react-native-community/jsc-android-buildscripts#international-variant).
This change list allows application to determine JSC versions or variants by npm/yarn package.
There is a |useIntlJsc| flag in build.gradle, it will use the same JSC version but with Intl support.
`yarn add jsc-android@canary`
[Android] [Changed] - Allow application to select different JSC variants
**MIGRATION**
Note that there are some changes in build.gradle.
Existing application needs to change their android/build.gradle and android/app/build.gradle.
Hopefully, the rn-diff-purge should handle the case well.

Summary:
This diff removes the `WebView` export from React Native. Internally, we are requiring `WebView` directly now and externally people will have to use the community maintained module. This diff does not yet move the WebView files from the repo, this will happen in a follow-up.
Note that I had to remove a test for Cookies that displayed data in a WebView. I don't think there is an easy way to retain this (debugging) information that likely very few people ever take a look at so I think it is fine.
