Andrew Clark cb1ff430e8 Phased dispatcher (#14701)
* Move DEV-only function right above where it's used

I don't like looking at this top-level function #petty

* Use different dispatchers for functions & classes

Classes support readContext, but not any of the other dispatcher
methods. Function support all methods.

This is a more robust version of our previous strategy of checking
whether `currentlyRenderingFiber` is null.

As a next step, we can use a separate dispatcher for each phase of the
render cycle (mount versus update).

* Use separate dispatchers for mount and update

* Remove mount code from update path

Deletes mount-specific code from the update path, since it should be
unreachable. To continue supporting progressive enhancement (mounting
new hooks at the end of the list), we detect when there are no more
current hooks and switch back to the mount dispatcher. Progressive
enhancement isn't officially supported yet, so it will continue to warn.

* Factoring nits

* Fix Flow

Had to cheat more than I would like

* More Flow nits

* Switch back to using a special dispatcher for nested hooks in DEV

In order for this strategy to work, I had to revert progressive
enhancement support (appending hooks to the end). It was previously a
warning but now it results in an error. We'll reconsider later.

* Always pass args to updateState and updateReducer

Even though the extra args are only used on mount, to ensure
type consistency.

react-test-renderer

This package provides an experimental React renderer that can be used to render React components to pure JavaScript objects, without depending on the DOM or a native mobile environment.

Essentially, this package makes it easy to grab a snapshot of the "DOM tree" rendered by a React DOM or React Native component without using a browser or jsdom.

Documentation:

https://reactjs.org/docs/test-renderer.html

Usage:

const ReactTestRenderer = require('react-test-renderer');

const renderer = ReactTestRenderer.create(
  <Link page="https://www.facebook.com/">Facebook</Link>
);

console.log(renderer.toJSON());
// { type: 'a',
//   props: { href: 'https://www.facebook.com/' },
//   children: [ 'Facebook' ] }

You can also use Jest's snapshot testing feature to automatically save a copy of the JSON tree to a file and check in your tests that it hasn't changed: https://facebook.github.io/jest/blog/2016/07/27/jest-14.html.
