Changes the behavior of the JSX runtime to pass through `ref` as a
normal prop, rather than plucking it from the props object and storing
on the element.
This is a breaking change since it changes the type of the receiving
component. However, most code is unaffected since it's unlikely that a
component would have attempted to access a `ref` prop, since it was not
possible to get a reference to one.
`forwardRef` _will_ still pluck `ref` from the props object, though,
since it's extremely common for users to spread the props object onto
the inner component and pass `ref` as a differently named prop. This is
for maximum compatibility with existing code — the real impact of this
change is that `forwardRef` is no longer required.
Currently, refs are resolved during child reconciliation and stored on
the fiber. As a result of this change, we can move ref resolution to
happen only much later, and only for components that actually use them.
Then we can remove the `ref` field from the Fiber type. I have not yet
done that in this step, though.
