[Init] Add an executor provider to RCTBridge's init method

If you construct an RCTBridge you may want to configure the executor. However the constructor synchronously calls `setUp` and initializes the executor. Instead, let the code that constructs the bridge specify an executor source, which controls how the executor is provided. This allows for customizing the web view executor with a UIWebView of your choice, or configuring the URL of the debugger proxy that the web socket executor connects to.

Now that RCTRootView takes a bridge in one of its initializers, it is possible to create a bridge with a custom executor and then use that to set up a root view as well.

Test Plan: Run the UIExplorer app and confirm I am able to connect to the plain JSContext via Safari. Hit Cmd-D, pick Chrome and see Chrome open a Tab. Hit Cmd-N and see that I can connect to a plain JSContext again. Shake the simulator and select "Enable Safari Debugging" and see that I can connect to the UIWebView from Safari. tl;dr the keyboard shortcuts and dev menu work as expected.

Fixes #288
