📜 Description

Expose type property in EventEmitter events.

💡 Motivation and Context

Added a new property to KeyboardEventData - type. This property reflects keyboardType set on TextInput.

I decided to include more information about the keyboard (we already have a full control over animation properties, but I thought it could be useful to extend the library functionality and include some other properties, such as type/appearance/capitalized and other).

As of now there is no much sense in these properties, but I'm thinking about new API KeyboardController.retain()/KeyboardController.hold() - and in this case it's super useful to know these properties, to re-create the same TextInput and set focus to this newly created input.

However it's only plans, but having this information in the API can be useful, so I decided to add it now.
