React Native Adobe Experience Platform Edge Bridge extension

@adobe/react-native-aepedgebridge is a wrapper around the iOS and Android Adobe Experience Platform Edge Bridge to allow for integration with React Native applications.

The Edge Bridge mobile extension provides seamless routing of data to the Adobe Experience Platform Edge Network for existing SDK implementations. For applications which already make use of the MobileCore.trackAction and/or MobileCore.trackState APIs to send data to Adobe Analytics, this extension will automatically route those API calls to the Edge Network, making the data available for mapping to a user's XDM schema using the Data Prep for Data Collection.

[!IMPORTANT] Edge Bridge serves primarily as a migration aid for applications that are already using Adobe Analytics within their implementation.

For new applications being developed with the Adobe Experience Platform Mobile SDKs, it is strongly recommended to use the Edge.sendEvent API of the Edge Network extension.
