Android Support

@GeoffreyX evaluate if this works on Android using a local file (already on the device). We can add support to convert to Base64 in Java later if this method works.

1. If Android, use Webview instead of Quicklook (https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-native-webview)
2. Webview can accept HTML string, so we can try to generate an HTML string using the <embed> tag to render the file preview (https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_embed.asp)
3. The embed tag will use a reference to the local file path

@AndrewNoviello we want to keep this project separate from the other project. Try to get the basic use case working - display a base64 image within the application (not opening another app like google)
