Image previews for the Expo TikTok sample app.

This is cool, thanks a lot !

However I would honestly try to record these on a device rather than on a simulator/emulator. The reason for this is the fact that under the hood we utilize FlashList, for which this particular usecase is sort of the bread and butter of its capabilities.

With that said, in debug builds it tends to perform more poorly due to how recycling works in general. In other words it should look and feel much, much better for a demo such as this one (that flicker on Android should be gone). This is fine for now but it would be great if we could do it at some point too.

Also, the new post creation screen appears to have more stuff in it than the app has currently, were these added after the fact ? I don't think we should be adding things that do not exist yet.

And one final question, should we maintain these gifs/previews as the app changes ? Since it's a sample app, it will change significantly and very quickly, I'm sure. Not an issue to do it at all, just wondering.
