Summary: Removes the deprecated ViewAtIndex class and the associated manageChildren API from the React Native Android legacy architecture. These components were part of the old view management system and are no longer used in production code. The manageChildren API allowed JavaScript to add, remove, and move views within a parent view by providing arrays of indices and tags. This functionality has been superseded by the newer architecture's view management approach. This removal simplifies the codebase by eliminating unnecessary complexity in view hierarchy management and reducing the API surface area that needs to be maintained during the migration away from the legacy architecture. changelog: [Android][Breaking] Removed ViewAtIndex class and manageChildren API from UIManager Reviewed By: javache Differential Revision: D88423310
