[WIP] Try update to React 16.8

[danielkcz]

So 16.8 is officially out with hooks. I tried updating it and a bunch of tests got broken. I will look into it later or feel free to help with that.

Once it's fixed, I want to release this as 1.0.0. There won't be probably any API change for now anyway.

Fixes #58

Ok, so fixing the tests was fairly easy after all. The useState apparently got optimized and it's no longer rerendering if a value hasn't actually changed. I had to revert our forceUpdate utility function which modification kinda slipped away in recent changes by @alsotang.

Wondering if there is actually some hooks variant of forceUpdate, haven't seen any mention of it.

Now we basically need to wait for react-testing-library to merge use of act utility to get rid of those warnings spilled all over the tests.

Coverage decreased (-1.2%) to 98.824% when pulling d9e9282 on react168 into c363c9f on master.

I've also upgraded other dev dependencies so we are coming to 1.0.0 with a clean slate. Should really setup some dependencies auto update app - recommendations?

Jest will stay at 23 for now because ts-jest support is not there yet.

yarn upgrade-interactive ?

Btw, do the error console logs actually mean we should be using act on unit tests or are the react-testing-library guys going to fix that somehow?

[xaviergonz]

Nevermind, just saw the comment about react-testing-library

[danielkcz]

@xaviergonz That's what I am trying to figure in here: testing-library/react-testing-library#281

I mean something automatic. I do recall some Greenkeeper tool from the past, but not sure if there is something better.

Alright, tests are finally fixed to the top notch again. And React 16.8.1 got released meanwhile so it's there also :)

Take a look at https://renovatebot.com/ - it's free for Open Source Projects :)

Also: Thanks for being so quick about fixing this! ❤️
