flow fixes (handle properly TODO): TextInput

We add `typeof` in several places to address this Flow error that
starts appearing at the RN and Flow upgrade:

```
Cannot use `TextInput` as a type. A name can be used as a type only
if it refers to a type definition, an interface definition, or a
class definition. To get the type of a non-class value, use
`typeof`.
```

I'm not sure if this is due to the Flow upgrade or to changes React
Native made to `TextInput`, or both. Several changes to `TextInput`
are announced in the changelog [1], including three that are
breaking, but I haven't been able to identify any in particular that
would start giving us that error.

With that dealt with, we also get this new error on calling various
methods on the instance stored at a `TextInput` ref (e.g.,
`textInputRef.current.focus()`):

```
Cannot call textInputRef.current.focus because:
 • Either property focus is missing in AbstractComponent [1].
 • Or property focus is missing in object type [2].
```

At first, I thought something was wrong with how we're annotating
the variable storing the ref, or that Flow didn't fully understand
the `React.createRef` API (we started using that in a recent commit
before the main upgrade commit). But rather, it seems to be an issue
that's known to occur at RN v0.61.1, and which didn't occur on
`master` as of 2020-04-06 [2]. Checking commits around that date in
`react-native`, I'm pretty sure we'll have a fix in RN v0.63
(#4245).
