position left/right should not be stored in message json about react-native-gifted-chat

[sibelius]

@josefrichter I using your approach in my component - Message.js check it out, it was based on this component

I think you can create an adapter for your needs, something like

messages = messages.map(function(message) {
  return {
    // ...
    position: (message.authorID === currentUser.id ? 'right' : 'left'),
    // ...
  }
});
