The docs for `progressUpdateInterval` say that the value is in milliseconds, but the docs for `onProgress` said that the value was in seconds. This fixes the latter documentation to be consistent with the former.

By forcefully calling the garbage collector the memory crashes, specially on lower resolutions (<720p) are gone on devices with 2GB of ram or less and Android 6, also testing 3GB Android 7 with this patch, so far is working as intended

This PR changes the behavior on old devices that have poor memory management.
Jira: VEX-6030

The solution implied customizing the method shouldContinueLoading from RNVLoadControl to use only the available heap, performing tests on an old Nexus 5 it was determined the ideal bytes allocation to half the reported heap, that provided some buffering during ads but smooth playback during the video with no crashes (23:39 of 23:39 at the moment of writing this, video kept playing as expected after 3 ad breaks)
The fix is only targeting Marshmallow as the reduction of buffer is substantial and other versions that work properly should not get affected.
Depending on the test result of VEX-5758, this same fix can be applied to Nougat
