CB-11409: (iOS) New method allowing to disable automated memory release on
memoryWarning
### Platforms affected
iOS
### What does this PR do?
It is adding a method allowing the user to disable (and re-enable) the
automated resource releasing when a memory warning is received on iOS. Why?
Because user may want to handle memory warnings by himself (such as releasing
other less important resource first).
This method is static, on the class:
```js
Media.shouldReleaseOnMemoryWarning(false);
// Here comes custom code to handle memoryWarnings
```
### What testing has been done on this change?
- Played multiple (non streaming) audio files after having disabled the
auto-release and while having some heavy memory process running, until a
memoryWarning is received: audio continue to play.
- Played multiple (non streaming) audio files with the auto-release enabled
and while having some heavy memory process running, until a memoryWarning is
received: audio stops.
Ran the integrated tests. Before doing any change (version 2.3.1-dev) the
result was:

After the change the result is exactly the same:

All tests was made with an iPad2 on iOS8.4.
