UI lags when rendering a lot of calendars in CalendarList

[andresmartinezstay]

Hi! 👋

Firstly, thanks for your work on this project! 🙂

Today I used patch-package to patch react-native-calendars@1.1303.0 for the project I'm working on.

It would be useful to expose the windowSize prop from FlatList so when rendering a lot of calendars the UI responsiveness is not affected. Right now with the default window size the UI lags like 3 seconds when rendering a list of 24 calendars and pressing a day

Here is the diff that solved my problem:
