Description
Do we still need this code?
I am using Carousel in react-native-tab-view, and Carousel flickers on tab change.
Green pane is react-native-tab-view, and Red pane is Carousel.
When I remove requestAnimationFrame, it works fine.
By the way, what is hideCarousel for?

Research direction
Start at src/carousel/Carousel.js around line 187 and inspect the requestAnimationFrame logic and the hideCarousel usage. Reproduce the flicker by using Carousel inside react-native-tab-view, then compare behavior with requestAnimationFrame removed. Done means the tab change no longer flickers while the intended purpose of hideCarousel remains clear.
