Add getDerivedStateFromProps documentation for createClass (#1214)

[kanikaa88]

This PR adds documentation for using getDerivedStateFromProps with components created via the createClass API. This helps legacy codebases using the create-react-class package understand that they can adopt the newer lifecycle pattern.

The note has been added to the static getDerivedStateFromProps section in Component.md, explaining that this method can also be used with createClass components.

Closes #1214
