Description

In v2, if you wanted to get the underlying element, it contained the element's context. In v3, there is no context.

I believe for shallow, we just need to add it here https://github.com/airbnb/enzyme/blob/master/packages/enzyme-adapter-react-16/src/ReactSixteenAdapter.js#L224

For mount, it's a few places (in those toTree functions).

I think it'd be nice to have the context on the element though so that it's closer to the real element.

Thoughts?

Research direction
Examine the ReactSixteenAdapter.js file around line 224 and the toTree functions in mount to understand how to add context to the element.
