Summary:
When enablePreparedTextLayout is true, we may reuse layouts (including backing Spannable), even when ShadowNode generation changes. React tags are subject to change during this period, so we have an extra layer of indirection, that users of PreparedLayout based state currently have to deal with.

This adds that logic so that hit testing, a11y delegate, and spans against FragmentIndex, all work in the scenario of ReactTextView with Facsimile state, used for selectable text.

… testing/a11y for selectable Text in Facsimile) (facebook#55559)

Summary:

When enablePreparedTextLayout is true, we may reuse layouts (including backing `Spannable`), even when ShadowNode generation changes. React tags are subject to change during this period, so we have an extra layer of indirection, that users of `PreparedLayout` based state currently have to deal with.

This adds that logic so that hit testing, a11y delegate, and spans against FragmentIndex, all work in the scenario of ReactTextView with Facsimile state, used for selectable text.

Summary:
Extract ParagraphComponentDescriptor logic into a template base class BaseParagraphComponentDescriptor<ShadowNodeT> so that other paragraph-like component descriptors can reuse the same TextLayoutManager wiring. Remove `final` from ParagraphShadowNode to allow subclassing. Move TextLayoutManagerKey from extern linkage in .cpp to constexpr in the new header.

This is a pure refactor with no behavioral change.

Differential Revision: D93829402
Summary:
Add the native components needed to route selectable text through ReactTextView instead of PreparedLayoutTextView when enablePreparedTextLayout is on.

C++ side: Add SelectableParagraphShadowNode (inherits ParagraphShadowNode) and SelectableParagraphComponentDescriptor (inherits BaseParagraphComponentDescriptor). Register in CoreComponentsRegistry and componentNameByReactViewName.

Android side: Make ReactTextViewManager open so it can be subclassed. Add getReactTextUpdateFromPreparedLayout to handle ReferenceStateWrapper holding PreparedLayout. Create SelectableTextViewManager (extends ReactTextViewManager, registered as RCTSelectableText). Add FabricNameComponentMapping entry for SelectableParagraph -> RCTSelectableText.

No JS code references RCTSelectableText yet, so the new components are inert.

Differential Revision: D93829403
Summary:
Wire up the JS side to use the new SelectableTextViewManager native component. When enablePreparedTextLayout() is on, NativeSelectableText resolves to RCTSelectableText, routing selectable text through ReactTextView instead of PreparedLayoutTextView. When the flag is off, NativeSelectableText falls back to NativeText, so behavior is identical to before.

Refactor NativePressableText and NativePressableVirtualText from arrow function component expressions to component declarations (PressableText and PressableVirtualText). PressableText now accepts a selectable prop to choose between NativeSelectableText and NativeText.

Add a check(!isSelectable) guard in PreparedLayoutTextViewManager.setSelectable since selectable text now routes to SelectableTextViewManager instead.
