fix(fabric,macos): force overlay scrollbar style in ScrollView

Force NSScrollerStyleOverlay on Fabric ScrollViews to avoid layout
issues with legacy (always-visible) scrollbars. Legacy scrollbars sit
inside the NSScrollView frame and reduce the clip view's visible area,
which would require compensating padding in the Yoga shadow tree.
Overlay scrollers float above content, so no layout compensation is
needed.

Additional fixes:
- Remove autoresizingMask from documentView to prevent AppKit frame
  corruption during tile/resize
- Remove the layoutSubviews workaround (no longer needed without
  autoresizingMask)
- Add [_scrollView tile] after content size updates to re-evaluate
  scroller visibility
- Fix hit testing: check NSScroller before content subviews so
  scrollbar clicks aren't swallowed by full-width content views

Fixes #2857
