[ANDROID] ghost transparent bottom strip appears when browser topbar hides on scroll

[cveklica]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Describe the issue

On android web browsers (checked Google Chrome and Samsung Browser), normal behavior is that when user scrolls, browser top bar hides so there is bigger area for reading.
When this happens (top bar hides), strange transparent bottom container appears, and size of it is tab bar+status bar + bottom menu (if any) height. It also disappears when scrolling up when top bar is visible again.

Expected behavior

Not to see ghost bottom bar when scrolling on android.

Steps to reproduce

• "react-native-web": "~0.21.2"
• tested on Google Chrome and Samsung Browser
• Simple ScrollView is enough to see it
