Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/38648https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/38475 made this code no longer no-op on Android, which caused regressions documented in https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/38470#issuecomment-1639620459 due to VirtualizedList having more out-of-date information.
We are already coalescing scroll events on both Android and iOS, which will ensure we are not flooded with events. VirtualizedList also already inserts an artificial 50ms delay to new renders by default when high priority work is not happening (see `updateCellsBatchingPeriod`). This limits the heavy work done by VirtualizedList (no new renders or expensive math on scroll events), while letting the list still have the most recent events.
We can eventually remove this once VirtualizedList is able to use OffScreen universally.

Summary:
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/38655https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/35993 added logic in VirtualizedList to support `maintainVisibleContentPosition`. This logic makes sure that a previously visible cell being used as an anchor remains rendered after new content is added.
The strategy here is to calculate the difference in previous and new positions of the anchor, and move the render window to its new location during item change. `minIndexForVisible` is used as this anchor.
When an item change moves the anchor to a position below `minIndexForVisible`, shifting the render window may result in a window which starts before zero. This fixes up `_constrainToItemCount()` to handle this.

Summary:
This PR is a result of this PR, which got merged but then reverted:
- https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/37913
We are trying to implement a workaround for https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/35350, so react-native users on android API 33+ can use `<FlatList inverted={true} />` without running into ANRs.
As explained in the issue, starting from android API 33 there are severe performance issues when using scaleY: -1 on a view, and its child view, which is what we are doing when inverting the ScrollView component (e.g. in FlatList).
This PR adds a workaround. The workaround is to also scale on the X-Axis which causes a different transform matrix to be created, that doesn't cause the ANR (see the issue for details).
However, when doing that the vertical scroll bar will be on the wrong side, thus we switch the position in the native code once we detect that the list is inverted, using the newly added `isInvertedVirtualizedList` prop.
This is a follow up PR to:
- https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/38071⚠️ **Note:** [38071](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/38071) needs to be merged and shipped first! Only then we can merge this PR.

Summary:
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/38529
VirtualizedList internally represents metrics along the scrolling axis using `offset` (x, y), and `length` (width, height). This one dimensional representation allows the list to be generic to being horizontal or vertical.
Right now offset conversion directly takes the `x` or `y` axis value, but this is not correct when we are using a horizontal FlatList in RTL.
This change converts most VirtualizedList code handling `offset,length` coordinates consistently flow from start to end, including in horizontal RTL and in inverted FlatList.
This is paired with a fix to Android native code in D47627115. With these together, basic Horizontal FlatList scenarios should work correctly when laid out in RTL.

Summary:
`maintainVisibleContentPosition` is broken when using virtualization and the new content pushes visible content outside its "window". This can be reproduced in the example from this diff. When using a large page size it will always push visible content outside of the list "window" which will cause currently visible views to be unmounted so the implementation of `maintainVisibleContentPosition` can't adjust the content inset since the visible views no longer exist.
The first illustration shows the working case, when the new content doesn't push visible content outside the window. The red box represents the window, all views outside the box are not mounted, which means the native implementation of `maintainVisibleContentPosition` has no way to know it exists. In that case the first visible view is https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/2, after new content is added https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/2 is still inside the window so there's not problem adjusting content offset to maintain position. As you can see Step 1 and 3 result in the same position for all initial views.
The second illustation shows the broken case, when new content is added and pushes the first visible view outside the window. As you can see in step 2 the view https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/2 is no longer rendered so there's no way to maintain its position.
#### Illustration 1

#### Illustration 2

To fix `maintainVisibleContentPosition` when using `VirtualizedList` we need to make sure the visible items stay rendered when new items are added at the start of the list.
In order to do that we need to do the following:
- Detect new items that will cause content to be adjusted
- Add cells to render mask so that previously visible cells stay rendered
- Ignore certain updates while scroll metrics are invalid
### Detect new items that will cause content to be adjusted
The goal here is to know that scroll position will be updated natively by the `maintainVisibleContentPosition` implementation. The problem is that the native code uses layout heuristics which are not easily available to JS to do so. In order to approximate the native heuristic we can assume that if new items are added at the start of the list, it will cause `maintainVisibleContentPosition` to be triggered. This simplifies JS logic a lot as we don't have to track visible items. In the worst case if for some reason our JS heuristic is wrong, it will cause extra cells to be rendered until the next scroll event, or content position will not be maintained (what happens all the time currently). I think this is a good compromise between complexity and accuracy.
We need to find how many items have been added before the first one. To do that we save the key of the first item in state `firstItemKey`. When data changes we can find the index of `firstItemKey` in the new data and that will be the amount we need to adjust the window state by.
Note that this means that keys need to be stable, and using index won't work.
### Add cells to render mask so that previously visible cells stay rendered
Once we have the adjusted number we can save this in a new state value `maintainVisibleContentPositionAdjustment` and add the adjusted cells to the render mask.
This state is then cleared when we receive updated scroll metrics, once the native implementation is done adding the new items and adjusting the content offset.
This value is also only set when `maintainVisibleContentPosition` is set so this makes sure this maintains the currently behavior when that prop is not set.
### Ignore certain updates while scroll metrics are invalid
While the `maintainVisibleContentPositionAdjustment` state is set we know that the current scroll metrics are invalid since they will be updated in the native `ScrollView` implementation. In that case we want to prevent certain code from running.
One example is `onStartReached` that will be called incorrectly while we are waiting for updated scroll metrics.

We only know where the last focused cell lives after it is rendered. Apart from dead refs handled in D43835135, this means items added or removed before the focused cell will lead to a stale last index for the next state update.
We don't have a good way to correlate cells after data change. This effects the implementation for [`maintainVisibleContentPosition`](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/35993) as well, but needs some thought on the right way to handle it. For now, we bail when we don't know where the last focused cell lives.

Summary:
The contract here is that `initialScrollIndex` only applies once, right after the components mount. There is other code still relying on live `initialScrollIndex`, which is allowed to become stale. E.g. after removing items.
I looked at a larger change of only ever using `initialScrollIndex` in the start, so we have a consistent value. We also ideally should fix up the logic relying on it for the scroll to top optimization.
That series of changes is more involved than I want to spend time on, so this just avoids the check once we have triggered a scroll, where the rest of the code is UT'd to be permissive if it drifts out of allowed.

Summary:
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/36345
`exactOptionalPropertyTypes` is a TypeScript 4.4+ option set by users which changes behavior of optional properties, to disable accepting explicit `undefined`.
This is not enabled when using `--strict`, and is stricter than Flow, leading to most of the typings having an `| undefined` unique to TypeScript (added with https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped/commit/694c663a9486dbe7794d5eb894a691ee9ded318a).
We have not always followed this (I have myself previously assumed the two are equivalent). We can enforce that the convention is followed with a plugin `eslint-plugin-redundant-undefined`. This forces us to declare that every optional property accepts an explicit undefined (which Flow would allow). Alternatively, if we do not want to support this, we can enable the existing dtslint rule `no-redundant-undefined`.

This call may trigger an `onViewableItemsChanged`, which is normally not an issue (minus changing timing), but creates problems if the users callback then calls imperative methods on the VirtualizedList, since the batched state update may be in the process of changing the props/state the imperative method is reading. See https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/36329 for what I suspect is an example of this.
This moves the `_updateViewableItems` call to before the state update, like the previous version of VirtualizedList.

This fixes a bug where we were relying on potentially stale state, a RenderMask derived from `this.state` instead of the `state` callback parameter, when triggering updates from focus.
Note that this is not exercised on Android/iOS, but it on desktop/web. I noticed this a while back while making another change, but that change got abandoned, so this is the independent fix.
