Summary: This diff fixes the issue with view paddings in Fabric introduced in D17081799. In Paper setting padding on a view was only supported for Text and TextInput components (see https://fburl.com/codesearch/6r6lu5vd). We want to keep Fabric backwards compatible, so we delegate setting the padding to the view manager instead of setting it directly on the view. In this way we can have a no-op implementation in the base view manager and implement this method only in view managers that support setting padding (ReactTextInputManager and ReactTextViewManager at the moment).

Summary:
When using a medium (500) font weight on Android the wrong weight is used for the placeholder and for the first few seconds of input (before it gets text back from JS). To fix it I refactored the way we handle text styles (family, weight, style) to create a typeface to be more like the `Text` component.
Since all these 3 props are linked and used to create the typeface object it makes more sense to do it at the end of setting props instead of in each prop handler and trying to recreate the object without losing styles set by other prop handlers. Do do that we now store fontFamily, fontStyle and fontWeight as ivar of the ReactEditText class. At the end of updating prop if any of those changed we recreate the typeface object.
This doesn't actually fix the bug but was a first step towards it. There were a bunch of TODOs in the code to remove duplication between `Text` and `TextInput` for parsing and creating the typeface object. To do that I simply moved the code to util functions in a static class. Once the duplication was removed the bug was fixed! I assume proper support for medium font weights was added for `Text` but not in the duplicated code for `TextInput`.

Summary:
[Android] [Fixed] - Use HYPHENATION_FREQUENCY_NONE instead of HYPHENATION_FREQUENCY_NORMAL to measure text
The text must be measured with HYPHENATION_FREQUENCY_NONE instead of HYPHENATION_FREQUENCY_NORMAL, since ReactTextView has hyphenation frequency set to HYPHENATION_FREQUENCY_NONE. These two values must match, otherwise the measured height of text we return from the Yoga measure function might be wrong.
Even though the TextView [documentation](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView#setHyphenationFrequency(int)) says that the default hyphenation frequency is HYPHENATION_FREQUENCY_NORMAL before Android Q, it's not true for TextViews instantiated in code (the default value is set from the theme which is missing in case of ReactTextView).
See the screenshots below where the text is measured incorrectly which causes the last line to be cut off.
I extracted the value to a class member variable because I'm planning to expose the hyphenationFrequency prop for the Text component so that it can be configured on Android (as requested by this Github issue: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/17199).

Summary:
D14014668 introduced support for nesting views within Text on Android. Part of the implementation involved accessing the UIManagerModule from ReactTextView through context. This doesn't work in bridgeless RN because we have no UIManagerModule, and the ReactContext has no Catalyst instance. Trying to access the Catalyst instance from ReactContext throws an exception if it doesn't exist, so i'm just adding a simple check here to make sure the instance exists before proceeding.
This means that this feature won't work in bridgeless mode, but that's ok for now - eventually we want to change the way this works so that it doesn't rely on accessing views in Java, which is potentially unsafe (there's nothing to stop you from mutating the views, and cpp/js would never know about it).

Changelog: [Android] [FIXED] - Fix backgroundColor top level prop of TextInput
This diff fixes two issues with the `backgroundColor` top level property of TextInput on Android:
* Now it is possible to set a **string** value for the top-level `backgroundColor` property of TextInput (crashed the app previously):
```
<TextInput backgroundColor="#ffccbb">Hello, React Native</TextInput>
```
* Now it's possible to set an **integer** value for the top-level `backgroundColor` property of TextInput (had no effect previously):
```
<TextInput backgroundColor={0xffccbbff}>Hello, React Native</TextInput>
```
A `customType = "Color"` annotation parameter must be provided for `ReactBaseTextShadowNode.setBackgroundColor(...)` since the color value must be previously processed in JS before sending it over the bridge to the native code. The JS code will parse the color value and return the proper ARGB color integer to the native platforms (https://fburl.com/uqup52tn).
Without providing the custom type for the background color, if a string value is set for the top-level `backgroundColor` property in the JS code, the Android code will crash since it expects an integer value for the color in `ReactBaseTextShadowNode.setBackgroundColor(...)`, but a string will be passed from JS without any conversion and there will be a `ClassCastException` thrown. If an integer value without the alpha component (like `0xffccbb`) is set, the Android native view would get an integer color value with its alpha component set to `0x00`, which means a transparent color.
On a side note: the alpha component of a color must always be set when using an integer value for `backgroundColor` since the JS code, while processing the color type, shifts the rightmost 8 bytes (alpha component) to the leftmost position. If those 8 bytes are not the alpha component, you will get the wrong color in the end. It doesn't seem to be a problem for string values of `backgroundColor` though.

- Just copy font files in res/font and use it specifying filename (without extension) in fontFamily
- Define custom font-family using XML file (in res/font) and font files, it may have many weights and styles. See PR for example.
- Define configuration to download fonts from online font providers, and use it.

Potential breaking change: The signature of ReactShadowNode's onBeforeLayout method was changed
- Before: public void onBeforeLayout()
- After: public void onBeforeLayout(NativeViewHierarchyOptimizer nativeViewHierarchyOptimizer)
Implements same feature as this iOS PR: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/7304
Previously, only Text and Image could be nested within Text. Now, any view can be nested within Text. One restriction of this feature is that developers must give inline views a width and a height via the style prop.
Previously, inline Images were supported via FrescoBasedReactTextInlineImageSpan. To get support for nesting views within Text, we create one special kind of span per inline view. This span is called TextInlineViewPlaceholderSpan. It is the same size as the inline view. Its job is just to occupy space -- it doesn't render any visual. After the text is rendered, we query the Android Layout object associated with the TextView to find out where it has positioned each TextInlineViewPlaceholderSpan. We then position the views to be at those locations.
One tricky aspect of the implementation is that the Text component needs to be able to render native children (the inline views) but the Android TextView cannot have children. This is solved by having the native parent of the ReactTextView also host the inline views. Implementation-wise, this was accomplished by extending the NativeViewHierarchyOptimizer to handle this case. The optimizer now handles these cases:
- Node is not in the native tree. An ancestor must host its children.
- Node is in the native tree and it can host its own children.
- (new) Node is in the native tree but it cannot host its own children. An ancestor must host both this node and its children.
I added the `onInlineViewLayout` event which is useful for writing tests for verifying that the inline views are positioned properly.
Limitation: Clipping
----------
If Text's height/width is small such that an inline view doesn't completely fit, the inline view may still be fully visible due to hoisting (the inline view isn't actually parented to the Text which has the limited size. It is parented to an ancestor which may have a different clipping rectangle.). Prior to this change, layout-only views had a similar limitation.

Equivalent of this iOS PR: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/20915
Motivation:
----------
Whenever a user changes the system font size to its maximum allowable setting, React Native apps that allow font scaling can become unusable because the text gets too big. Experimenting with a native app like iMessage on iOS, the font size used for non-body text (e.g. header, navigational elements) is capped while the body text (e.g. text in the message bubbles) is allowed to grow.
This PR introduces a new prop on `<Text>` and `<TextInput>` called `maxFontSizeMultiplier`. This enables devs to set the maximum allowed text scale factor on a Text/TextInput. The default is 0 which means no limit.

Summary:
For certain style props, each time any style prop changed, the previous version of the style would remain. For example, if you passed `"underline"` for `textDecorationLine` on a `TextInput` and then later passed `undefined` for `textDecorationLine`, the underline would remain.
We solved this problem before in https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/de586bfa186289114974674bc2aece462f40393e. The fix was to use `manageSpans` to remove the old spans we added before adding the new spans. However, that fix hardcoded the list of spans to remove. Every span type that was introduced since that commit is affected by this bug:
- CustomLetterSpacingSpan
- CustomLineHeightSpan
- CustomTextTransformSpan
- ShadowStyleSpan
- StrikethroughSpan
- UnderlineSpan
- TextInlineImageSpan
The reason this bug was reintroduced is `ReactBaseTextShadowNode` is responsible for adding spans and `ReactEditText` is responsible for removing spans. These classes fell out of sync.
This fix attempts a more robust solution. Every span that React Native adds to text now implements the `ReactSpan` interface. `manageSpans` deletes all spans that React Native adds by targeting the ones that implement `ReactSpan`. `ReactBaseTextShadowNode.SetSpanOperation` has been updated so that it's a compiler error to add a span that doesn't implement `ReactSpan`.

Summary:
If you set `letterSpacing` on an outer text and then set `fontSize` on an inner text, the wrong `letterSpacing` will be rendered.
Here's an example:
```
<Text style={{ fontSize: 10, letterSpacing: 10 }}>
<Text style={{ fontSize: 20 }}>Some text</Text>
</Text>
```
`fontSize` affects letter spacing. In this case, the bug is that setting `fontSize` to `20` doesn't cause the letter spacing to be recalculated.
Notice that the logic for applying letter spacing only applies it if the node has a different value for `getEffectiveLetterSpacing()` than its parent. The problem is that `getEffectiveLetterSpacing()` doesn't represent the final letter spacing value -- it doesn't take `fontSize` into account. Consequently, it sometimes incorrectly skips applying letter spacing as illustrated above.
The fix is to ensure `getEffectiveLetterSpacing()` represents the final rendered letter spacing value. To do this, some of the letter spacing calculation code was moved from `CustomLetterSpacingSpan` to `getEffectiveLetterSpacing()`.

Summary:
Purpose
----------
This commit fixes a bug and prepares us for adding support for the `maxContentSizeMultiplier` prop (it's currently only supported on iOS).
Details
----------
Today we don't explicitly track inheritance of text props. Instead we rely on `SpannableStringBuilder` to handle this for us. Consider this example:
```
<Text style={{fontSize: 10}}>
<Text style={{letterSpacing: 5}}>
...
</Text>
</Text>
```
In today's implementation, the inner text doesn't know about `fontSize` (i.e. its `mFontSize` instance variable is `Float.NaN`). But everything works properly because the outer `Text` told `SpannableStringBuilder` to apply the font size across the entire string of text.
However, today's approach breaks down when computing the value to apply to the `SpannableStringBuilder` depends on multiple props. Suppose that RN Android supported the `maxContentSizeMultiplier` prop. Then calculating the font size to apply to the `SpannableStringBuilder` would involve both the `fontSize` prop and the `maxContentSizeMultiplier` prop. If `fontSize` was set on an outer `Text` and `maxContentSizeMultiplier` was set on an inner `Text` then the inner `Text` wouldn't be able to calculate the font size to apply to the `SpannableStringBuilder` because the outer `Text's` `fontSize` prop isn't available to it.
The `TextAttributes` class solves this problem. Every `Text` has a `TextAttributes` instance which stores its text props. During rendering, a child's `TextAttributes` is combined with its parent's and handed down the tree. In this way, during rendering a `Text` has access to the relevant text props from itself and its ancestors.
This design is inspired by the [`RCTTextAttributes`](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/7197aa026b6d262faa8f4dc6bb3e591f860cdc95/Libraries/Text/RCTTextAttributes.m) class from RN iOS.
Bug Fix
----------
This refactoring happens to fix a bug. Today, when setting `fontSize` on nested Text, `allowFontScaling` is always treated as though it is true regardless of the value on the root `Text`. For example, the following snippets should render "hello" identically, Instead, the bottom snippet renders "hello" as though `allowFontScaling` is true.
```
<Text allowFontScaling={false} style={{fontSize: 50}}>hello</Text>
<Text allowFontScaling={false}><Text style={{fontSize: 50}}>hello</Text></Text>
```
(The repro assumes you've increased your device's font setting so that the font size multiplier is not 1.0.)
Introducing the `TextAttributes` class fixed this. It forced us to think about how inheritance should work for `allowFontScaling`. In the new implementation, `Text` components use the value of `allowFontScaling` from the outermost `Text` component. This matches the behavior on iOS (the `allowFontScaling` prop gets ignored on virtual text nodes because it doesn't appear [in this list](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/3749da13127cb7455d533cb2bc5f2cf37470c0c7/Libraries/Text/Text.js#L266-L269).)
