Jonny Burger a2f8b9c36e Set black as default text color for <TextInput/> on iOS (#28708)
Summary:
This is a follow-up pull request to https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/28280 (reviewed by shergin).
This pull request tried to solve the problem of the default color in a TextInput in dark mode on iOS being white instead of black. I got suggested to solve the problem not on the level of RCTTextAttributes, but on the level of RCTUITextField.

Setting `self.textColor = [UIColor black];` in the constructor did not work, because it gets overwritten by nil in `RCTBaseTextInputView.m`. There I implemented the logic that if NSForegroundColorAttributeName color is nil then the color is being set to black. I think the `defaultTextAttributes` property confuses here, because it ends up being the effective text attributes, e.g. if I unconditionally set the default text color to black, it cannot be changed in React Native anymore. So I put the nil check in.

## Changelog

[iOS] [Fixed] - TextInput color has the same default (#000) on iOS whether in light or dark mode
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/28708

Test Plan:
I have manually tested the following:
- The default text color in light mode is black
- The default text color in dark mode is black
- The color can be changed using the `style.color` attribute
- Setting the opacity to 0.5 results in the desired behavior, the whole TextInput becoming half the opacity.
– Setting the `style.color` to rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) works as intended, creating a half-opaque text color.
