Nick Gerleman ba4c2f5db0 Minimize EditText Spans 5/9: Strikethrough and Underline (#36544)
Summary:
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/36544

This is part of a series of changes to minimize the number of spans committed to EditText, as a mitigation for platform issues on Samsung devices. See this [GitHub thread]( https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/35936#issuecomment-1411437789) for greater context on the platform behavior.

This change makes us apply strikethrough and underline as paint flags to the underlying EditText, instead of just the spans. We then opt ReactUnderlineSpan and ReactStrikethroughSpan into being strippable.

This does actually create visual behavior changes, where child text will inherit any underline or strikethrough of the root EditText (including if the child specifies `textDecorationLine: "none"`. The new behavior is consistent with both iOS and web though, so it seems like more of a bugfix than a regression.
