[Fabric] Use container node to hide/show tree

This changes how we hide and show the contents of Offscreen boundaries
in the React Fabric renderer (persistent mode), and also Suspense
boundaries which use the same feature.=

The way it used to work was that when a boundary is hidden, in the
complete phase, instead of calling the normal `cloneInstance` method
inside `appendAllChildren`, we would call a forked method called
`cloneHiddenInstance` for each of the nearest host nodes within the
subtree. This design was largely based on how it works in React DOM
(mutation mode), where instead of cloning the nearest host nodes, we
mutate their `style.display` property.

The motivation for doing it this way in React DOM was because there's no
built-in browser API for hiding a collection of DOM nodes without
affecting their layout.

In Fabric, however, there is no such limitation, so we can instead wrap
in an extra host node and apply a hidden style.

The immediate motivation for this change is that Fabric on Android has a
view pooling mechanism for instances that relies on the assumption that
a current Fiber that is cloned and replaced by a new Fiber will never
appear in a future commit. When this assumption is broken, it may cause
crashes. In the current implementation, that can indeed happen when a
node that was previously hidden is toggled back to visible. Although
this change sidesteps the issue, we may introduce in other features in
the future that would benefit from being able to revert back to an older
node without cloning it again, such as animations.

The way I've implemented this is to insert an additional HostComponent
fiber as the child of each OffscreenComponent. The extra fiber is not
ideal — the way I'd prefer to do it is to attach the host instance to
the OffscreenComponent. However, the native Fabric implementation
currently expects a 1:1 correspondence between HostComponents and host
instances, so I've deferred that optimization to a future PR to derisk
fixing the Fabric pooling crash. I left a TODO in the host config with a
description of the remaining steps, but this alone should be sufficient
to unblock.
