fix(Android)!: overflowing text in native header #2325

Description

Caution

This PR includes BREAKING CHANGES

Corresponding PR in react-navigation:

Fixes #1946

This PR refactors the header config component to use flex-box model instead of absolute positioning in Yoga layer. This is required so that the Yoga layouts children of header config with respect to one another (not absolutely), so that the title can be properly truncated.

In the end, the subviews are laid out by system anyway, thus we send additional information, such as padding / margins from native side to the shadow tree, so that we can adjust for these in Yoga layout.

Important

This PR introduces a bug in very first few frames - before the information from HostTree is propagated to ShadowTree the header title might not be truncated properly. This is known issue and based on the same mechanism and "jumping content" due to not including header dimensions in first Yoga layout.

Changes

Test code and steps to reproduce

I've tried to test these changes carefully, however there still might be some bugs. It would be nice if we could get rid of them during beta-phase of 4.0. Below I paste my test matrix I conducted on Test1649 on both platforms and architectures.

Checklist

  • Included code example that can be used to test this change
  • Ensured that CI passes

* Add PoC for Fabric fix (not entirely working yet)
* Move header inset updating code to the header config - it didn't make
  much sense for this code to live in screen.
* Moved all the code fix from `viewDidLayoutSubviews` to separate method
* Added few helper methods on HeaderConfig
in this commit react-navigation is on v6 branch.
You need to change it back to v7 and apply changes to the v7 branch.
This is the reference PR to v6:

**Motivation**

Together with corresponding PR in `react-native-screens`:

* software-mansion/react-native-screens#2325

this PR fixes
software-mansion/react-native-screens#1946

tldr: text truncation in header title should work properly from now on. 

This PR changes the layout model of the native-header. Previously Yoga
has been informed that the children are positioned absolutely and its
only responsibility was to determine the view sizes. Right now, on Yoga
layer (but not in native layer) the header is laid out with flexbox
model.

**Test plan**

I've conducted the tests manually on `TestHeaderTitle` test screen in
`FabricExample` application in `react-native-screens` repository.

Below is the spreadsheet from these tests.

Looks great! 🎉
Just a question from me

Don't we need to center subviews horizontally?

justifyContent centers the elements horizontally in this case.

Note that justifyContent centers the elements with respect to the "main axis". Due to flexDirection: 'row', main axis is the horizontal axis.

Works fine, cause `title` is passed as regular string to native side,
where it is simply assigned to `toolbar.title` & `AppCompatTextView` is
used by Android.

Title despite being a plain string is wrapped inside `HeaderTitle`
component & rendered as a `Text` inside `SubviewLeft` together with
`HeaderLeft`. The text overflows, because subview is positioned as
`absolute`: it does not respect native toolbar's content inset (left
padding), as Yoga has no information of it & the text view does measure
itself with width of whole containing box (which is the `HeaderConfig`
which has width of full screen).

What's also important to notice is that in this configuration
`backButtonIcon` is disabled.

Works ok, because text is assigned to `toolbar.title`, thus
`AppCompatTextView` is in use & native layout takes care of truncating
the text & respecting the `HeaderRight`. We good here.

Text is put together with `HeaderLeft` into `SubviewLeft` & rendered
inside `Text`. Subviews are positioned as `absolute` & Yoga measures
text with full width of the screen & does not take into account
`absolute` siblings.

Notice that in the second row of screenshots `backButtonIcon` is also
not present.

## Description

This PR fixes headerConfig's incorrect layout with custom subviews after
recent changes in
#2325.

> [!note]
@kkafar: 
Previously, before #2325, all children of the headerConfig component
have been positioned absolutely, thus the headerConfig was always of
height 0, not impacting layout of other components. After #2325,
headerConfig's children are positioned using flexbox. This implies that
it has no longer height of 0, thus it impacts the layout of other other
elements, in particular `ScreenContentWrapper`, which is offset by the
height of the highest header config subview.
>
> The initial idea to solve this was to set `height: 0; overflow:
visible`, however, for some yet unknown reason the subviews become
invisible with such styles set of headerConfig. Note that if you set the
`height: 1` it works as expected.
>
> Due to above hindrance we decided to position the headerConfig
approximately at the position of native header, by setting `top: -100%`.
To prevent the headerConfig from blocking gestures we set
`pointerEvents: 'box-none'`.
>
> In the end I want to note, that it would be best if we came out with
solution that excludes headerConfig from layout as it was before #2325.

## Changes

- added `Test2395.tsx` repro
- adjusted headerConfig's styles
