Updated react-native-recyclerview-list hash to include selection fix

[mzorz]

Fixes #267 for PlainText blocks on Android.

[EDITED]
was: "fixes #135 for both RichText and PlainText blocks on Android", updated to reflect as per #265 (comment).

See wordpress-mobile/react-native-recyclerview-list#11 for more information.

To test:
Before:

1. open the demo app
2. try to select text on RichText and PlainText-backed blocks (Header, Paragraph are rich-text, while Code and Read More are based on PlainText)
3. observe you can't select text (contextual menu doesn't appear, can't copy, etc.)

After:

1. open the demo app
2. try to select text on RichText and PlainText-backed blocks (Header, Paragraph are rich-text, while Code and Read More are based on PlainText)
3. observe you can select, copy, paste and such.

Leaving a reminder here - when reviewing this PR, remember this does not fix #251 which is tracked separately 👍

Awesome development @mzorz , thanks for digging deep to fix this issue!

This seems to work OK for me on my Pixel 2 XL (Android 9) when used via Vysor, that is, when using the mouse from my laptop. But I still see this issue when using the phone with my hands. The RichText blocks seem to not acquire focus/caret even though the block itself does get selected (I can see the inline toolbar appearing on each). I wonder if you see similar behavior on any of your devices.

Also tried this on my Android v7.1.2 Nexus 5X and what I notice there is that the caret is acquired by the RichText block (altough a few times out of the total is not) but can't select text by long pressing.

In both phones, TextInput blocks seem to work fine, both in terms of receiving the caret and selecting text.

Edit: thought of giving my Android 8.0 Galaxy S7 a go as well and the behavior is identical to the Android 9 Pixel 2 XL above.

Tested on Android 8.0.0 - Samsung S9, and the behavior is identical to what reported above by @hypest.

Thanks for the reports here @daniloercoli and @hypest ! I actually did not test on the real device 😬 - will get back to you after checking myself and trying some few bullets I may have 🙇

[mzorz]

Just a note here that tested the RecyclerListView demo project PR on a Pixel 2 and it seems to be working alright for me. Will continue looking on the Gutenberg demo now 👍

Confirmed RichText is not fixed by this, but PlainText is 🤦‍♂️ . In fact that's what I have been trying all along, and only tried RichText on the emulator. I'll create another ticket for the proper handling of PlainText selection and associate this PR to it as this PR addresses such situation, and continue to work on #135 (RichText) on another PR.

[mzorz]

PR description has been updated to reflect it fixes the problem for the RN PlainText component only (#267)

[mzorz]

Closing this PR for now, as we're moving towards use of FlatList and removing RecyclerViewList as indicated in #256 (review)
