Summary: The multiline text input view on macOS needs its own view hierarchy, wrapping the RCTUITextView in a scroll view to support all the features offered by the React TextInput component. This diff adds a wrapper class for RCTUITextView that provides the appropriate view hierarchy while still supporting the text input protocols required for text input. The wrapper forwards all unimplemented methods to the RCTUITextView so that it can be used as a direct substitute for the RCTUITextView. This allows us to reduce the custom changes need for macOS in RCTTextInputComponentView while re-using all the logic in RCTUITextView. Test Plan: Tested later in this stack.

Summary: Add a `responder` property to support assigning the first responder to the actual textfield/textview if the view is wrapped or not. The wrapped text view already implements this property. This diff brings the same functionality to the text field and declares it on the common protocol. Test Plan: Tested later in this stack.

Summary: This diff updates the core TextInput RN component to use the wrapped text view for multiline TextInput. Switching to `RCTWrappedTextView` enables correct `borderWidth` and `contentInsets` support for multi line text inputs while maintaining the same functionality for single line text input. Scrolling text views are also supported correctly, with vertical height dependent scrollers. Test Plan: - Build Zeratul with Fabric enabled. - Type in the search field to test the layout of the text contents - Type in the composer to test multi line support and the layout of the text contents | Before | After | |--| | https://pxl.cl/3Xrrx | https://pxl.cl/3Xrr9 | Reviewers: shawndempsey, #rn-desktop Reviewed By: shawndempsey Differential Revision: https://phabricator.intern.facebook.com/D51962396 Tasks: T167538822, T157889591
