Summary:
Purpose
----------
This commit fixes a bug and prepares us for adding support for the `maxContentSizeMultiplier` prop (it's currently only supported on iOS).
Details
----------
Today we don't explicitly track inheritance of text props. Instead we rely on `SpannableStringBuilder` to handle this for us. Consider this example:
```
<Text style={{fontSize: 10}}>
<Text style={{letterSpacing: 5}}>
...
</Text>
</Text>
```
In today's implementation, the inner text doesn't know about `fontSize` (i.e. its `mFontSize` instance variable is `Float.NaN`). But everything works properly because the outer `Text` told `SpannableStringBuilder` to apply the font size across the entire string of text.
However, today's approach breaks down when computing the value to apply to the `SpannableStringBuilder` depends on multiple props. Suppose that RN Android supported the `maxContentSizeMultiplier` prop. Then calculating the font size to apply to the `SpannableStringBuilder` would involve both the `fontSize` prop and the `maxContentSizeMultiplier` prop. If `fontSize` was set on an outer `Text` and `maxContentSizeMultiplier` was set on an inner `Text` then the inner `Text` wouldn't be able to calculate the font size to apply to the `SpannableStringBuilder` because the outer `Text's` `fontSize` prop isn't available to it.
The `TextAttributes` class solves this problem. Every `Text` has a `TextAttributes` instance which stores its text props. During rendering, a child's `TextAttributes` is combined with its parent's and handed down the tree. In this way, during rendering a `Text` has access to the relevant text props from itself and its ancestors.
This design is inspired by the [`RCTTextAttributes`](7197aa026b/Libraries/Text/RCTTextAttributes.m) class from RN iOS.
Bug Fix
----------
This refactoring happens to fix a bug. Today, when setting `fontSize` on nested Text, `allowFontScaling` is always treated as though it is true regardless of the value on the root `Text`. For example, the following snippets should render "hello" identically, Instead, the bottom snippet renders "hello" as though `allowFontScaling` is true.
```
<Text allowFontScaling={false} style={{fontSize: 50}}>hello</Text>
<Text allowFontScaling={false}><Text style={{fontSize: 50}}>hello</Text></Text>
```
(The repro assumes you've increased your device's font setting so that the font size multiplier is not 1.0.)
Introducing the `TextAttributes` class fixed this. It forced us to think about how inheritance should work for `allowFontScaling`. In the new implementation, `Text` components use the value of `allowFontScaling` from the outermost `Text` component. This matches the behavior on iOS (the `allowFontScaling` prop gets ignored on virtual text nodes because it doesn't appear [in this list](3749da1312/Libraries/Text/Text.js (L266-L269)).)
