Summary
This change fixes an Android TextInput issue where long-pressing text to start selection could leave the soft keyboard hidden. The native view now requests the IME when selection changes from a collapsed cursor to a non-collapsed selection while the input is focused, matching the expected editable-text behavior.
Changelog
[Android] [Fixed] - Show the soft keyboard when long-press starts text selection in TextInput.
