Regression from #30972

[ishpaul777]

Proposal

Problem

Mute option not seen in notification prefrences when immediately is selected

Root cause

Here root cause behaviour of SectionList when we set initialScrollIndex to ">=" 2, Sectionlist just start at initialScrollIndex skip the rendering items before it (according to layout) and only render on scroll, in case of notification pref. page the items are limited no scroll event can be triggered so sectionlist wont render skipped items

(above root cause can be verified if we set a max width to notification page screen Wrapper and apply overscroll auto manually)

Screen.Recording.2023-11-11.at.3.19.08.AM.mov

Solution

we should apply the fix from #30972 selctively for cases when list is long and scrollable (EG. currency list) and revert back for other lists.

Code changes :
Introduce a prop shouldUseInitialScrollIndex and use it only for IOUCurrencySelection only (for now) until we realize to while other selectors Menus we want to use this.

  const scrollToFocusedIndexOnFirstRender = useCallback(() => {
        if (!firstLayoutRef.current) {
            return;
        }
        scrollToIndex(focusedIndex, false);
        firstLayoutRef.current = false;
    }, [focusedIndex, scrollToIndex]);
    
<SectionList
  // other props
  onLayout={shouldUseInitialScrollIndex ? handleFirstLayout : scrollToFocusedIndexOnFirstRender}
  // eslint-disable-next-line react/jsx-props-no-spreading
  {...(shouldUseInitialScrollIndex && {initialScrollIndex: initialFocusedIndex})}
 />

OR revert #30972 completely

Removing this line fixes this issue: (Not a real solution but just for testing purpose)

App/src/components/SelectionList/BaseSelectionList.js

Line 441 in ffe1c63

getItemLayout={getItemLayout}

So I can confirm that the root cause is related to combination of getItemLayout and initialScrollIndex.
When initialScrollIndex is set, previous items (index 0 - initialScrollIndex-2) are not rendered and thus getItemLayout callback is not called.
That's why this isn't noticeable when number of items are less than 3 (i.e. Language or Priority mode pages).
