TalkBack support for ScrollView accessibility announcements (list and grid) - Javascript Only Changes (#33180)

Summary:
This is the Javascript-only changes from D34518929 (dd6325b), split out for push safety. Original summary and test plan below:

This issue fixes [30977][17] . The Pull Request was previously published by [intergalacticspacehighway][13] with [31666][19].
The solution consists of:
1. Adding Javascript logic in the [FlatList][14], SectionList, VirtualizedList components to provide accessibility information (row and column position) for each cell in the method [renderItem][20] as a fourth parameter [accessibilityCollectionItem][21]. The information is saved on the native side in the AccessibilityNodeInfo and announced by TalkBack when changing row, column, or page ([video example][12]). The prop accessibilityCollectionItem is available in the View component which wraps each FlatList cell.
2. Adding Java logic in [ReactScrollView.java][16] and HorizontalScrollView to announce pages with TalkBack when scrolling up/down. The missing AOSP logic in [ScrollView.java][10] (see also the [GridView][11] example) is responsible for announcing Page Scrolling with TalkBack.

x [discussion on the additional container View around each FlatList cell][22]
x [commit adding prop getCellsInItemCount to VirtualizedList][23]

## Changelog

[Android] [Added] - Accessibility announcement for list and grid in FlatList

Pull Request resolved: #33180

Test Plan:
[1]. TalkBack announces pages and cells with Horizontal Flatlist in the Paper Renderer ([link][1])
[2]. TalkBack announces pages and cells with Vertical Flatlist in the Paper Renderer ([link][2])
[3]. `FlatList numColumns={undefined}` Should not trigger Runtime Error NoSuchKey exception columnCount when enabling TalkBack. ([link][3])
[4]. TalkBack announces pages and cells with Nested Horizontal Flatlist in the rn-tester app ([link][4])
