TextInput: Fixed autoscroll to cursor on Android
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Summary:
This feature was disabled for multiline textinputs in D3528202 ... seems without a good reason.
The broken autoscroll-to-cursor feature is terribly harmful and counter-intuitive in ALL cases.
I also add a contentSize tracking in the example app to make sure that it is unaffected by this change.
