Set ReactTextInput's placeholder ellipsize mode

[mrousavy]

This is only a placeholder workaround for #29663.

The real solution would be to export a @ReactProp called ellipsizeMode, which will then take care of the placeholder ellipsize rendering.

how will this work in a multiline TextInput? Thanks a lot for the PR 🙏 ☮️

[mrousavy]

I haven't tried it yet, will do next week

[dyegolara]

Have you tried it yet?

[lemusthelroy]

Any ideas when this will get merged? Asking for a friend 👀

[KieranVieira]

+1 on this, curious on if this is still in the works @mrousavy

[mrousavy]

It's hard getting PRs merged when you're not a facebook employee. Don't know when (or if at all) they're gonna merge it, I'm just giving them the opportunity to do so.
If you benefit from my changes, fork react-native and apply them (or use patch-package) in the meantime

@mrousavy doesn't work for me :( any other solutions found? It's breaking the design.
