[Android] Timers do not run when using HeadlessJsTaskService

Inizia dal punto di ingresso HeadlessJsTaskService e dal percorso di pianificazione dei timer Android che utilizza Choreographer. Riproduci il problema con il reproducer obbligatorio osservando Logcat, quindi verifica che i timer continuino a essere eseguiti in background senza alterare il comportamento esistente in foreground.

Description

Hello!

I noticed that when using HeadlessJsTaskService, the timers do not run as expected. I did some investigations and I found out that React Native uses Android's Choreographer to schedule the timers.
I am testing the app on a real device: Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra.
Apparently, Samsung's OneUI pauses the Choreographer when the app goes into background.
In order to fix this, React Native should use another technique to get "ticks", like a Handler or something, at least for the timers (I saw UI events are also processed using Choreographer).

Steps to reproduce

1. Install the application using "yarn android"
2. Open up Android Studio with Logcat open
3. Wait for the background service to start
4. Put the app in foreground by going on the home screen
5. Look in the logs and wait for the line with "CoreRune.SYSPERF_ACTIVE_APP_BBA_ENABLE : stop animation in background states"
