List jumping when sliding using maintainVisibleContentPosition on Android

Description

I use maintainVisibleContentPosition in the chat list. When sliding to view older chat messages, if a new message (Especially very long messages, exceeding the height of the screen) is inserted into the list, the (android) list will jump, but iOS will not.

I can reproduce it using the latest RN 0.72.6 and wrote a demo.

@janicduplessis Can this be fixed?

Beginne damit, die verlinkte flatlist-demo mit React Native 0.72.6 auszuführen und den Android-Sprung beim Durchblättern älterer Nachrichten zu reproduzieren. Verfolge die Android-Behandlung von maintainVisibleContentPosition und vergleiche sie mit dem Verhalten unter iOS. Als abgeschlossen gilt die Änderung, wenn das Einfügen einer sehr langen Nachricht die sichtbare Position unter Android nicht mehr unerwartet verändert.
