[iOS] TextInput fontFamily issue with some keyboards in iOS

Description

I'm not sure what the main cause of the issue is, but I ran into an issue with CJK keyboards in iOS, that the fontFamily is not set correctly.

const [text, setText] = useState("");

const fontFamily = !text ? "ZenMaruGothic" : "IMHyemin";

return (
  <SafeAreaView>
    <View style={styles.view}>
      <TextInput
        multiline
        defaultValue={text}
        onChangeText={setText}
        placeholder="フォントテスト"
        style={[styles.textInput, { fontFamily }]}
      />
     {/* ... */}

When the text is typed on keyboards having "pending states" . That is, the state in which the text can be modified by the additional keystrokes and confirmed by the user to be finalized. Examples include:

• with the Chinese pinyin keyboard, one types nh and selects 你好 to finalize the input
• with the standard Korean (qwerty) keyboard, keystrokes ㄱㅏ yield 가 (U+AC00) in its pending states, and an additional keystroke ㄴ modifies it to be 간 (U+AC04)

As you can see in the video, when typed using the standard English keyboard, at the first keystroke, the letter is correctly styled with the provided font. But using Chinese/Japanese keyboards, the first keystroke does not change the font and the following keystrokes change it. Even worse, using the Korean keyboard, the font of the TextInput is not changed at all.

Steps to reproduce

Expo snack: https://snack.expo.dev/@kanukim/textinputfonttest

Issues with Korean characters:

1. Open the project in an iOS device
2. Add a Korean Keyboard (Standard)
3. Type "한글" (FYI, you can type it by pressing ㅎㅏㄴㄱㅡㄹ in sequence)
4. The fonts are not set correctly (as the text input below)

You may test the issue with various keyboards including Japanese (romaji) and Chinese (pinyin) inputs.

Please focus on the missing font changes at the first keystrokes.

Beginnen Sie mit dem verknüpften Expo Snack und reproduzieren Sie das Problem auf iOS mit englischen, chinesischen Pinyin-, japanischen und koreanischen Tastaturen. Untersuchen Sie das Verhalten von Fabric TextInput im Zusammenhang mit ausstehenden Kompositionszuständen; das Problem ist behoben, wenn sich fontFamily bei den ersten relevanten Tastenanschlägen ändert und für abgeschlossene CJK-Eingaben korrekt bleibt.
