FlatList > Orientation change > Different Item Heights for Portrait and Landscape Do Not Persist Scroll Position Correctly

Description

render items have a different height (landscape = 50 portrait = 200)

When scrolling down a list of flat list items, when the orientation is changed (from portrait to landscape and vise versa), the current scroll position is incorrect.

It seems to retail the current scroll position in pixels and not by the viewable items that were present pre orientation change?

Note that if you're at the top of the list, there is no issue. It's only when you have scrolled down the list.

I have tried capturing the top viewable item on onViewableItemChanged and attempting to use the ref's scrollToIndex, but to no avail.

Steps to reproduce

Install and execute the application
Scroll down the list
Change orientation
The previously viewable items are no longer in view

Screenshots and Videos

Bắt đầu bằng cách chạy reproducer flatlist-orientiation được liên kết và quan sát FlatList sau khi cuộn và thay đổi hướng. So sánh hành vi này với các lần thử onViewableItemChanged và scrollToIndex đã được báo cáo; được xem là hoàn thành khi các mục trước đó có thể nhìn thấy vẫn còn trong vùng hiển thị sau khi chuyển đổi giữa chế độ dọc và ngang trên Android và iOS.
