a11y(iOS): nested `<Text role="link" />` not focusable on iOS

Description

<Text role="link" /> element nested in <Text /> is not focusable by screen reader on iOS.

Example code

<Text style={styles.text}>
  Regular Text
  <Text role="link" onPress={handlePress}>Link Text</Text>
</Text>

On iOS it focuses only the top-level Text element, there is no focus on child text element with link role.

on Android it focuses first on top-level Text element (announcing: "contains links"), then focuses on child text element with link role.

This is especially hard to solve, if I would want to have 2+ links inside the text.

Steps to reproduce

1. Clone https://github.com/mdjastrzebski/ReproLinkText
2. Run under screen reader on iOS (& Android for comparison)

Commencez par le reproducteur obligatoire ReproLinkText et exécutez-le avec VoiceOver sur iOS, en comparant son comportement avec Text imbriqué à celui d’Android. Suivez le point d’entrée d’accessibilité de React Native Text impliqué dans les éléments imbriqués role="link" ; c’est terminé lorsque le lien enfant reçoit le focus sur iOS, y compris lorsqu’il y a plusieurs liens, tandis que le comportement existant sur Android reste intact.
