[Android] Dimensions.get('screen').scale reports primary display density on secondary displays, breaking Fabric layout

Description

On Android, when a React Native activity runs on a secondary display (Samsung DeX, external monitor via desktop mode, ChromeOS desktop windowing, virtual/emulator display via am start --display N), the activity renders at the wrong scale. Content is laid out as if the surface were larger than the activity window, the visible region is a fraction of the window with the rest left black, and text rendering is sub-pixel-blurry.

Dimensions.get('window') and useWindowDimensions() report the activity's actual display correctly. Only Dimensions.get('screen').scale is wrong: it reports the device's primary-display density regardless of which display the activity is on.

window: { width: 1600, height: 720, scale: 1.5 }   ← matches the activity's display
screen: { width: 800,  height: 360, scale: 3   }   ← primary display's scale

Steps to reproduce

1. Boot a phone-form-factor AVD (verified on Pixel 9 Pro, API 36).
2. Attach a virtual secondary display at a different density than the primary (Pixel 9 Pro is 3.0×, 240dpi on the secondary is enough):

   adb emu multidisplay add 1 2400 1080 240 0
   

3. Install the reproducer, start Metro, launch onto the secondary display:

   cd ReproducerApp && npm install && npm run android && npm start &
   adb shell am force-stop com.reproducerapp
   adb shell am start -n com.reproducerapp/.MainActivity --display 3
   

Expected: screen.scale === window.scale when the activity is on a single display.

Actual: screen.scale is the primary's density; the React surface lays out at the primary's scale into a window that doesn't have that scale.

Same with an app-side workaround that overwrites DisplayMetricsHolder with the activity's actual metrics — screen.scale matches window.scale, text renders crisply:

Bắt đầu với rn-secondary-display-repro bắt buộc và tái hiện sự không khớp bằng các lệnh adb emu và am start được liệt kê. Theo dõi đường đi Android điền dữ liệu cho DisplayMetricsHolder và so sánh các metric của nó với metric display của activity. Hoàn thành khi Dimensions.get('screen').scale khớp với window.scale trên một display phụ duy nhất và surface Fabric được render ở mật độ chính xác.
