[iOS][Fabric] numberOfLines={1} with CJK text collapses to first character + ellipsis when tail truncation is required (0.86.0)

Description

On iOS with the New Architecture (RN 0.86.0), <Text numberOfLines={1}> collapses to just the first character + ellipsis (e.g. 中文标题（银色示例、金色文字） → 中...) when all of the following hold:

1. the string needs tail truncation (wider than the container), and
2. the string contains a full-width bracket pair （…）, and
3. the string ends with the closing bracket ）.

Line wrapping of the same string (no numberOfLines) breaks at exactly the container edge, and middle / head / clip ellipsization all work — only the tail truncation path collapses. Android renders all cases correctly.

Minimal reproducer

No flex involved — a fixed-width box is enough:

import React from 'react';
import { View, Text } from 'react-native';

const CASES = [
  '中文标题（银色示例、金色文字）', // ❌ BUG: renders as 中... (first char + ellipsis)
  '中文标题（银色示例、金色文字）字', // ✅ same + 1 trailing han char: truncates correctly
  '一段较长的中文标题文字内容例）', // ✅ unpaired closing bracket: correct
  '一段较长的中文标题文字内容示例。', // ✅ ends with full-width period: correct
  'Mechanical watch gold (silver)', // ✅ ASCII closing paren: correct
];

export default function App() {
  return (
    <View style={{ flex: 1, justifyContent: 'center', alignItems: 'center' }}>
      <View style={{ width: 240, borderWidth: 1 }}>
        {CASES.map((s, i) => (
          <Text key={i} numberOfLines={1} style={{ fontSize: 17 }}>
            {s}
          </Text>
        ))}
      </View>
    </View>
  );
}

Reproducer: Open in Expo Snack (iOS) — same code as above, loaded via the Snack code URL parameter.

Evidence / trigger characterization

Measured on device via onTextLayout (lines[0].width, container 240pt, fontSize 17):

String	Shape	lines[0].width	Result
中文标题（银色示例、金色文字）	bracket pair, ends with ）	34	❌ collapses to 中...
中文标题（银色示例、金色文字）字	same + trailing han char	231	✅
一段较长的中文标题文字内容例）	） at end, no opening （	236	✅
一段较长的中文标题文字内容示例。	ends with 。	236	✅
Mechanical watch gold (silver)	ASCII ) at end	231	✅
一段较长的中文标题文字内容示例	pure han, slight overflow	236	✅
long CJK strings overflowing by a lot (with or without brackets mid-string)	—	~236	✅

Further observations for the failing case:

• onTextLayout reports a single line whose text is the full string but whose width is ≈ 34pt (first glyph + ellipsis), while onLayout of the <Text> reports the correct frame width (240pt).
• Without numberOfLines, the same string wraps at exactly the container edge — line breaking is correct; only tail truncation collapses.
• ellipsizeMode="middle" | "head" | "clip" all render correctly for the same string.
• Independent of font weight, explicit lineHeight, lineBreakStrategyIOS (none / standard), and layout context (fixed-width box, flex column, flex row all reproduce identically).
• Android (same JS) renders all cases correctly.

Expected behavior

Fills the available width before ellipsizing, e.g. 中文标题（银色示例、金色... — as Android does.

Actual behavior

Renders 中... (first character + ellipsis) with the rest of the 240pt frame empty.

Workaround

Platform-gate the ellipsize mode for potentially-CJK single-line text: ellipsizeMode={Platform.OS === "ios" ? "middle" : "tail"}.

Version / environment

• react-native 0.86.0 (New Architecture / Fabric), Hermes
• Reproduces: physical iPhone on iOS 26.5.2 — both in an Expo SDK 57 development client (RN 0.86.0) and in Expo Go (SDK 57) opening the Snack above
• Does NOT reproduce: the same Snack in Snack's embedded iOS simulator — but note that the embedded simulator only offers SDK 54 (RN 0.81.x) (SDK 55 is listed but errors out), so this contrast varies both the RN version and the OS version and cannot isolate which one matters
• Interpretation: the non-repro on the SDK 54 simulator is consistent with a regression introduced somewhere in RN 0.82–0.86 (e.g. the truncation-pipeline changes), but an iOS 26.x TextKit behavior change cannot be excluded either — we have no second iOS device/OS to separate the two
• Android with the same JS is unaffected

Possibly related

• #57499 (NSRangeException in processTruncatedAttributedText — same truncation pipeline)
• #57501 (clipping of last-line orphan token without numberOfLines — possibly the same backtracking logic)

首先，在运行 RN 0.86.0 的实体 iOS 设备上复现 CJK 括号情况，然后检查 Fabric 的尾部截断路径，包括 processTruncatedAttributedText 以及相关 issue #57499 和 #57501。当失败字符串在尾部省略前填满可用宽度，同时列出的控制用例仍然正确时，即视为完成。
