What changed
Migrated library + example app to RN 0.85.3 and Expo 56.
Removed legacy iOS text manager/shadow-view path and kept iOS implementation Fabric-only.
Updated Fabric C++ text layout code to RN 0.85 API names/symbols.
Updated JS internal RN view-config wiring for RN 0.85 internals.
Updated compatibility table/docs and lockfiles.
fix: switch text view config to RN 0.85 internals
Replaced removed ReactNativeViewAttributes usage with createViewConfig.
Added local typings for react-native/Libraries/NativeComponent/ViewConfig.
refactor(ios): remove legacy text manager and shadow view
Removed JBAnimatedTextManager.* and JBTextShadowView.* (legacy-arch-only).
fix(fabric): update paragraph text layout APIs for RN 0.85
MeasuredPreparedLayout -> MeasuredPreparedTextLayout
supportsPreparedLayout() -> supportsPreparedTextLayout()

-Fixed descriptor key linkage for TextLayoutManager.
chore: bump package and example to RN 0.85/Expo 56
Bumped package/example deps, peer range, docs, and lockfiles.
Why
RN 0.85 removes legacy architecture text classes/APIs used by this package. This PR aligns native + JS internals to current RN/Fabric behavior and keeps the package usable on modern RN with new architecture enabled.
Breaking changes
iOS old architecture support is removed.
New minimum React Native version: 0.85.3.
