workaround for empty preview for new architecture

[kioltk]

hello there,

there are a few separate issues where people complain about empty preview in new architecture, but still no fix.

for some reason there is a strange workaround - simply add nativeID with any non-empty string to your preview component

<ContextMenu
  actions={actions}
  onPress={(e) => {
  }}
>
  <View nativeID="WORKAROUND">
    <Text>Hello world</Text>
  </View>
</ContextMenu>

Your view is being collapsed by the React Native engine. Setting a nativeID has a side effect of disabling the collapse, but you can also set collapsible={false} on either view to fix this properly.
