0.83 regressions (TextInput, Text)

[bigcupcoffee]

Description

I've noticed at least 2 regressions with 0.83

❗[attached video below] TextInput layout change issues: changing value on TextInput doesn't seem to update layout correctly and reposition the views around it. We mainly noticed it when using TextInput to vertically align the phone number prefix text (+1) with real input

Less important but still, fontWeight on iOS kinda snaps between Bold/Normal, completely ignoring values like 500 600. I noticed #54976 which seems to address this issue but I'm not 100% confident if that's the cause. Wanted to highlight it while I get the chance

Steps to reproduce

1. Init a fresh 0.83.1 app
2. Copy and paste the BrokenLayoutOnInputChanges component from the repro snack to the App.tsx and render it
3. Tap on the red area which toggles the TextInput value between +1 and +52 to see that it layouts it incorrectly
4. Optionally try running it on 0.82.1 and observe that it works fine
