 Patching `RCTRefreshControl.m` and `RCTRefreshControl.h` to add a new `forwarderBeginRefreshing` method to the class.
 This method is used by `ExpoScrollForwarder` to initiate a refresh of the underlying `UIScrollView` from inside that
 module.

+## TextInput Patch - `selectTextOnFocus` fix
+
+Patching `RCTBaseTextInputView.m` to fix an issue where `selectTextOnFocus` does not work as expected on iOS 17. This
+patch _only_ fixes the Paper version of `TextInput`. If we migrate to Fabric and the fix has not been made upstream,
+we can apply the same fix. See https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/44307.
