Subject: [PATCH] Android: a TextInput with its context menu hidden opens no
 right-click menu

A mouse right-click on an Android TextInput opens the context menu that
Editor fills with Cut, Copy, Paste, Select all and the other text
actions. ReactEditText honours contextMenuHidden only in its action mode
callback, so a right-click still opened that menu with the flag set.

ReactEditText adds no items to its context menu while contextMenuHidden
is set, and the platform opens no menu without items: not on a
right-click, and not from anything else that asks the view for its
context menu.
