Summary: X-link: facebook/react-native#42191 React native supports transforms and if a node has a transform it will [form a containing block for absolute descendants regardless of position type](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Containing_block#identifying_the_containing_block). So we need to pass that information into Yoga to ensure this happens. The verbiage for the field "alwaysFormsContainingBlock" is very specific. In a vacuum a node cannot simply "form a containing block". It only forms a containing block in reference to a different node. This can be illustrated in a scenario where we have a static node that is a flex container which has 1 absolute child and 1 relative child. This static node will form a containing block for the relative child but not the absolute one. We could just pass the information on rather something has a transform or not but Yoga is not supposed to know about transforms in general. As a result we have a notion of "always" forming a containing block. Since Yoga is a flexbox spec, non-absolute nodes' containing blocks will ways be their parent. If we add something like a transform to a node then that will also apply to absolute nodes - hence we can say the node will **always** form a CB, no matter who is the descendant.

Summary: Essentially undoing D51182861 that was put in place to support adding a default position type to Fabric. Previously I had already removed the code that set the default to something other than Yoga default, but I did not remove all this extra code that allows you to do that. Since we no longer need this we should remove it so as not to encourage messing with the defaults in such a way that they differ from Yoga defaults.

In a vacuum a node cannot simply "form a containing block". It only forms a containing block in reference to a different node. This can be illustrated in a scenario where we have a static node that is a flex container which has 1 absolute child and 1 relative child. This static node will form a containing block for the relative child but not the absolute one. We could just pass the information on rather something has a transform or not but Yoga is not supposed to know about transforms in general. As a result we have a notion of "always" forming a containing block. Since Yoga is a flexbox spec, non-absolute nodes' containing blocks will ways be their parent. If we add something like a transform to a node then that will also apply to absolute nodes - hence we can say the node will **always** form a CB, no matter who is the descendant.

Summary:
React native supports transforms and if a node has a transform it will form a containing block for absolute descendants regardless of position type. So we need to pass that information into Yoga to ensure this happens.
The verbiage for the field "alwaysFormsContainingBlock" is very specific. In a vacuum a node cannot simply "form a containing block". It only forms a containing block in reference to a different node. This can be illustrated in a scenario where we have a static node that is a flex container which has 1 absolute child and 1 relative child. This static node will form a containing block for the relative child but not the absolute one. We could just pass the information on rather something has a transform or not but Yoga is not supposed to know about transforms in general. As a result we have a notion of "always" forming a containing block. Since Yoga is a flexbox spec, non-absolute nodes' containing blocks will ways be their parent. If we add something like a transform to a node then that will also apply to absolute nodes - hence we can say the node will always form a CB, no matter who is the descendant.
