Bundles a v2.14 batch of community-requested features ported from the upstream PR backlog and a few additions that have no upstream PR but came up repeatedly in issues. All additive — the public API stays drop-in compatible. Search input - searchKeyboardType: KeyboardTypeOptions on the search field (closes upstream hoaphantn7604#320, supersedes hoaphantn7604#230, hoaphantn7604#231). - searchInputProps: TextInputProps passthrough for selectionColor, returnKeyType, autoCapitalize, autoFocus, secureTextEntry, etc. (covers issue hoaphantn7604#312). - searchField now accepts keyof T or (keyof T)[] — match across several fields without writing a custom matcher (reframes upstream hoaphantn7604#308). - persistSearch: keep the search text across opens / selections instead of clearing it (issue hoaphantn7604#283). List behaviour - onEndReached + onEndReachedThreshold first-class on both components, hooked into the underlying FlatList (closes upstream hoaphantn7604#226 / issue hoaphantn7604#329). - activeItemTextStyle: extra text style applied only to the selected row (closes upstream hoaphantn7604#269). - hideSelectedFromList: drops the currently-selected items from the rendered list (issue hoaphantn7604#321). MultiSelect-only - closeModalWhenSelectedItem: opt-in close-on-toggle, matching Dropdown's existing prop (closes upstream hoaphantn7604#310). Defaults to false to preserve current keep-selecting behaviour. - selectedToTop: pushes selected items to the top of the list (closes upstream hoaphantn7604#241). - eventClose stabilised in useCallback so the new memoised callbacks don't invalidate every render. Custom presentation - renderSelectedItem on Dropdown: replace the entire trigger body with custom JSX, receives \`visible\` (closes upstream hoaphantn7604#318 slice; supersedes hoaphantn7604#347, hoaphantn7604#273, hoaphantn7604#323). - renderModalHeader on both: render a sticky header above the list inside the modal, receives close() (covers issue hoaphantn7604#218). Fixes bundled with the feature work - Auto position now flips upward when the trigger sits in the bottom half of the screen, replacing the fixed < 150 pixel threshold with max(minSlack, H/2) (closes upstream hoaphantn7604#264). - The modal-level TouchableWithoutFeedback is now accessible={ false}, and the redundant inner wrap was removed, so iOS Accessibility Inspector and screen readers can drill into individual list rows (covers issues hoaphantn7604#297, hoaphantn7604#303).
