Fixed, and only if onEndReached is not being executed that part was also out of date from a previous change.

Summary:
onStartReachedis called more than it should be since our heuristic to not re-trigger it is based on the list content size. This has worked fine foronEndReached, but foronStartReachedit causes some issues.On initial mount we receive different content size updates. I assume this is normal because of virtualization and the need to measure content. However for
onStartReachedsince we usually start at scroll position 0 we are already in the threshold so any change to content size causes us to trigger aonStartReachedevent.For example using this code we get 2
onStartReachedcalls on mount. On top of this every time we add items at the end of the listonStartReachedis called another time.To improve this I suggest using
firstVisibleItemKeythat we use formaintainVisibleContentPositionto track if we should re-triggeronStartReached. This means that it will be only re-triggered if new items are added at the start of the list or if we leave the threshold.Changelog:
[GENERAL] [FIXED] - Improve heuristic that triggers onStartReached
Test Plan:
Tested using this code. See that
onStartReachedis only called once on mount and then again only if leaving the threshold or adding new items at the start of the list. Adding items at the end of the list should also not triggeronStartReached.
