    Summary:
Paper was rendering text as AXStaticText. This diff updates the `RCTParagraphComponentView` to propagate the same role in Fabric for text.
This change will allow to select UI elements based on the text contents.
Test Plan:
Use the Accessibility Inspector in Zeratul with Fabric enabled. With the changes the text elements are presented in the a11y hierarchy with AXStaticText:
