Summary:
Right now, the ScrollView's keyboard hiding behavior is either all or nothing: Hide the keyboard on any tap, or do nothing ever. This PR introduces a third mode to keyboardShouldPersistTaps which is much closer to what I consider should be the default.
In the new behavior, the tap responding is done in the bubbling phase (instead of the capture phase like =true). As a result, a child can handle the tap. If no child does, then the ScrollView will receive the tap and will hide the keyboard. As a result, changing TextInput focus works as a user expects, with a single tap and without keyboard hiding. But taping on Text or on the empty part of the ScrollView hides the keyboard and removes the focus.
You can view the behavior in a monkey patched ScrollView demo on rnplay:

In order to have a uniform props set, i added 3 values to the keyboardShouldPersistTaps:
'never' and 'always' are the same as false and true.
'handled' is the new behavior.
