[HOLD for payment 2023-11-02] Implement bidirectional pagination in ReportActionsList

[roryabraham]

HOLD on:

• [HOLD for payment 2024-01-18] Fix FlatList jumping #23220
• [HOLD for payment 2023-08-17] [$1000] Create Onyx migration for previousReportActionID #23221

Part of the Comment Linking project

Main issue: #20282
Doc section: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1v-ZaIRTZL5LIsyPWB0IopBNNgCajf5WC1OA8cVKtd8I/edit#bookmark=id.tgiglcuu8pr9
Project: Comment Linking

For bidirectional scrolling, we need to enable the addition of new data to the chat from both ends. The top end utilizes built-in methods onEndReachedThreshold and onEndReached. We need to start using onStartReached for the bottom end as well.

We should call the GetOlderActions API onEndReached and GetNewerActions API onStartReached.

Also, this PR should enable the CheckForPreviousReportActionID migration being built here.
