Replace UITextInteraction API with UITextItem ones

[crazytonyli]

Note

This PR is built on top of #24871, and will be merged after that.

Description

My understanding is that the delegate function that uses UITextItemInteraction was split into two methods: the primaryActionFor one and the menuConfigurationFor one.

We need to return a UIAction in the primaryActionFor delegate method. And, where the original function returns false, we now need to return nil in the menuConfigurationFor delegate method.

Good call. I'll do that.

Were you able to get these menus to work? I'm long-pressing on the links in notifications, and func textView(_ textView: UITextView, menuConfigurationFor textItem: UITextItem, defaultMenu: UIMenu) -> UITextItem.MenuConfiguration? { doesn't seem to be called, and it shows the standard menu instead of the URL-related menu. I'm not sure if it's a regression from the PR or something else.

The trunk branch also behaves like that. The original deprecated function is also not called when long-pressing on links. I think that may have something to do with the RichTextView type.

Let's merge this targeting 26.5, reducing the affected areas for 26.4.
