Subject: [PATCH] Localize keyboard return-key labels on numeric-keypad input
 accessory view (#57168)

Summary:

The "Next", "Done", and other return-key button labels on the iOS numeric-keypad input accessory view render in English regardless of device locale.

Root cause: `returnKeyTypeToString:` in `RCTTextInputComponentView.mm` returns hardcoded English string literals. These strings are passed directly to `UIBarButtonItem` as the button title, so they never go through the localization pipeline.

Fix: Wrap each literal in the `RCTLocalizedString` macro, which registers the strings for translation. This follows the established React Native pattern used elsewhere in the codebase.

Changelog:
[iOS][Changed] - Adds localization for Text Input default return key types
