@zoontek landing, but would be good to have some screenshot (from your RNTester test) or a jest e2e test here (cc @cortinico) |

Summary:
Adds support for
barStyle="auto"onStatusBar. When set, the bar style is resolved against the current color scheme:light-contentin dark mode,dark-contentin light mode. The resolution re-runs when the system color scheme changes, while at least oneStatusBaris mounted.The behavior mirrors what
expo-status-baralready exposes. The'auto'name is the one we use at Expo. It is not necessarily the right name for React Native core, happy to switch to something else if reviewers prefer.Changelog:
[GENERAL] [ADDED] - StatusBar: support
barStyle="auto"to follow the current color schemeTest Plan:
yarn jest packages/react-native/Libraries/Components/StatusBarpasses, including a new test that assertssetBarStyle('auto')calls the native module withdark-contentin light mode andlight-contentin dark mode.
