Subject: [PATCH] Fix feature flag categorization metadata

Summary:
Corrects categorization metadata in the feature flags config. These are metadata-only changes: flag default values and runtime behavior are unchanged, and no generated files are affected (the codegen does not consume the `purpose` or `dateAdded` fields).

- Zero-pad three malformed `dateAdded` values to the `YYYY-MM-DD` convention (`enableAccessibilityOrder`, `useSharedAnimatedBackend`, `useTraitHiddenOnAndroid`).
- Recategorize `enableDoubleMeasurementFixAndroid` as an experimentation flag (adding its `dateAdded`), since it gates a one-off fix that is still ramping rather than a long-lived operational toggle.
- Recategorize `useFabricInterop` as operational, since it is a long-lived compatibility toggle rather than a rollout toward becoming the default.
- Recategorize `preparedTextCacheSize` and `viewCullingOutsetRatio` as operational tuning values (dropping their now-unused `dateAdded`), matching `virtualViewPrerenderRatio`.
