+1 This issue has to be resolved, since it is one of the main accessibility needs
Links should now be working in the new Fabric renderer.

<Image>
's in the same way we look for links and buttons here:https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/7b05b091fd97f95b778369277ac2147730abc7b8/React/Fabric/Mounting/ComponentViews/Text/RCTParagraphComponentAccessibilityProvider.mm#L79
And add them as additional elements to the accessibilityElements array.
