Subject: [PATCH] Remove animatedShouldUseSingleOp feature flag (#57364)

Summary:

The single-op batching guard now lives entirely in `NativeAnimatedHelper`, where `isSingleOpBatching` is gated on `Platform.OS === 'android'`, `queueAndExecuteBatchedOperations` being available, and `!cxxNativeAnimatedEnabled()`. The `animatedShouldUseSingleOp` flag defaulted to `true` and no longer carries any of that logic, so it is fully redundant. Remove the flag from the config, drop its now-vestigial term from `isSingleOpBatching` in both `NativeAnimatedHelper.js` and the macOS variant, and regenerate `ReactNativeFeatureFlags.js`.

This is behavior-preserving: with the flag at its default `true`, `isSingleOpBatching` evaluates identically to before on every platform.

Changelog:
[Internal]
