[Skia] TextBox doesn't follow WinUI TextWrapping

I am getting different results with the same TextWrapping="Wrap" set on WinUI and Skia Gtk.

Expected behavior

The implementation should follow the WinUI counterpart

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible)

<TextBox Height="120"
      TextWrapping="Wrap"/>

Thanks. This is expected at this time and will evolve once #9417 improves.

Is this now working @ramezgerges ?

The repro is a little weird? If I'm guessing correctly, @morning4coffe-dev meant <TextBox Width="120" TextWrapping="Wrap"/> instead of <TextBox Height="120" TextWrapping="Wrap"/>. Anyway, Yeah, it's working. Not sure if we also need to fix this for the Gtk overlay version of the TextBox?

@ramezgerges if it's a small fix for gtk, let's fix it, otherwise, let's leave it.

It seems that we would need to change the Entry that we currently use to be a TextView, but that would also be somewhat buggy since it accepts multiline inputs when a TextBox shouldn't (by default), so we would also need to hack around that. The concept of a "TextBox that wraps but isn't multiline" isn't directly a thing in GTK as far as I can tell.

Let's close this issue, we will not be fixing the GTK support.
