[Part 25] Remove Onyx.connect from LocalePhoneNumber

[marufsharifi]

Explanation of Change

This change removes the direct @libs/LocalePhoneNumber formatter dependency from the money-request optimistic data builder. MoneyRequestBuilder now requires formatPhoneNumber through its money-request params and uses that injected formatter when creating optimistic personal details for new money-request chats.

The formatter is threaded through the existing localized money-request flows, including request money, duplicate, per diem, split, split transaction updates, track expense conversion, add existing expense, delete transactions, and share submit details. Tests and fixtures were updated to pass the shared test formatter, and a focused regression assertion verifies that a new-chat optimistic personal detail display name is formatted through the injected function.

Fixed Issues

$ #66327
PROPOSAL:

Tests

• Verify that no errors appear in the JS console

Offline tests

QA Steps

1. Log in to New Expensify.
2. From the global create button, choose to submit/request money.
3. Choose a manual money request.
4. Enter any amount, for example $10.00.
5. Continue to the participant/recipient step.
6. Enter a phone number recipient that is not already in your contacts or existing chats.
7. Select that phone number recipient.
8. Continue to the confirmation step.
9. Submit the money request.
10. Verify a new one-on-one money request chat is created.
11. Verify the participant name shown in the new chat/report header is a formatted phone number, not a raw phone string.
12. Verify the money request preview/action appears correctly with the expected amount.
13. Refresh the app or reopen the chat.
14. Verify the chat still loads correctly, and the participant display remains formatted.
15. Repeat the same manual request flow with an existing email/contact recipient.
16. Verify the request still submits successfully and existing contact display names are unchanged.

PR Author Checklist

• I linked the correct issue in the ### Fixed Issues section above
• I wrote clear testing steps that cover the changes made in this PR
  • I added steps for local testing in the Tests section
  • I added steps for the expected offline behavior in the Offline steps section
  • I added steps for Staging and/or Production testing in the QA steps section
  • I added steps to cover failure scenarios (i.e. verify an input displays the correct error message if the entered data is not correct)
  • I turned off my network connection and tested it while offline to ensure it matches the expected behavior (i.e. verify the default avatar icon is displayed if app is offline)
  • I tested this PR with a High Traffic account against the staging or production API to ensure there are no regressions (e.g. long loading states that impact usability).
• I included screenshots or videos for tests on all platforms
• I ran the tests on all platforms & verified they passed on:
  • Android: Native
  • Android: mWeb Chrome
  • iOS: Native
  • iOS: mWeb Safari
  • MacOS: Chrome / Safari
• I verified there are no console errors (if there's a console error not related to the PR, report it or open an issue for it to be fixed)
• I followed proper code patterns (see Reviewing the code)
  • I verified that comments were added to code that is not self explanatory
  • I verified that any new or modified comments were clear, correct English, and explained "why" the code was doing something instead of only explaining "what" the code was doing.
  • I verified any copy / text that was added to the app is grammatically correct in English. It adheres to proper capitalization guidelines (note: only the first word of header/labels should be capitalized), and is either coming verbatim from figma or has been approved by marketing (in order to get marketing approval, ask the Bug Zero team member to add the Waiting for copy label to the issue)
• If a new code pattern is added I verified it was agreed to be used by multiple Expensify engineers
• I followed the guidelines as stated in the Review Guidelines
• I tested other components that can be impacted by my changes (i.e. if the PR modifies a shared library or component like Avatar, I verified the components using Avatar are working as expected)
• If a new CSS style is added I verified that:
  • A similar style doesn't already exist
  • The style can't be created with an existing StyleUtils function (i.e. StyleUtils.getBackgroundAndBorderStyle(theme.componentBG))
• If new assets were added or existing ones were modified, I verified that:
  • The assets are optimized and compressed (for SVG files, run npm run compress-svg)
  • The assets load correctly across all supported platforms.
• If the PR modifies code that runs when editing or sending messages, I tested and verified there is no unexpected behavior for all supported markdown - URLs, single line code, code blocks, quotes, headings, bold, strikethrough, and italic.
• If the PR modifies a generic component, I tested and verified that those changes do not break usages of that component in the rest of the App (i.e. if a shared library or component like Avatar is modified, I verified that Avatar is working as expected in all cases)
• If the PR modifies a component related to any of the existing Storybook stories, I tested and verified all stories for that component are still working as expected.
• If the PR modifies a component or page that can be accessed by a direct deeplink, I verified that the code functions as expected when the deeplink is used - from a logged in and logged out account.
• If the PR modifies the UI (e.g. new buttons, new UI components, changing the padding/spacing/sizing, moving components, etc) or modifies the form input styles:
  • I verified that all the inputs inside a form are aligned with each other.
  • I added Design label and/or tagged @Expensify/design so the design team can review the changes.
• I added unit tests for any new feature or bug fix in this PR to help automatically prevent regressions in this user flow.
• If the main branch was merged into this PR after a review, I tested again and verified the outcome was still expected according to the Test steps.
