Hidden ListView doesn't appear as expected

[vpshonyak]

Description

If ListView initially invisible, then attempt to make it visible fails

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create new .NET MAUI app;
2. Add XAML to your MainPage.xaml:

<StackLayout>
    <Button Text="Show/Hide ListView" Clicked="Button_Clicked" />
    <ListView x:Name="ListView1" IsVisible="False">
        <ListView.ItemsSource>
            <x:Array Type="{x:Type x:String}">
                <x:String>Item 1</x:String>
                <x:String>Item 2</x:String>
                <x:String>Item 3</x:String>
            </x:Array>
        </ListView.ItemsSource>
    </ListView>
</StackLayout>

3. Add code:

        private void Button_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            ListView1.IsVisible = !ListView1.IsVisible;
        }

4. Run your app;
5. Tap the 'Show/Hide ListView' button several times;

Expected behavior: ListView should shows up after the first tap;

Actual behavior: on Android ListView shows up only after 3rd tap; on iPhone ListView never shows up.

Is this a regression from previous behavior?

Not sure, did not test other versions

No response

iOS, Android

Affected platform versions

No response

Did you find any workaround?

On Android works if 'ListView1.IsVisible = !ListView1.IsVisible;' replaced with:

ListView1.IsVisible = !ListView1.IsVisible;
ListView1.IsVisible = !ListView1.IsVisible;
ListView1.IsVisible = !ListView1.IsVisible;

@vpshonyak can you try CollectionView? We aren't heavily prioritizing ListView issues currently but really want to make sure people are unblocked to move to CollectionView.

@PureWeen CollectionView works fine.

Another repro project for the same/similar issue: https://github.com/AceCoderLaura/MauiBugs/tree/0f3c5e19ddf0c9638326f7268fad6144798e1ecd/IsVisibleBug

CollectionView doesn't have the issue, but ListView is really broken. It displays duplicates of every item, and straight up doesn't appear unless IsVisible is turned off and on again.
