Upgrade to React Native 0.72.17

[lancesnider]

Before we start upgrading to React Native 0.73.x and 0.74.x, we want to get everything upgrades to the latest version of 0.72.x. This PR:

• Upgrade React Native from 0.72.7 to 0.72.17 based on the upgrade helper.
• Upgrade all of our dev dependencies as high as they can go while still supporting node 16.
• Add a workaround for the Flipper issue described here. This is a temporary fix that we can remove when we upgrade React Native to 0.74.x.
• Add tests so that yarn test no longer fails.

Testing

Note: This'll only work on projects using RN <= 0.72

Run yarn test

1. Remove node_modules in the parent director and inside examples/
2. Remove /examples/ios/Pods
3. Run yarn bootstrap
4. Open an Android emulator in Android Studio (any phone)
5. Run yarn example start
6. When Expo is ready, click i to start an iOS simulator and/or a to start an Android

You might have an issue where Expo tries to run on a previously used device, rather than a Simulator. If that happens, run yarn example ios --simulator="iPhone 15" (or whatever device).

To test on a real device, open example/ios/RiveReactNativeExample.xcworkspace in XCode.

This and the new .husky/pre-commit files do the same thing that this used to:

"husky": {
    "hooks": {
      "commit-msg": "commitlint -E HUSKY_GIT_PARAMS",
      "pre-commit": "yarn lint && yarn typescript"
    }
  },

The changes in this file happen automatically when running yarn bootstrap.

Deprecated in the next version of typescript.
