fix: 🐛 status bar manager issue with new rn fabric

[sivantha96]

Description

Fixed the issue where it throws a runtime error for projects which has React Native Fabric (New Architecture) enabled.

Changelog

Removed StatusBarManager and used the official React Native's StatusBar module to get the current height of the status bar when the setStatusBarHeight function is called.

Also fixed some unit test case failures and did some code improvements.

Additional info

Fixes #3320

@ethanshar is there anything we can do to help get this merged? The library is currently unusable on new builds.

I'm in the same boat, my app is crashing until this is merged @ethanshar or any other maintainers, if we can merge this it would be super appreciated.

@sivantha96 you should consider resolving the conflicts first

@ethanshar or @nitzanyiz any chance to get this merged? It's getting hard to upgrade to react native 0.76 with this issue around.

Hi team!
Seems like StatusBar doesn't give us the right height on IOS. I created a fix that will revert to the old method we had for getting the height if using StatusBar.currentHeight doesn't work. You can see #3425 . Theres also a snapshot version with the fix in the additional info, let us know if it works for.
