Summary:
Add RCTGetReactNativeVersion() to expose version in native code. Right now, version is exposed internally to RN using a MACRO constant. This exposes a symbol (function) that can be called to retrieve the React Native version in iOS.
Also exposed RCTVersion.h as a public header in the React project so it is available to developers.
The motivation behind this is for https://github.com/wix/detox —we need to know what RN version the user has, if any, so we can properly handle support and abstract differences.
Ran bump-oss-version.js to ensure the template is applied properly. Also compiled the project to make sure nothing is broken.
[IOS] [ENHANCEMENT] [RCTVersion.h] - Expose version as a compile-time symbol for native queries
