📜 Description

Use LogBox in backend.ts if it exists, otherwise fallback to older YellowBox. Also updates the sample app to 0.63.

💡 Motivation and Context

In React Native 0.63 YellowBox is deprecated and replaced with LogBox. Using the SDK in 0.63 shows annoying warnings: #977

💚 How did you test it?

Tested on Sample App running on both 0.62.2 and 0.63.1
