fix: cliPath should handle absolute paths (#32983)

Summary:
Avoid breaking tools relying on absolute path for `cliPath`

## Changelog

[Android] [Fixed] - Enable cliPath to have an absolute path value

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/32983

Test Plan:
declare `cliPath` from `expo`:
```groovy
cliPath: new File(["node", "--print", "require.resolve('react-native/package.json')"].execute(null, rootDir).text.trim()).getParentFile().getAbsolutePath() + "/cli.js",
```
and run an android build
