Fix applicationDidEnterBackground not being called (#48376)

Summary:
I noticed that `AppDelegate` subscribers listening for `applicationDidEnterBackground` events in Expo projects (as documented [here](https://github.com/expo/expo/blob/238b6f57e459dd2c0b13ee158f0af709fe922460/docs/pages/modules/appdelegate-subscribers.mdx?plain=1#L56) aren't working as expected anymore.
While investigating, I discovered that the events aren't reaching the `ExpoAppDelegate` implementation ([source](https://github.com/expo/expo/blob/71f2c55ff3f11e43ab43761bb5cece2e48eae0bf/packages/expo-modules-core/ios/AppDelegates/ExpoAppDelegate.swift#L61)) because the `RCTAppDelegate` implementation of `applicationDidEnterBackground` interrupts the event chain. This appears to be affecting some legitimate use cases.
I believe we could improve this by removing the current implementation, but I'd love to hear your thoughts on this approach. I might be missing some context about why this implementation was originally needed, so any insights would be greatly appreciated!
