Panos Vekris 2a068c6559 add 'as const' annotations in preparation of natural inference rollout in xplat/js [4/n] (#51488)
Summary:
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/51488

The Flow team is improving the way Flow infers type for primitive literals.
Announcement: https://fb.workplace.com/groups/flowlang/permalink/1725180268087629/

This diff prepares the codebase for the new behavior by codemoding `as const` annotations.

## Repro steps

1/ Used steps in D73610163 to produce the code changes.

2/ Reverted files where `flow` errored:
```
flow status --show-all-errors > errors.log
node ~/fbsource/fbcode/flow/facebook/error-analyzer.js errors.log |
  awk -F':' '{ print $1 }' | sort -u | grep -v 'Total Error Count' |
  xargs hg revert --rev .
```

3/ Reverted files that did not improve error count in new Flow mode
```
# Run Flow before change
~/fbsource/fbcode/flow/facebook/flowd status --show-all-errors > errors-0.log
# Run Flow after change
~/fbsource/fbcode/flow/facebook/flowd status --show-all-errors > errors-1.log

# Compute error counts before and after
node ~/fbsource/fbcode/flow/facebook/error-analyzer.js errors-0.log | sort > errors-counts-0.log
node ~/fbsource/fbcode/flow/facebook/error-analyzer.js errors-1.log | sort > errors-counts-1.log

# Revert files with no change in error count
comm -12 errors-counts-0.log errors-counts-1.log | awk -F':' '{ print $1 }' | xargs hg revert --rev .~1
```

## Note to code owners

Due to the large number of errors involved in this rollout, adding `as const` was the most feasible large-scale automated solution. Ideally, a lot of these errors would be fixed by adding other appropriate type annotations. For example instead of annotating
```
type Shape = {type: 'circle', radius: number} | {type: 'square', side: number} | ...;
type ShapeKind = 'circle' | 'square' | 'triangle';
const circle = {
  type: "circle" as const,  // <-- annotation added here
  radius: 42,
};
shape.type as ShapeKind;
takesShape(circle);
```
a more appropriate annotation would be
```
const circle: Circle = { type: "circle"; radius: 42 };
...
```
