Christian Falch d8e00f0bb1 Added backwards compatible use of prebuild through cocoapods (#52252)
Summary:
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/52252

Instead of declaring two different sets of Pods for prebuilt and build from source, this commit now keeps the pod structure the same for both modes so that consuming libraries can expect to have the same pods and header files available - without this, libraries would have to be updated to take advantage of the prebuilds.

This PR does:
- Added React-Core-prebuilt as a pod in React-Core if prebuilt is enabled
- Simplified react_native_pods to keep pods structure and add React-Core-prebuilt pod if prebuilts are enabled
- Added function for selecting source sets based on prebuilt/build from source

To be able to function both in prebuilt and in regular build from source mode, all podspecs are now using the switch function podspec_sources so that they only include header files if we are in prebuild mode.

Also added React-Core-prebuilt as dependency on React-Core if we are in prebuilt mode so that we install the React.XCFramework.

## Changelog:

[IOS] [FIXED] - Added backwards compatible use of prebuild through cocoapods

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/52223

Test Plan:
Tested in RN-Tester both with and without prebuild.

React Native brings React's declarative UI framework to iOS and Android. With React Native, you use native UI controls and have full access to the native platform.

  • Declarative. React makes it painless to create interactive UIs. Declarative views make your code more predictable and easier to debug.
  • Component-Based. Build encapsulated components that manage their state, then compose them to make complex UIs.
  • Developer Velocity. See local changes in seconds. Changes to JavaScript code can be live reloaded without rebuilding the native app.
  • Portability. Reuse code across iOS, Android, and other platforms.

React Native is developed and supported by many companies and individual core contributors. Find out more in our ecosystem overview.

📋 Requirements

React Native apps may target iOS 15.1 and Android 7.0 (API 24) or newer. You may use Windows, macOS, or Linux as your development operating system, though building and running iOS apps is limited to macOS. Tools like Expo can be used to work around this.

🎉 Building your first React Native app

Follow the Getting Started guide. The recommended way to install React Native depends on your project. Here you can find short guides for the most common scenarios:

📖 Documentation

The full documentation for React Native can be found on our website.

The React Native documentation discusses components, APIs, and topics that are specific to React Native. For further documentation on the React API that is shared between React Native and React DOM, refer to the React documentation.

The source for the React Native documentation and website is hosted on a separate repository, @facebook/react-native-website.

🚀 Upgrading

Upgrading to new versions of React Native may give you access to more APIs, views, developer tools, and other goodies. See the Upgrading Guide for instructions.

React Native releases are discussed in this discussion repo.
