[🐛] react-native-quick-sqlite deprecated, won't build on Android

[robsoden]

Issue

react-native-quick-sqlite is deprecated and no longer maintained.
additionally, there is a build issue with react-native-quick-sqlite on android using gradle plugin 4.0 and greater.

according to the link in the error (https://developer.android.com/r/tools/jniLibs-vs-imported-targets) the package would need to be reconfigured and re-released with an updated jni config, but with no maintainers, this is unlikely to happen.

as such, offline mode for stream-chat-react-native is effectively unusable.

error:

We have just released v6 for our RN SDK, where we have moved from react-native-quick-sqlite to op-sqlite, so I am closing this issue in favour of it. Thanks 😄

Wow so we need to upgrade all the way to expo 52 and rn 75 to get this update?
