Update react-native to 0.68.1
Goal
Update react-native to 0.68 to take advantage of the improvements and fixes it provides.
This version includes an opt-in for the new architecture (Turbo modules and Fabric renderer) that improves the performance and init speed. But because our app has many dependencies and all of them should implement the new architecture we are not going to be able to use it yet.
What needs to be done
- Update react-native
- Check if some packages need updating
- Test build/runtime on both platforms
QA
General smoke testing
UX/Design
