Add versionExportedApis transform to JS API snapshot (#52292)

Summary:
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/52292

Adds a new transform that annotates all exported symbols in our V2 JS API snapshot with a version hash based on the shape of all input types.

This intends to be a reliable mechanism to indicate how changes to local types will ultimately affect exported types.

**Advantages** (over our alternative type inlining prototype)

- More intuitive to developers — in that source type changes are preserved closer to their original source code shapes.
- Enables useful Git blaming of individual exported APIs — hash for each export line will change every time a type is affected, and relevant commits can be looked up based on this.
- Handles recursive types.
- Can be **best-effort** with minimal structural effect over time. We are okay with false positives that over-match input type changes (these are refined later in the stack).
- Similar to this, is **lower risk** in terms of requiring future updates that may pollute the diff of the body of the API snapshot structurally.

**Example change**

✅ 8 char hash based on input type shapes printed next to each root-exported identifier
✅ For a source change to the `AccessibilityProps` type, 33 dependent exported types are updated with a new hash
