Incompatible with react-native-safe-area-context version < 4

[julian-hecker]

Issue Description

Crashes on web when react-native-safe-area-context version < 4.

Throws error Uncaught Error: No safe area value available. Make sure you are rendering at the top of your app.

Works fine when react-native-safe-area-context version is >= 4.

Steps to Reproduce / Code Snippets

1. Initialize a new Expo app with the CLI
2. Install react-native-safe-area-context@3
3. Copy the demo into the app
4. Run on web and see the error

Expected Results

I would expect the app not to crash, or at least a message saying to update react-native-safe-area-context.

installed react-native-safe-area-context@4.3.1

as we are using yarn there is no dedupe, it is being done automatically, for us the issue was pinning a specific version of react-native-safe-area-context@4.3.4, after changing to ^4.3.4 it worked
