iOS: Add a privacy manifest?

See: itinance#1232

Looking at this: https://github.com/zoontek/react-native-permissions/pull/861/files — I've missed to reference the manifest file in Podspec.

Hi @birdofpreyru,
when generating a privacy report in XCode, following error is displayed.

However, uploading to TestFlight works without any problems :)
I think the issue is that 1e75477 does not contain key NSPrivacyCollectedDataTypes. We should add it, even if it is empty...

If you like I can also open a PR.

Hi, thank you for all your effort on maintaining this package, you're truly heroes!
Apologies for putting pressure on you all, but is this going to be released any time soon ? We're 2 days away from this becoming a blocker.

As a workaround for anyone reading this. Please add this patch to your projects. (It's the same change PR #38 included)

Ok @JOSEJ94 , I just released it as v2.24.6. I did not know it was any urgent, thus wasn't thinking to release before I find time to do the library upgrade for RN@0.74 (#39).

[JOSEJ94]

Thank you so much! I'm not used to write in any repo, but in this case It was kind of urgent! You can get more information about this here. I have installed it and tested it by submitting a build into testflight and can confirm it's no longer giving warnings

[birdofpreyru]

Great, @JOSEJ94 I take your words as it is confirmed to work alright, and thus this issue can be closed now.
