Unknown unicode characters in Image source broken on iOS in New Architecture

[oblador]

Description

In new architecture, both bridgeless and not, using the Fabric Image component on iOS with an image containing a strange unicode character, the image will not get rendered regardless if it's a local or remote asset.

In old arch and on android (old+new) this was not an issue.

It leads me to believe it has something to do with passing "invalid" strings between JS and Native.

Applies to current stable version and latest RC.

Steps to reproduce

1. Name an image Test__.png.
2. Render it with <Image source={require('../Test__.png')} />.
3. Observe image in all modes but new arch iOS.

React Native Version

0.74.0-rc.3
