Fix Connect to Metro after Reload in Bridgeless mode #43994

Summary:
We received this issue from OSS where an app can't connect to Metro on reloads in the following scenario:

  • Start the App when metro does not run.
  • Observe the error screen
  • Start Metro
  • Press Reload
  • Observe the error message again

While the desired behavior should be to connect to Metro now that this is running.

The root cause of the problem is that the RCTHost is initialized with a value of the bundleURL that is nil. Upon reload, the RCTHost is not recreated: the instance is restarted, but with the previous bundleURL, which is still nil.

The solution is to initialize the RCTHost with a closure that re-evaluate the bundleURL whenever it is invoked and to evaluate it only on start, to keep the initialization path light.
This way, when the app is started with Metro not running, the bundleURL is nil. But when it is reloaded with Metro starting, the bundleURL is properly initialized.

Note that the changes in this diff are not breaking as I reimplemented (and deprecated) the old initializer so that they should work in the same way.

Changelog:

[iOS][Fixed] - Let RCTHost be initialized with a function to provide the bundleURL so that it can connect to metro on Reload when the url changes.
