feat(android, emulator): add firebase.json config element to bypass localhost remap

[stchristian]

Description

I came accross a problem with emulators and the way they are handling localhost addresses, described here.

I would love to see this work with firebase emulators, when running and testing apps on real devices.

I started a discussion here

LGTM - thank you! The CI runs will produce a patch-package set that you may use immediately if you like, until this is released

We'll need the CLA signed though for sure - follow the details link there for more information if you haven't already signed it

Thanks again - I do like the toggle, I think the dev experience is better with the remapping but it's nice to not have it be mandatory

Hey @stchristian - a gentle nudge to sign the CLA, if you follow the details link from the related comment it should walk you through it. Thanks!

[stchristian]

Something went wrong with the tests:ios:test-cover. Should I care about that? @mikehardy

[mikehardy]

No, we're currently battling a nasty bit of flakiness from wix/Detox#3000 upstream, I've been re-starting it periodically, it will pass eventually. I have no doubt it's unrelated to this and will go green

[stchristian]

Also, where can I see the patch package that has been producer?

[mikehardy]

They're linked off the action - should be able to see them here https://github.com/invertase/react-native-firebase/actions/runs/1464262461

[mikehardy]

boom! Thanks again
