FIXED: Android build fails: 'val' cannot be reassigned errors in MenuView.kt and MenuViewManagerBase.kt when using Kotlin 2.x

[Bifiku]

After updating to Kotlin 2.x and AGP 8.8, Android build fails for @react-native-menu/menu with:
error: MenuView.kt: ‘val’ cannot be reassigned
error: MenuViewManagerBase.kt: ‘val’ cannot be reassigned

This happens because hitSlopRect and overflow are val properties and can’t be reassigned directly anymore.

Quick fix

Replaced property assignments with setter calls:

// Before 
// node_modules/@react-native-menu/menu/android/src/main/java/com/reactnativemenu/MenuView.kt
super.hitSlopRect = value

// node_modules/@react-native-menu/menu/android/src/main/java/com/reactnativemenu/MenuViewManagerBase.kt
view.hitSlopRect = rect
view.overflow = overflow

// After 
// node_modules/@react-native-menu/menu/android/src/main/java/com/reactnativemenu/MenuView.kt
super.setHitSlopRect(value)

//node_modules/@react-native-menu/menu/android/src/main/java/com/reactnativemenu/MenuViewManagerBase.kt
view.setHitSlopRect(rect)
view.setOverflow(overflow)

I’ve attached a small patch that fixes the build on Kotlin 2.x.
It replaces invalid val reassignments with setter calls.
Just apply it with patch-package until it’s merged upstream.
