feat(ios): allow for custom project dir in react-native-xcode script (#35449)
Summary:
The `react-native-xcode` script assumes the that `node_modules` folder are in the same location as the react native project. This adds the ability to declare `CUSTOM_DIR` in `.xcode.env` file to let react-native-xcode know where the react native project is located - required for monorepos
## Issue
At the moment if a project is not using the default react native file structure then when trying to create a build or archive using Xcode it will fail, with the following error:
> File /Users/itxch/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/app-evgjukoxhuupzzdglopjnhcntvpw/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/jungul/BuildProductsPath/Release-iphoneos/app.app/main.jsbundle does not exist. This must be a bug with React Native, please report it here: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues
## Background
My project is a monorepo, using `npm` workspaces.
#### This is the relevant file structure

This file structure is incompatible with line 63 of `react-native-xcode.sh`
https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/c5a8425fada10b715f356731426db666975569c9/scripts/react-native-xcode.sh#L63
Note: `$REACT_NATIVE_DIR` is the `react-native` package directory inside node modules.
So by default this sets project root to be the parent folder of the `node_modules` folder. However in my case this is not correct, it should actually be:
```sh
PROJECT_ROOT=${PROJECT_ROOT:-"$REACT_NATIVE_DIR/../../app"}
```
## Solution
Seeing as hardcoding the value would not work, the simplest solution is to set the directory via a variable
```sh
PROJECT_ROOT=${PROJECT_ROOT:-"$REACT_NATIVE_DIR/../../$CUSTOM_DIR"}
```
`$CUSTOM_DIR` can easily be set via `.xcode.env` file.
## Changelog
[IOS] [Added] - allow for custom project dir in react-native-xcode script
Pull Request resolved: #35449
Test Plan:
After updating my `.xcode.env` file to include `export CUSTOM_DIR=app`, I can successfully create a build or an archive.
If the variable is not set it will be black, so it will not effect `$PROJECT_ROOT`
