Add edge-to-edge opt-in support

[zoontek]

Summary:

This follows #47554

Compared to the initial proposal, I had to remove the edgeToEdgeEnabled property from the root gradle.properties and put it in the app gradle.properties instead (explaining the AgpConfiguratorUtils.kt / GenerateEntryPointTask.kt / ProjectUtils.kt / PropertyUtils.kt changes)

This PR:

• Enable edge-to-edge for MainActivity (when edgeToEdgeEnabled is set to true)
• Disable StatusBar backgroundColor and translucent (when edgeToEdgeEnabled is set to true)
• Enforce statusBarTranslucent and navigationBarTranslucent on Modal when edge-to-edge is enabled
• Add an isEdgeToEdge constant to DeviceInfoModule for react-native-is-edge-to-edge detection

Changelog:

• [Android] [Added] - Add edge-to-edge opt-in support

Test Plan:

• Update enableEdgeToEdge value in packages/rn-tester/android/app/gradle.properties
• Recompile
