Research direction

This is a release-branch pick request, not a code task to start from scratch. Read the linked upstream PR (react/react-native#58964) and the original API PR it references (#57369) to see which TypeScript type declarations were added. Done means the 0.88 branch gets those types once the upstream PR merges, and a maintainer confirms the pick.

Description

Note, the original PR still needs to be merged before 0.88 stable.

This is a pick request to add the missing TypeScript types for the new public AssetRegistry API from react-native.

The API was introduced in https://github.com/react/react-native/pull/57369, but the TypeScript types were never exposed.
