polyfillPromise.js imports a `promise` package that never used as `hasPromise()` is always true

Inizia in packages/react-native/Libraries/Core/polyfillPromise.js, soprattutto alle righe 23-38, e segui come hasPromise() controlla l’importazione del pacchetto promise. Verifica in che modo tale importazione influisce sul bundle JavaScript finale. Il lavoro è completato quando il codice promise inutilizzato non viene più incluso nel bundle, mentre il comportamento di Promise rimane intatto.

Description

Currently we have a runtime check for hasPromise() that leads to bundling a dead code (promise package) in the final JS bundle

hasPromise () is true by default so promise package code is never used by thousands apps in productions
