SoLoaderDSONotFoundError: couldn't find DSO to load: libreactnative.so

Description

continuation of https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/49111 which was closed without resolution, even though many others have the same issue.

it looks like it's only Play Store test emulators that are crashing (pixel 6/6pro/7/7a, nexus,...)
but perhaps it's also real users with real devices, not sure on that last one.

Steps to reproduce

1. run app

React Native Version

0.81.1

Affected Platforms

Runtime - Android

Empieza por ReactNativeFeatureFlagsCxxInterop.kt:28 y DefaultNewArchitectureEntryPoint.kt:97; después inspecciona la ruta de carga de bibliotecas nativas de Android implicada por el stack trace. Reproduce el fallo en el emulador de prueba de Play Store afectado si es posible; se considera terminado cuando la aplicación se inicia sin SoLoaderDSONotFoundError para libreactnative.so.
