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

Description

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

https://github.com/react/react-native/blob/eda6f4f8ecd78408fd7b535662e3c0bdeed740df/packages/react-native/Libraries/Core/polyfillPromise.js#L23-L38

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

Screenshots and Videos

Commencez dans packages/react-native/Libraries/Core/polyfillPromise.js, en particulier aux lignes 23-38, et suivez comment hasPromise() contrôle l’importation du package promise. Vérifiez comment cette importation affecte le bundle JavaScript final. Le travail est terminé lorsque le code promise inutilisé n’est plus inclus dans le bundle, tandis que le comportement de Promise reste intact.
