`requestIdleCallback` is not defined in TS types

Description

The v0.87 announcement says that InteractionManager has been removed (https://github.com/react/react-native/pull/57394) and we should use requestIdleCallback instead. The only issue with that is that when I put a call to requestIdleCallback in the code TypeScript spits out the error Cannot find name 'requestIdleCallback'., which means we can't actually use requestIdleCallback without breaking the TypeScript build.

Steps to reproduce

1. Update to React Native 0.87
2. Try to call requestIdleCallback

React Native Version

0.87.1
