Android build fails on Expo SDK 56: HighlighterViewPackage and KeyboardInputPackage not found in PackageList.java

Description

Android build fails when using react-native-ui-lib in a fresh Expo SDK 56 project. The same setup was previously working correctly with Expo SDK 54.

During the Android build process, compilation fails in PackageList.java because the generated package list references classes that cannot be found:

PackageList.java:80: error: cannot find symbol
        new HighlighterViewPackage(),
            ^

PackageList.java:81: error: cannot find symbol
        new KeyboardInputPackage(getApplication()),
            ^

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a new Expo SDK 56 project.
2. Install react-native-ui-lib.
3. Run Android build (expo run:android or EAS Build).
4. Build fails during native Android compilation.
5. Observe the PackageList.java errors shown above.

Expected behavior

The Android application should compile and build successfully after installing and configuring react-native-ui-lib, as it did with Expo SDK 54.

Actual behavior

The Android build fails because PackageList.java references HighlighterViewPackage and KeyboardInputPackage, which cannot be resolved during compilation.

Build error:

PackageList.java:80: error: cannot find symbol
        new HighlighterViewPackage(),
            ^

PackageList.java:81: error: cannot find symbol
        new KeyboardInputPackage(getApplication()),
            ^

Environment

• React Native version: (React Native version bundled with Expo SDK 56)
• React Native UI Lib version: (please fill in your installed version)
• Expo SDK version: 56

Affected platforms

• Android
• iOS
• Web

Reproduce the Android build with a fresh Expo SDK 56 project and react-native-ui-lib, using expo run:android or the provided EAS command. Inspect the generated PackageList.java entries for HighlighterViewPackage and KeyboardInputPackage and the corresponding native package registration. Done means the Android application compiles successfully without unresolved package references.
