CameraRoll.getPhotos crashes trying to get iCloud photos

[facuescobar]

Issue Description

• This happens when users have images stored in iCloud

• This doesn't happen with images stored in the device.

• For some users, CameraRoll.getPhotos is crashing for some specific files, the crash report doesn't display any information of the image, so it's difficult to find the issue.

• This error doesn't happen to all users.

• A similar issue has been reported before: iOS: Fix Crash when CameraRoll is getting assets from iCloud and no filename is provided. #13671 #17549 but this update wasn't included in react-native: 0.53.3 => 0.53.3
  Anyway, I did this update manually, you can see it in the attached screenshot: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/17549/files#diff-8aeecd9754b31530870848234a6a6386R202
  And seems that this update fixed some cases, but not all of them, because the app is still crashing with some iCloud files.

@react-native-bot I've upgraded to latest version and this issue has not been fixed there's also different times that Camera Roll can not obtain iCloud photos (syncing issue?) and it displays an empty list.

Can anyone take a look to this issue please?
