fix(messaging, ios): avoid hang on notification registration

[mikehardy]

Description

There has been a very troublesome issue with requests to register for notifications hanging infinitely in recent iOS versions

it was narrowed down by users (thank you!) to missing permissions, and even more specifically to a difference in behavior between requesting the permissions via react-native-permissions or the requestPermission method in this library

Two related fixes are present here to avoid the infinite hang in all cases, and to correctly function in the normal case:

• the hang avoidance is a new delayed async task that checks for registration completion after 10 seconds, and rejects with a hopefully-useful message for developers about likely missing permissions if the registration was going to hang
• the fix for the likely case is that a successful grant via the requestPermissions call will now immediately register for notifications, as that was the only difference between react-native-permissions and this library

The infinite hang is definitely fixed, and I am able to successfully run tests locally on simulators with apple silicon (with correct remote notification registration...) but I do want to note that I still was not seeing successful registration on apple silicon in github's action runners.

Why? I really don't know - I tried very hard to determine why but couldn't get a root cause. I'm going to disable these tests in CI unfortunately, but they'll run locally

Some further notes are that when running locally during development of these fixes, the permissions grants of an app are stateful, and apparently a bit racy. So testing is somewhat difficult, but I almost always had good results if I installed an app and requested permission, then restarted it and registered for remote notifications.
