feat(ios)!: Google Mobile Ads SDK 8 w/new testDeviceIdentifiers vs testDevices

[dylancom]

Changes

• testDevices became testDeviceIdentifiers and have to be set in the Admob request configuration instead of per ad.
• Smart banner deprecation in favor of adaptive banner.
• Leave application callback removal
  The willLeaveApplication callback for all ad formats has been removed in favor of the applicationDidEnterBackground: and sceneDidEnterBackground: methods. Using OS-level APIs notify you whenever users leave your app, regardless of whether or not it is due to an ad interaction.
  Note that the willLeaveApplication callback was never intended to be an ad click handler, and relying on this callback to report clicks did not produce an accurate metric. For example, a click on the AdChoices icon that launched an external browser invoked the callback but did not count a click.

@dylancom ⚠️ ⚠️ I rebased you from main and then pushed, I think I fixed the patch-package script, and I ran yarn lint:ios:fix - with those I think this will actually be good to merge and CI will be all green + patches 🤞
I know it's Friday night late there, I hope this wasn't too bold, I couldn't imagine you were still hacking on it? I'm about to be off for the night myself. Cheers

Patches work!!! https://github.com/invertase/react-native-google-ads/actions/runs/1565648878

I hopefully fixed release automation's final step with a new token. PR title changed to signify breaking status (! w/brief explanation). All queued up on the runway ready to lift off

Yep, new github PAT did the trick. We are 100% automated now. Just missing on-device tests and the slow battle to get coverage back up. It'll get there. Thanks so much for getting this package going, it means a lot - it was really weighing on me as RNFB maintainer, having made some promises to get it going and then not having the time. Big weight off my shoulders. Cheers
