Fix CMake 3.31+ compatibility by removing CONFIGURE_DEPENDS from all CMakeLists.txt

[Copilot]

CMake 3.31 introduced breaking changes with CONFIGURE_DEPENDS in file(GLOB) commands, causing build failures across CI.

Changes

Removed CONFIGURE_DEPENDS from all 72 CMakeLists.txt files in the React Native codebase:

Hermes-related files (6):

• ReactCommon/react/runtime/hermes/CMakeLists.txt
• ReactCommon/hermes/executor/CMakeLists.txt
• ReactCommon/hermes/inspector-modern/CMakeLists.txt
• ReactAndroid/src/main/jni/react/runtime/hermes/jni/CMakeLists.txt
• ReactAndroid/src/main/jni/react/hermes/reactexecutor/CMakeLists.txt
• ReactAndroid/src/main/jni/react/hermes/instrumentation/CMakeLists.txt

Additional files (66):

• All ReactCommon components (renderer, nativemodule, utils, jsi, yoga, etc.)
• All ReactAndroid JNI components (fabric, runtime, devsupport, featureflags, etc.)
• Third-party libraries (yoga, boost)

Example change:

# Before
file(GLOB_RECURSE hermes_executor_SRC CONFIGURE_DEPENDS *.cpp)

# After
file(GLOB_RECURSE hermes_executor_SRC *.cpp)

Impact

CMake will no longer auto-detect added/removed source files. Manual reconfiguration required when modifying file lists. This is the recommended approach for CMake 3.31+ compatibility.

Fixed in d414b52. The initial commit only removed CONFIGURE_DEPENDS from 6 Hermes-related files. I've now removed it from all 72 CMakeLists.txt files across the entire React Native codebase to fix all remaining CMake 3.31+ build failures.
