[Android][StyleSheet] Unitless string used as value causes app crash

See original GitHub issue

Description

Refs facebook/react-native-website#1834.

Currently when unitless string is used as property value (where number or string with unit can be used) Android application crashes, while on iOS value is converted to the number and on the web invalid property is omitted app works correctly.

React Native version:

Expo 37.0.0
React Native 0.62.2

Steps To Reproduce

Provide a detailed list of steps that reproduce the issue.

Use unitless string as property value (where number or string with unit can be used).

Expected Results

Property with invalid value should be converted like on iOS or omitted like on the web. Also Android app should not crash.

~~As a feature request, it could be nice to convert that value to number and print console warning in DEV mode.~~

I’m just a “re-reporter”, I can only confirm that expo example crashes on Android (in web player and on the device), when on iOS in both cases app is running. I don’t have physical Android device right now to test this out more, but before I reported that issue I got a confirmation that it also crashes Android without expo. I have updated the issue to make it more clear.
