[iOS] RCTAssert RCTFormatError 165 ReferenceError: Can't find variable: typeAnnotation

See original GitHub issue

Description

[iOS] app is working fine on simulator or device when I run it directly, But when I generate an archive it’s crashing. With the help of Crashlytics, I found the issue here

@mustymustafa check the auto imported thing

It is fixed by adding import 'react-native-gesture-handler'; to the index.js

Secondly, I removed an auto imported thing from babel which is causing the crash.

removed this import { cloneDeep } from '@babel/types';

Auto import from babel is the main crash.
