0.62 - Missing images required from outside folder

See original GitHub issue

Upgrading version

0.61.5 -> 0.62 upgraded manually according to this https://github.com/react-native-community/upgrade-support/issues/13 - everything is done except localization migration and recommended settings update - there are no issues in issues navigator. Project runs fine without it

Description

The problem: In release builds on iOS, images that are imported from outside of project root are not shown Description: We are using yarn workspaces, and images for the project are stored outside of the project root, few levels higher. metro.config.js is configured to properly resolve paths to these assets (through resolvers.extraNodeModules). Problem occurs when running application in “Release” build configuration on iOS - images that are required from outside of project root are blank. “Debug” configuration and also Android builds (debug and release) don’t have this problem. Build doesn’t crash, there are no warnings. console.log(require('@resources/image.png')) properly logs a number. Requiring the same image through aliases ('../../resources/image.png' and '@resources/image.png') logs the same number as expected Sometimes after running in “Debug” configuration it is also possible to get your images in “Release”, given I don’t clean build folder in xcode. If I do clean build folder though, no images appear

Reproducible demo

I tried to reproduce the problem by creating 2 new projects with react-native init (0.61.5 and 0.62) and none of these projects have this issue, which leads me to believe something went wrong during upgrade

Looking forward to any possible suggestions
