Changed proguard rule for Hermes is not specified in the upgrade helper for 0.62.
See original GitHub issueFeature Request
The new proguard rule for using Hermes:
-keep class com.facebook.jni.** { *; }
is not mentioned in the upgrade helper for 0.62.
Why it is needed
Omitting this update makes the Android release app with Hermes and Proguard crashes on startup:
FATAL EXCEPTION: create_react_context
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: couldn't find DSO to load: libhermes.so caused by: com.facebook.jni.NativeRunnable
