[iOS] interpolateColor - Attempt to assign to readonly property

Description

When you try to render a component with some color interpolation using interpolateColor after another component with color interpolation is already rendered you get an error - Attempt to assign to readonly property.

This only happens on iOS.

Expected behavior

You shouldn’t get this error on iOS.

Actual behavior & steps to reproduce

Render some component that uses interpolateColor and then render another component that also uses interpolateColor in a few seconds, for example. This also works for different screens in the navigation stack.

Snack or minimal code example

Here is a reproducible demo: https://github.com/yaroslavnikiforov/InterpolateColor/tree/main/android

Code example:

import React, {useState, useEffect} from 'react';
import {StyleSheet} from 'react-native';
import Animated, {
  useAnimatedStyle,
  useSharedValue,
  interpolateColor,
} from 'react-native-reanimated';

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {flex: 1},
});

export default function App() {
  const [isVisible, setIsVisible] = useState(false);

  useEffect(() => {
    setTimeout(() => setIsVisible(true), 3000);
  }, []);

  return (
    <>
      <BlockOne />

      {isVisible ? <BlockTwo /> : null}
    </>
  );
}

function BlockOne() {
  const animatedValue = useSharedValue(300);
  const animatedStyles = useAnimatedStyle(() => {
    const backgroundColor = interpolateColor(
      animatedValue.value,
      [0, 234, 468],
      ['red', 'orange', 'yellow'],
    );

    return {backgroundColor};
  }, [animatedValue]);

  return <Animated.View style={[styles.container, animatedStyles]} />;
}

function BlockTwo() {
  const animatedValue = useSharedValue(0.3);
  const animatedStyles = useAnimatedStyle(() => {
    const backgroundColor = interpolateColor(
      animatedValue.value,
      [0, 1],
      ['green', 'cyan'],
    );

    return {backgroundColor};
  }, [animatedValue]);

  return <Animated.View style={[styles.container, animatedStyles]} />;
}

Same as https://github.com/software-mansion/react-native-reanimated/issues/2329. It seems like enabling hermes fixes that (https://github.com/software-mansion/react-native-reanimated/issues/2329#issuecomment-981553091), if that’s not an option for you, you can apply a patch (orig - https://github.com/software-mansion/react-native-reanimated/issues/2329#issuecomment-907619489) until the issue is resolved, didn’t notice any issues in production.
