feat(expo): enhances notification config retrieval

[huextrat]

Description

Expo 54 will deprecate the use of notification in expo config in favor of expo-notifications expo plugin : https://docs.expo.dev/versions/v54.0.0/config/app/#notification

Improves notification configuration by first checking expo-notifications plugin for icon and color.

Falls back to deprecated config.notification settings. Warns about missing notification icon for Android.

apologies for the delay - been spinning through all the Invertase npmjs packages implementing their new Trusted Publish thing so we can keep releasing software at all, and it's delayed me going through PRs here. This is on the radar though
