Bump underlying Sentry JS dependency?

[jackkinsella]

Summary

Long-story short, sentry-expo requires version 7.7 of Sentry JS. We want to bump to ~7.28. (see here) Because of this constraint, the @sentry/react-native library (needed for native reporting) is constrained to be at version3.2 or lower. (iOS production builds will fail due to Podfile dep issues). @sentry/react-native is currently at 4.6.1 and version 5.0.0-alpha.6 is already out.

I believe there are some issues with the version of @sentry/react-native. In Android 6, 7 and 8, for example, any app containing it will simply not open. This is due to an error in this version of Sentry. I see multiple crash reports in Android Vitals about this. Android 7 is 5% of global users.

I would assume (or blindly hope) that these issues are resolved in later versions of @sentry/react-native, therefore it might be worth bumping the version in this repo to allow for that to be installed.
