fix(expo): make native client sync client-driven

[mikepitre]

Summary

• rework Expo JS/native client sync so client and device-token changes are signaled explicitly in both directions
• refresh JS from native client changes without suppressing the JS client update emit
• update iOS/Android native module sync APIs and tests around the new client-driven contract

Stacked on #8927 (mike/fix-expo-ios-spm-podspec-linking). Do not merge until that PR lands.
