Migrate to ML Kit about react-native-camera-v4

[MarcoScabbiolo]

No worries! We still have some ground to cover on our side. I'll ping you when we start working on the ML features and maybe even give you a hand with migrating the code to the new react-native-firebase monorepo. Thanks!

Unfortunately I've been giving "soon now" as an ETA for a while, but as it's open source work it has to slice in between paying stuff. It's worth doing, but priorities, right? To be clear though: the code removed from react-native-firebase worked and it still exists, the job is not to code new stuff, it's just to mostly clone the react-native-firebase monorepo / packages / maintenance+testing infrastructure and drop the code-that-actually-worked in there. So it's not a bunch of unknown programming things to figure out, which means as a thing to estimate it's not too hard. I was thinking maybe a week to stand it up and make it public.

We actually have a repo and npmjs space already they're just not public yet since there's nothing to show. I'm hoping for it to exist and be public sometime February / March, it's close to the top of my list at the moment.

Sorry I can't be more concrete but guarantees only come with funding, which this doesn't have much of really
