Expo Haptics Patch
Whenever we migrated to Expo Haptics, there was a difference between how the previous and new libraries handled the
Android implementation of an iOS "light" haptic. The previous library used the Vibration API solely, which does not
have any configuration for intensity of vibration. The Vibration API has also been deprecated since SDK 26. See:
https://github.com/mkuczera/react-native-haptic-feedback/blob/master/android/src/main/java/com/mkuczera/vibrateFactory/VibrateWithDuration.java
Expo Haptics is using VibrationManager API on SDK >= 31. See: https://github.com/expo/expo/blob/main/packages/expo-haptics/android/src/main/java/expo/modules/haptics/HapticsModule.kt#L19
The timing and intensity of their haptic configurations though differs greatly from the original implementation. This
patch uses the new VibrationManager API to create the same vibration that would have been seen in the deprecated
Vibration API.
