feat(messaging, android): Add check for expo-notifications notification icon configurations

[lewiscasewell]

Description

When using expo-notifications in combination with @react-native-firebase/messaging for things like scheduling notifications now and other expo-notifications features we ran into an issue where the config wasn't being set in the recommended plugins approach in their docs. This meant some android devices didn't have a notification icon - e.g. like this issue here expo/expo#24844

The goal of this is to add a check for expo-notifications plugin and uses the configuration for notification icon and color. If there is also a notification.icon and notification.color set then we will override with these values from the plugin.

Related issues

As mentioned above we saw similar behaviour to this expo/expo#24844 with mentions of this library. But we still had the problem.

Release Summary

Adds a check for expo-notifications plugin and uses the configuration for notification icon and color if notification.icon and noticiation.color doesn't already exist respectively
