ref(ios): Remove deprecated private SDK API usage

[philprime]

📢 Type of change

• Bugfix
• New feature
• Enhancement
• Refactoring

📜 Description

Route all remaining iOS internal SDK access through SentrySDK.internal and the React Native Swift bridge. This removes the deprecated Objective-C SPI from active production code, tests, samples, comments, and implementation guidance while preserving historical changelog entries.

The screenshot, view hierarchy, and screen bridge APIs now use the hybrid SDK surface on visionOS as well as iOS and tvOS.

💡 Motivation and Context

The deprecated Objective-C internal API is being removed from sentry-cocoa. React Native must use the replacement hybrid SDK APIs, including the newly available visionOS surface, to remain compatible.

💚 How did you test it?

• yarn lint:swift
• yarn lint:clang
• Focused RNSentryInitNativeSdkTests and RNSentryReplayOptions test run: 76 tests passed
• Verified the removed type has no remaining active code references

📝 Checklist

• I added tests to verify changes.
• No new PII added or SDK only sends newly added PII if sendDefaultPII is enabled.
• I updated the docs if needed.
• I updated the wizard if needed.
• All tests passing.
• Public API changes reviewed by another Mobile SDK team member or implemented according to the develop docs spec.
• No breaking changes.

🔮 Next steps

Land and consume the corresponding sentry-cocoa release that exposes the hybrid screenshot, view hierarchy, and screen APIs on visionOS.
