Regression from PR #47458: Cannot install React Native from Git anymore

[MicroDroid]

Description

This PR updates shouldSkipGenerationForRncore as such it checks if .../ReactCommon exists before deciding to skip rncore generation, whereas previously it would check .../ReactCommon/react/renderer/components/rncore specifically.

This change breaks installations from Git.

I noticed this while upgrading from 0.76.2 to 0.78.1.

Per my debugging:

• Previous behavior:
  • When installing from NPM: rncore is pre-generated using the prepack script
  • When installing from Git: rncore gets generated when running pod install
• Current behavior:
  • When installing from NPM: rncore is pre-generated using the prepack script
  • When installing from Git: rncore will NOT get generated when running pod install because .../ReactCommon is detected as exists even though .../ReactCommon/react/renderer/components/rncore does not

Steps to reproduce

npx @react-native-community/cli@latest init BuggyReactNative
cd ./BuggyReactNative/
npm install 'https://gitpkg.vercel.app/facebook/react-native/packages/react-native?0.78-stable'
cd ./ios/
bundle exec pod install
cd ..
ls ./node_modules/react-native/ReactCommon/react/renderer/components/rncore
