[Android] Fix basic-example hermesc path

[j-piasecki]

Description

I've noticed that release builds of basic example fail on android due to the wrong path of hermesc set.

hermesc path is resolved with the working dir set to the app directory and React Native will automatically select the right OS-specific path.

Test plan

Build the app in release mode or run ./gradlew :app:createBundleReleaseJsAndAssets before & after this change.

Pull request overview

Fixes Android release builds of the basic-example app by updating the configured Hermes compiler path to a repo-relative, OS-aware location compatible with React Native’s %OS-BIN% substitution logic.

Changes:

• Update react { hermesCommand = ... } to point at node_modules/hermes-compiler/... with %OS-BIN% placeholder for OS-specific bin selection.

I changed to OS-BIN so Linux also works (CI). I don't think we care about Windows in this case.
