Jinwoo Hong b76bc79d73 build(mobile): key Metro's transform cache on the shell build kind (#22244)
`babel-preset-expo` inlines `EXPO_PUBLIC_MOBILE_SHELL` into
`mobileShellBuildKind` at transform time
(babel-preset-expo/build/inline-env-vars.js:51), but nothing Metro hashes
into the transform cache key carries that value: the key is
`metro/src/DeltaBundler/getTransformCacheKey.js:21`, whose inputs are the
Metro version, `cacheVersion`, the transformer path and
`@expo/metro-config/build/transform-worker/metro-transform-worker.js:600`,
none of which reads the environment. A release assembled after an
opposite-kind build reuses the warm entries and bakes the wrong shell,
and the absence of the variable's name in the bundle cannot tell the two
apart. The newest published `@expo/metro-config` (58.0.4) keys it no
differently.

Folds the kind into `cacheVersion`, by the same `=== 'ota'` rule the app
applies, keeping Metro's own version as the prefix.

Proven with four `expo export --platform android` runs against an
isolated Metro cache. Before: `ota` then `native` produced byte-identical
bundles, both `return 'ota'`. After: the second run returns `'native'`
under a different bundle hash.
