Sam Zhou e210d08180 [flow] Upgrade Flow to 0.245.2 (#30919)
## Summary

This PR bumps Flow all the way to the latest 0.245.2. 

Most of the suppressions comes from Flow v0.239.0's change to include
undefined in the return of `Array.pop`.

I also enabled `react.custom_jsx_typing=true` and added custom jsx
typing to match the old behavior that `React.createElement` is
effectively any typed. This is necessary since various builtin
components like `React.Fragment` is actually symbol in the React repo
instead of `React.AbstractComponent<...>`. It can be made more accurate
by customizing the `React$CustomJSXFactory` type, but I will leave it to
the React team to decide.

## How did you test this change?

`yarn flow` for all the renderers

react-test-renderer (DEPRECATED)

Deprecation notice

react-test-renderer is deprecated and no longer maintained. It will be removed in a future version. As of React 19, you will see a console warning when invoking ReactTestRenderer.create().

React Testing

This library creates a contrived environment and its APIs encourage introspection on React's internals, which may change without notice causing broken tests. It is instead recommended to use browser-based environments such as jsdom and standard DOM APIs for your assertions.

The React team recommends @testing-library/react as a modern alternative that uses standard APIs, avoids internals, and promotes best practices.

React Native Testing

The React team recommends @testing-library/react-native as a replacement for react-test-renderer for native integration tests. This React Native testing-library variant follows the same API design as described above and promotes better testing patterns.

Documentation

This package provides an experimental React renderer that can be used to render React components to pure JavaScript objects, without depending on the DOM or a native mobile environment.

Essentially, this package makes it easy to grab a snapshot of the "DOM tree" rendered by a React DOM or React Native component without using a browser or jsdom.

Documentation: https://reactjs.org/docs/test-renderer.html

Usage:

const ReactTestRenderer = require('react-test-renderer');

const renderer = ReactTestRenderer.create(
  <Link page="https://www.facebook.com/">Facebook</Link>
);

console.log(renderer.toJSON());
// { type: 'a',
//   props: { href: 'https://www.facebook.com/' },
//   children: [ 'Facebook' ] }

You can also use Jest's snapshot testing feature to automatically save a copy of the JSON tree to a file and check in your tests that it hasn't changed: https://jestjs.io/blog/2016/07/27/jest-14.html.
