Allow Bypass of Update Alert on IOS

Hi! 👋

Firstly, thanks for your work on this project! 🙂

Today I used patch-package to patch sp-react-native-in-app-updates@1.4.0 for the project I'm working on.

I am trying to use the package with my custom screen, but the custom Alert screen was the default

Here is the diff that solved my problem:

Hey there, thanks for addressing that. Would you mind creating a PR for it? We should support this use-case. Also can you name the variable something like skipUserPrompt and add it on ReadMe too? (Also I wonder if we need to support that on android)
