Hermes transforms (unstable_transformProfile: 'hermes-stable') prevents from archiving the project in Xcode

[jcoulaud]

Description

Since August, Hermes JavaScript engine is enabled by default on brand new projects but not the Hermes code transforms. So, to work with BigInt and not have the following error

bash ERROR  TypeError: Cannot convert BigInt to number

, I need to enable them in my babel.config.js as stated in the Solana guide:

  module.exports = {
-   presets: ['module:metro-react-native-babel-preset'],
+   presets: [
+     [
+       'module:metro-react-native-babel-preset',
+       {unstable_transformProfile: 'hermes-stable'},
+     ],
+   ],
};

But, doing that, I can't archive my project on Xcode anymore. I get this error while trying:

error: File /Users/julien/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/test-bwyhfbhfgywuwjdqadmluvempaqw/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/test/BuildProductsPath/Release-iphoneos/test.app/main.jsbundle does not exist. This must be a bug with React Native, please report it here: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues'

PS: There is also this other issue related to the same problem
