Bunch patch for react-native-agora

This patch updates react-native-agora to render both local and remote previews into TextureViews instead of SurfaceViews.

Why TextureViews?

Unlike SurfaceView, TextureView does not create a separate window but behaves as a regular View. This key difference allows a TextureView to be moved, transformed, animated, etc. For instance, you can make a TextureView semi-translucent by calling myView.setAlpha(0.5f).

What does this patch do?

It updates com.syan.agora package to use classes from live.bunch.agora instead.

How to patch a new android version of react-native-agora?

1. Copy live.bunch.agora package to android/src/main/java/

2. Update AgoraPackage.java file imports

   // android/src/main/java/com/syan/agora/AgoraPackage.java
   package com.syan.agora;
   
   import live.bunch.agora.AgoraViewManager;
   
   //...
   

3. Update AgoraModule.java file imports

   // android/src/main/java/com/syan/agora/AgoraModule.java
   package com.syan.agora;
   
   import live.bunch.agora.AgoraManager;
   
   //...
   

4. Update AgoraVideoView.java file imports

   // android/src/main/java/com/syan/agora/AgoraModule.java
   package com.syan.agora;
   
   import live.bunch.agora.AgoraManager;
   
   //...
   

That's it.
