Adds the draft release blog post for React Native 0.87, covering the Strict TypeScript API default, Metro 0.87, Swift Package Manager preview, and AGP 9 support. The Strict TypeScript API section and its before/after screenshots are from Alex Hunt's draft fragment (huntie/react-native-website@0.87-draft-blogpost-fragment). Co-authored-by: Alex Hunt <alexeh@meta.com>
Wrap code symbols in backticks and fence the Obj-C import example as a diff block. Unfenced, <React/RCTAppDelegate.h> is parsed as JSX by MDX and fails the build. Also converts the XCFramework and SwiftPM limitation run-on lines into lists, and tags the SwiftPM snippet as sh.
Two entries pointed at slugs that no heading generates, so they were no-ops. Also adds the missing Prebuilt iOS Core entry.
Normalizes the Metro section indentation into a proper paragraph plus list, and drops stray blank lines and double spaces. yarn ci:lint now passes clean.
authors was a plain scalar, so Docusaurus read the whole comma-separated line as a single author key and failed the build. Make it a YAML list.
