[general][changed] - Update Flipper to 0.54
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/29787
Test Plan:
Updated the RN 0.63.2 based test project https://github.com/mweststrate/flipper-issue-1399-repo with `use_flipper!('Flipper' => '0.54.0')` (in `ios/Podspec`) / `FLIPPER_VERSION=0.52.1` in `gradle.properties` in the test project https://github.com/mweststrate/flipper-issue-1399-repo and verified that everything builds and connects correctly, and that the bug is no longer present.
Tried to run RN-tester project in this repo. For iOS this succeeded, on Android I got a build error:
```

No idea if it is related. I guess not since without making the change I got the same error.
