Babel transformer: Use envName to hint default value of dev, don't mutate process.env.BABEL_ENV

Summary:
After #55805, the RN Babel preset no longer reads `process.env.BABEL_ENV` directly, instead using Babel's `env()` API, which is both cache-aware and properly respects explicit `envName` config.

See:
 - https://babeljs.io/docs/config-files#apienv
 - https://babeljs.io/docs/options#envname

Now, instead of mutating `process.env.BABEL_ENV` to force the environment for a transform, we can specify `envName` instead.
