However, explicitly adding the glob is compatible with both.

npm pack treats directory entries in "files" as recursive globs, but yarn pack does not. Use explicit glob patterns (e.g. "scripts/cocoapods/**" instead of "scripts/cocoapods") so both tools include the full directory contents. This is the same fix as facebook#56407.

Three fixes for the CI "Test react-native-macos init" job:
1. Simplify apple platform resolution in react-native.config.js to
use the same pattern as ios/android (resolve from cwd directly).
2. Use glob patterns in package.json files array ("scripts/cocoapods/**"
instead of "scripts/cocoapods") so yarn pack includes directory
contents. See facebook#56407.
3. Replace `npm install <local-path>` (creates symlinks) with
`yarn pack` + `npm install <tarball>` + `chmod +x`. The symlink
approach caused module instance duplication (setFrameworkDefaults
targeting wrong @react-native/metro-config instance) and missing
pre-generated codegen headers. The tarball approach matches what
users get from npm.

npm publish, when reading this package.json will treat dirs in the files array as a recursive glob, whileyarn npm publish(which react-native-macos uses) will not. However, explicitly adding the glob is compatible with both.Changelog:
[GENERAL] [FIXED] - Use glob pattern in package json files array
Test Plan:
Tested in React Native macOS with npm pack
