Patches incompatible versions @react-native-community/cli@17.0.1 was added alongside the RN 0.76.9 upgrade, but versions are incompatible. This causes a crash when starting up metro dev server.

From earlier in the session:
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'handle')
    at Function.use (/Users/thomas.pearson/code/mattr/pairing_crypto/wrappers/react-native/example/node_modules/connect/index.js:87:21)
    at exports.runServer (/Users/thomas.pearson/code/mattr/pairing_crypto/wrappers/react-native/example/node_modules/metro/src/index.flow.js:146:15)

Fix
Downgrade to cli@15.1.3 the correct version for RN 0.74 - 0.78 per the official RN templates. cli@16 and 17 were never paired with any stable RN release.

This follows the recommended versions and major version is used in the react-native upgrade helper template.
