Subject: [PATCH] Bump targetSdk to 37 (#58666)

Summary:
Bump `targetSdk` to 37. This follows the `compileSdk` and `buildTools` bump to 37 in https://github.com/react/react-native/issues/57284.

I checked each [Android 17 change for apps that target 37](https://developer.android.com/about/versions/17/behavior-changes-17) against React Native core.

## Changelog:
[ANDROID] [CHANGED] - Update `targetSdk` to 37

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/react/react-native/pull/58666

Test Plan: RNTester, on two Android 17 emulators. A phone and a Pixel Tablet
