0.77: Error when updating `defaultsource` property of <Image /> component (Android)

[fbp93]

Description

Hi 👋
Moving to React 0.77 I noticed that I get a runtime error everytime I try to set the defaultSource property of an component in android. From the doc I noticed that in Android in debug mode it should be ignored and this was happening until 0.76, but with 0.77 I get the following error:

Can you have a look? It's happening with both new and old arch.
Thanks 🙏

Steps to reproduce

1. Install the application on android
2. see the error
