addon-ondevice-knobs does not support React Native >= 0.56 (requires dependency upgrade)

[erikthedeveloper]

Describe the bug

@storybook/addon-ondevice-knobs does not support React Native >= 0.56 due to its dependency on react-native-modal-datetime-picker. My Storybook in React Native is working great until attempting to introduce knobs. Attempting to use knobs results in this error:

Error: We don't know what to do with this node type. We were previously a Statement but we can't fit in here?

https://github.com/storybooks/storybook/blob/d9cd83c2d5e1d160effdc6f51d1dd19a279b5028/addons/ondevice-knobs/package.json#L28

This has been fixed/release in https://github.com/mmazzarolo/react-native-modal-datetime-picker/releases/tag/v6.0.0 see merged PR mmazzarolo/react-native-modal-datetime-picker#171 and original reported issue react-native-modal/react-native-modal#178

Upgrading react-native-modal-datetime-picker to 6.0.0 should fix the problem.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Attempt using addon-knobs with React Native >= 0.56. Follow instructions at:
   1. https://github.com/storybooks/storybook/tree/master/addons/knobs
   2. https://github.com/storybooks/storybook/tree/next/addons/ondevice-knobs

Expected behavior
App should build/run. Knobs should work.

Screenshots:

System:

• Framework: React Native
• Addons: knobs, ondevice-knobs
• Version: 4.1.11 (through to 5.x)

Hey @erikthedeveloper, there is #4425 opened some time ago. Did you try out version 6 and it helped? It didn't break anything else? We could just update the dependency then.
