RJS-2861: Deprecate AppConfiguration.app and add app instance to App Provider

CHANGELOG.md

@@ -2,6 +2,7 @@
 
 ### Deprecations
 * The callback for `SyncSession.addProgressNotification` taking `transferred` and `transferable` arguments is deprecated and will be removed. See **Enhancements** below for the new callback supporting both Flexible Sync and Partition-Based Sync. ([#6743](https://github.com/realm/realm-js/pull/6743))
+* `AppConfiguration.app` is no longer used by Atlas Device Sync. It will be removed in future SDK releases and should not be used. ([#6785](https://github.com/realm/realm-js/issues/6785))
 
 ### Enhancements
 * Added progress notifications support for Flexible Sync using an `estimate` as the new callback argument. The `estimate` is roughly equivalent to an estimated value of `transferred / transferable` in the deprecated Partition-Based Sync callback. ([#6743](https://github.com/realm/realm-js/pull/6743))

 ### Enhancements
-* None
+* Added the ability to pass an existing `Realm.App` instance in `AppProvider` with the `app` prop. ([#6785](https://github.com/realm/realm-js/issues/6785))
+```jsx
+import { AppProvider } from "@realm/react";
+
+const app = new Realm.App(...);
+
+function MyApp() {
+  return (
+    <AppProvider app={app}> 
+      ...
+    </AppProvider>
+  );
+}
+```
 
 ### Fixed
 * Fixed listener that was not being removed during unmounting of `useObject` and `useQuery` if the listener was added in a write transaction. ([#6552](https://github.com/realm/realm-js/pull/6552)) Thanks [@bimusiek](https://github.com/bimusiek)!
+* The `app` prop in `AppProvider` meant for `LocalAppConfiguration` was not being used by Atlas Device Sync and has been removed. `app` is now only used to pass an existing `Realm.App` to the provider. ([#6785](https://github.com/realm/realm-js/pull/6785))
 
 ### Compatibility
 * React Native >= v0.71.4
