React 18.2.0 Support

[Robert Hufsky]

Thanks for the great effort tp create and maintain react-qr-reader. Trying to use it in a new project with NextJS / React 18.2 I stumbled across a compatibility issue.
In the compatibility section of the docs there is a statement Since this library does internal use of hooks you need React >= 16.8.0.
According to package.json react-qr-reader supports React ^16.8 and Readt ^17. Is it possible to extend that to React 18?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
