[WIP] Implement iOS one-click deploy.

[bruvzg]

Implements onc-click deploy to iOS simulators (via xcode xcrun simctl) and devices (via third-party tool - ios-deploy).

ios-deploy part needs testing, I do not have any iDevices to test it on real hardware.

There's already PR for the same thing but it only supports real devices via ios-deploy: #11765

Fixes: #2703

That reminds me, do the official iOS export templates contain x86 binaries for use with the Simulator?

Yes:

3.1.1 templates have i386, armv7, x86_64, arm64 libs.
3.2 alpha 3 templates have x86_64, arm64 libs.

XS/XR+ iPhones use ARMv8.3 CPUs (arm64e), probably we should add this to officeal template as well, but AFAIK it's optional and normal arm64 libs should work on new devices too. (#26267)

Slightly related but I also found this maintained repo that does the same thing, might be helpful as a reference.

I gave this a whirl with my iphone 7, and ipod touch, it works really well so far.

This works in the simulator but not on the device for me. @Relintai can you confirm this works from a mac to a device and without using the simulator?

[Relintai]

It did work for me. As I said I tried it with my real iPhone 7, and my iPod touch (5th gen). It worked flawlessly with both of them, every single time, also with multiple projects.

Something might have changed since then though, because for example now ios-deploy says to uninstall the npm version (commit from yesterday), and I had the npm version.

I'll update everything, clean rebuild on my mac and test again in a few days.

This is too outdated and need to be redone.
