I assume eventually, folks won't need to do this – we'll lift it a layer up?

This is a complete implementation of Workflow-powered SwiftUI views using fine-grained observability to minimize render impact. It's based on the prototype in #276, and @square-tomb's previous prototype #260. Squares can learn more at go/workflow-swiftui. # Observation We're depending on Perception, Point-Free's backport of Observation. The approach to observable state is adapted from TCA's approach, with a custom `@ObservableState` macro that endows struct types with a concept of identity. In workflows, you must annotate your state with `@ObservableState`, and render a type conforming to `ObservableModel`, which wraps your state and sends mutations into the unidirectional flow. There are several built-in conveniences for rendering common cases, or you can create a custom type. On the view side, your `View` will consume a `Store<Model>` wrapper, which provides access to state, sinks, and any child stores from nested workflows. To wire things up, you can implement a trivial type conforming to `ObservableScreen` and map your rendering. It's *strongly* recommended to keep these layers separate: render a model, implement a view, and create a screen only where needed. This allows for compositions of workflows and views, which is difficult or impossible if rendering a screen directly. Check out the new ObservableScreen sample app for complete examples of most concepts being introduced here. I'll also write up an adoption guide that expands on each requirement. # SwiftPM The `@ObservableState` macro means we cannot ship `WorkflowSwiftUI` with CocoaPods. For now, this PR only removes WorkflowSwiftUI podspec, but it may be preferable to remove all podpsecs and migrate everything to SwiftPM to reduce the maintenance burden. To work on WorkflowSwiftUI locally, you can use [xcodegen](https://github.com/yonaskolb/XcodeGen) to create a project, similarly to how `pod gen` works.

Building on @square-tomb's work in #260, this PR prototypes the Perception approach more fully.
