feat(core): support for using SPM (Swift Package Manager)

[russellwheatley]

Description

• Works with SPM and Cocoapods. To use SPM, remove Podfile as well as run pod deintegrate in the example/ios directory. You will know it worked when you don't see Running pod install... in the logs when running flutter run.
• Package.swift does not have the same attributes that a podspec has. For example, you cannot set version, summary, description, homepage, license & authors.
• Updated LIBRARY_VERSION and LIBRARY_NAME so the "@" symbol is in the code. I could not get the "@" character to escape in the Package.swift file causing build problem. I've also updated the podspec file to match.
• Finally found a way to get firebase_core version and firebase-ios-sdk version dynamically in Package.swift file. Followed example of brave here. This works when running in Xcode and via Flutter CLI.
• I've used firebase app installations as a product so we have access to firebase core, SPM doesn't ship firebase core as a standalone product.

TODO

• [x] check how the other plugins work with the updates.
• [x] update macOS podspec in firebase_core.
• [x] write integration tests building with SPM.
• [x] update macOS Package.swift to also extract versions dynamically. Test on Xcode build and via Flutter CLI
• [x] Update integration test for macOS to check it also works via SPM. Extract into a shell script as it is becoming unmanageable.

@russellwheatley Excellent work!

Did you follow Flutter's Swift Package Manager migration guide to create this pull request? If so, what problems did you run into? Do you have any feedback on the guide and how we could improve it?

[russellwheatley]

Hey @loic-sharma - thanks! Sorry for the late response. I actually used the instructions on the pull request which seems like a precursor to the documentation you linked. It was actually a pretty good guide!

The only trouble I ran into was project specific such as being able to get the firebase-ios-sdk version from within Package.swift file, and also trying to parse preprocessor definitions 😄

Looks like in order to support other packages, this one needs to get merged first. It would be also good to have one plugin migrated to show how to get flutter core package in spm
