Firebase version 7.13.3 fails to build with Tuist projects

[shahzadmajeed]

What happened?

As mentioned in this firebase thread firebase/firebase-ios-sdk#12949, Tuist users are facing a build issue with their latest version 7.13.3 which doesn't happen in 7.13.2

I will provide a reproducible project but it might just be a matter of updating dependency version to latest in https://github.com/tuist/tuist/tree/main/fixtures/multiplatform_app_with_sdk fixture.

Slack thread is here https://tuist-community.slack.com/archives/C018QG7U7SN/p1715691408936109

How do we reproduce it?

Update firebase dependency to 7.13.3 and build project you will see firebase/firebase-ios-sdk#12949 issue

As confirmed by @ajkolean here, Tuist 4 integration works well. We no longer support Tuist 3 and don't plan to backport any fixes to it. There has been a lot of work done to improve the integration of SPM dependencies in the latest version that's hard to backport.

Most of the work was around modulemaps and header search paths, but it's hard to say what exactly is missing in this instance.

We recommend migrating to Tuist 4 or using the vanilla SPM integration instead of the XcodeProj-based one (using .package instead of .external)
