Updated the project generators to search the VS platform directory when HasVisualStudioSupport is called to find out whether a platform is supported. This fixes several issues where platforms were being generated like they were supported by the host machine but actually weren't.

- .ini settings for using SwiftUI main function
- this will eanble #defines, etc, to enable some embedded style functionality in UE, where SwiftUI will trigger when to create the engine/view/etc
- assume fully immersive mode, which uses CompositorServices to get drawables from SwiftUI land
- Added some code to FMetalViewport for using Composotir layer/drawable instead of CoreAnimation layer/drawable
- If the .ini setting is false, then it will use the original VIsionOS support which works generally in the simulator
- Also removed -lc++ commandline which was causing "duplicate -lc++" warning when building in recent Xcode

- Added some logging to UseModernXcode so it is clear which mode is being used, and why
- Fixed stub creation in modern to use local dummy identity (no need for keychain unlocking), and moved files into Payload directory inside the stub

- set correct SDKRoot depending on sim vs device

- Pass -legacyxcode along to the legacy PostBuildSync step to make sure it uses legacy when overriding the .ini setting

- Added an example SwiftUI view shown on VisionOS, using UIHostingViewController (must be created in Swift, not Obj-C)
- Refactored AppleToolChainSettings and children so AppleToolChain can have a single Swift compile function, and still target the proper toolchain (more cleaning up and pulling into AppleToolChain should now be possible)
