Fix iOS Bundle Identifier Install Failure

Summary

Fixed the Xcode device install failure by adding the missing app bundle metadata to Dreamio/Info.plist. The key fix is CFBundleIdentifier, which now resolves from the target's existing PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER build setting.

Changes Made

• Added CFBundleIdentifier to the explicit Info.plist so Xcode can identify the built app bundle.
• Added related standard bundle keys for executable name, display name, package type, and version fields.
• Used Xcode build setting placeholders instead of hard-coded duplicate values.

Context

The install error said Xcode could not get the identifier for Dreamio.app and suggested ensuring CFBundleIdentifier exists. The project already defined PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER = com.kell.dreamio, but GENERATE_INFOPLIST_FILE is set to NO, so Xcode uses the checked-in plist as the source of truth.

Because the plist did not include CFBundleIdentifier, the processed app bundle was invalid for device installation.

Important Implementation Details

This keeps Debug and Release behavior aligned with the target build settings. If the app identifier changes later, it only needs to change in the Xcode project build settings.

Expected Impact for End-Users

Developers should be able to install and run Dreamio from Xcode without the app bundle being rejected as invalid for a missing identifier. The app's visible behavior is unchanged.

Validation

• Ran plutil -lint Dreamio/Info.plist; the plist is valid.
• Built the app with DEVELOPER_DIR=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer xcodebuild -project Dreamio.xcodeproj -scheme Dreamio -configuration Debug -destination 'generic/platform=iOS Simulator' -derivedDataPath /tmp/dreamio-derived build; the build succeeded.
• Read the processed bundle plist at /tmp/dreamio-derived/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/Dreamio.app/Info.plist and confirmed CFBundleIdentifier = com.kell.dreamio.
• Closed Beads issue dreamio-tnv. bd dolt pull failed afterward with Error 1105: no remote, so Beads sync was blocked by local Dolt remote configuration.

Issues, Limitations, and Mitigations

• I validated a simulator build, not a physical-device install. The original failure path should be addressed because the processed bundle now has the missing identifier.
• The target still has an empty DEVELOPMENT_TEAM. If physical-device signing fails next, set the team in Xcode's Signing & Capabilities tab.
• The repo is currently on a detached HEAD, so push behavior may need special handling depending on the intended branch workflow.
• Beads Dolt sync is not currently available from this worktree because bd dolt pull reports no remote.

Follow-up Work

• Run once on the actual iPhone from Xcode to confirm install and launch on device.
• Consider setting a project development team if this app should install from fresh checkouts without manual signing setup.
