refactor!: do not copy JS lib to platform project

[erisu]

Motivation and Context

The goal of this PR is to remove the pratice of copying the entire JS lib of cordova-ios into each generated platform project.

Description

• create: do not copy our JS lib (or node_modules) to platform project
• Move files around
  • bin/lib/create.js to lib/
  • bin/templates/scripts/cordova/lib to lib/
  • bin/templates/scripts/cordova/Api.js to lib/

After these changes, the cordova/ folder of a generated project only contains the bare minimum to maintain compatibility with existing cordova CLI versions (plus defaults.xml which IMHO should be moved in another PR). All of the remaining JS files in that folder require their dependencies via the cordova-ios module, so that needs to be resolvable somehow (which is the case for a platform project generated by the regular CLI workflow).

Testing

• existing tests pass
• I successfully created and built a cordova-ios project using cordova@10

@erisu Hi! Could you please tell me how to change from old method of getting /cordova/lib/projectFile.js to new one?
Here is code:
// try cordova 7.0 structure
const IosPlatformApi = require( path.join( iosPlatformPath(), "/cordova/Api" ) );
const projectFileApi = require( path.join( iosPlatformPath(), "/cordova/lib/projectFile.js" ) );
const locations = ( new IosPlatformApi() ).locations;
projectFile = projectFileApi.parse( locations );

the lib files remain inside node_modules now, instead of being copied into the ios xcode project.

projectFile.js is not exposed in a public way, so if you need it, it would be great to learn why and maybe in the future we can add a public interface into it.

A hacky way getting access to projectFile.js is to simply require it: require('cordova-ios/lib/projectFile.js').

Note the old way that you posted might still be required if you intend to support cordova-ios 6 and earlier. Here is an example of how this plugin does it to support both versions.
