By default a type's namespace is the Objective-C framework it belongs to, but this
isn't always right (we make mistakes, Apple can move types between frameworks, etc.),
so add an attribute that can specify this if it doesn't match the namespace.

Pull request overview

Adds a new ObjCRuntime.ObjectiveCFrameworkAttribute to explicitly declare which native Objective-C framework a managed type belongs to (instead of inferring solely from the managed namespace), and wires this into the build/linker framework-gathering logic.

Changes:

  • Introduce ObjectiveCFrameworkAttribute and include it in shared sources + bgen build inputs.
  • Update bgen to emit [ObjectiveCFramework ("...")] when present on types.
  • Update framework gathering to respect the attribute, and annotate known mis-namespaced bindings (e.g., NSStringDrawingContext, AVCustomRoutingControllerDelegate).
