Mac Catalyst: Read IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET from environment variable to support Clang 13

[imWildCat]

Background

Clang 13 removed the x86_64-apple-ios13.0-macabi target, where 13.0 is hardcoded in cc-rs.

Proof:

➜  temp clang -target x86_64-apple-ios13.1-macabi i.c
➜  temp clang -target x86_64-apple-ios13.0-macabi i.c
clang-13: error: invalid version number in '-target x86_64-apple-ios13.0-macabi'
➜  temp clang --version
Homebrew clang version 13.0.1
Target: arm64-apple-darwin21.4.0
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /opt/homebrew/bin
➜  temp cat i.c

int main() {
	return 0;
}
➜  temp

This PR is to remove this hardcoded version and read it from IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET.

How to test

In this commit imWildCat/BLAKE3@f7bfd77, I changed cc-rs to my branch.

The build command and its output is like

[imWildCat]

I'm not sure whether it is a good way. But as an iOS developer, I believe it makes sense. Because in Xcode, Mac Catalyst minimal version is highly related to minimal iOS version. For example, if I choose iOS 14.0, I can only pick macOS 11+ for this situation:

This is one of the things I'm suggesting to address differently in #664.

So we no longer hardcode this as of #727. But I also think rustc itself is probably broken WRT how it handles catalyst, and would like to figure out the right fix there before doing too much in cc.

@thomcc sure, thanks for the update!
