I ran into the same problem with my project.
I find the Ionic PR helpful indeed. It can be applied to Cordova as well.

As a quick solution until #1374 is merged, the following code can be added to a project's config.xml at the <platform name="ios"> node. It ensures the necessary changes are inserted into the Info.plist file when the project is built, without the need to modify the local cordova-ios module:

<config-file parent="UTImportedTypeDeclarations" target="*-Info.plist">
    <array>
        <dict>
            <key>UTTypeConformsTo</key>
            <array>
                <string>public.data</string>
            </array>
            <key>UTTypeDescription</key>
            <string>WebAssembly</string>
            <key>UTTypeIdentifier</key>
            <string>$(PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER)</string>
            <key>UTTypeTagSpecification</key>
            <dict>
                <key>public.filename-extension</key>
                <string>wasm</string>
                <key>public.mime-type</key>
                <string>application/wasm</string>
            </dict>
        </dict>
    </array>
</config-file>
