CocoaPods support

[radex]

If the team is open to doing this, I'd be interested in adding a .podspec file to this repo. This would allow people to use this library via CocoaPods, which would make it more useful for iOS development today.

Even if no-one at Apple is interested in pushing and maintaining the library in CocoaPods trunk, a Podspec in the repo would allow people to fetch new versions of it like so:

pod 'swift-protobuf-runtime', git: '[email protected]:apple/swift-protobuf-runtime.git'

Sounds like a great idea!
Send us a Pull Request with the .podspec file.

While you're at it, it would be great to add a short section to the README.md pointing out how to use this with CocoaPods.

Fixed by #5.

@tbkka do you want to hold off on publishing the pod until things are fully stable?

[tbkka]

Personally, I would be happy if folks held off on publishing pods until things settle down.

People that really really want it can always point their Podfile to this GitHub repo. On the other hand, it's fair game for things versioned < 1.0 to be a moving ground.
