Issues when trying to use in iOS with Cocoapods in a dynamic framework

[nachoBonafonte]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I would like to use PLCrashReporter as a dependency of another dynamic library say A when using Cocoapods in iOS. But as the PLCrashReporter framework is distributed as a vendored static framework, it forces to make A framework static or fails when running pod install in the app that references framework A. Fails with a message like: target has transitive dependencies that include statically linked binaries

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to have a way to use PLCrashReporter with Cocoapods with iOS or tvOS as a dynamic framework (as macOS version is doing)

Describe alternatives you've considered
Don't know if that can be done using a subspec and a different vendored build, or a different podspec is needed for that.

Hey, @nachoBonafonte , thanks for bringing this to our sight.
We're going to discuss it with our team, and see if there's anything we can do at this point.

Hi @olmisa, any news on this front? Thanks a lot

@nachoBonafonte sorry to say, but we have no plans to release dynamic framework for iOS yet.

Also, the error message makes sense: if the library is already linked to the dynamic framework binary, it should not be a transitive dependency.
Possible workaround here is to include PLCrashReporter via not CocoaPods.
