Description

During the build process for IOS, xcrun is called with the "-v" option for verbose output. As part of the output, xcrun prints out all the environment variables. This can be a security issue on CI servers because CI servers often provide a way to store encrypted secrets that are decrypted and put in environment variables during the build. When xcrun prints out all the environment variables, the output on the CI server is then logged containing the unencrypted versions of the secrets.

Current the workaround is to use the --noSign option and then call xcrun directly. However, it would be nice to remove the "-v" option when calling "xcrun" in Cordova.
