Description

Background:

Cordova 8.x documents minimum Xcode as follows:

• Xcode 8 for iOS (cordova-docs@master; README.md in cordova-ios@4.5.x & cordova-ios@master)
• Xcode 6 for cordova-osx (cordova-docs@master; README.md in cordova-osx@4.0.x & cordova-osx@master)

.travis.yml for cordova-ios was upgraded from Xcode 8 to Xcode 9 in cordova-ios@master

Apple demands minimum Xcode version 9 for app store.

It is not desired for contributors and committers to continue supporting old Xcode version.
