utils: better XToolCache location (#409 )

## What does this PR do?

Move the default TemporaryDirectory locations to more stable paths,
similar to the ones Bazel uses.

- on macOS we now default to `\(URL.cachesDirectory)/sh.xtool` (usually
`~/Library/Caches/sh.xtool`)
- on Linux we (continue to) default to
`${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-~/.cache}/xtool`
- we no longer respect `$TMPDIR`. One can still use `$XTL_TMPDIR` to
override.

## How was it tested?

- [x] Cache directory locations are as expected

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **Bug Fixes**
* Temporary-directory selection now ignores empty `XTL_TMPDIR` values
and no longer falls back to `TMPDIR`.
* Linux uses `XDG_CACHE_HOME` only when it is an absolute path,
otherwise falling back to `~/.cache`.
* **Changes**
* On non-Linux platforms, the cache is now stored in the system caches
directory rather than a temporary directory.
* **Documentation**
  * Updated the documented temporary-directory settings.

sdk: SwiftBuild support (#229 )

## What does this PR do?

Adds support for SwiftBuild on Swift 6.4.

We now point SwiftBuild to iPhoneOS.platform and rely on the real
[SWBApplePlatform](https://github.com/swiftlang/swift-build/tree/b30ee3c00abf34857084c26bb873c3da06348134/Sources/SWBApplePlatform).
We also do a little futzing to convince SWB to use our Darwin-compatible
toolset (lld, librarian, resource dirs). We explicitly _don't_ pass in a
Swift SDK because that would downgrade SWB to using one of the generic
platform plugins instead of ApplePlatform.

This also gets us a lot closer to parity with Xcode's behavior when
building for Apple platforms; we get the same build flags and
everything. We can probably achieve identical bundling too, if we take
control of the PIF.

One other change: since we need to pass custom env vars and such, we
can't rely on sourcekit-lsp's built-in SwiftPM integration anymore. We
thus create a custom BSP server that trampolines to SwiftPM's build
server with the right flags set. This effectively makes SwiftPM an
implementation detail, so we can start messing with the PIF.

## How was it tested?

- [x] Build with Swift 6.3 on macOS
- [x] Build with Swift 6.4 on macOS
- [x] Build with Swift 6.3 on Linux
- [x] Build with Swift 6.4 on Linux
- [x] BSP/LSP file creation works
- [x] LSP support works in VSCode

## Summary by CodeRabbit

- **New Features**
- Added a `dev build-server` command for Build Server Protocol
integration.
- Projects automatically select the appropriate Swift build system when
supported.
- Packaging supports output layouts for Swift Package Manager and Swift
Build.
- Added options to skip language-server configuration when needed.

- **Documentation**
- Updated project templates and tutorials to use `.bsp/xtool.json` for
IDE features such as syntax highlighting and documentation lookup.

- **Improvements**
- Enhanced SDK generation and compatibility across supported toolchains
and platforms.
- Improved automatic language-server configuration while preserving
existing configuration files.
