Fix iOS Podfile pod injection corrupting START/END markers

[shanerbaner82]

Summary

Fixes the 3.3.0 regression where native:run (iOS) fails at pod install with a Ruby syntax error:

pod 'FirebaseMessaging', '~> 12.6.0'_START
...
pod 'FirebaseMessaging', '~> 12.6.0'_END

The shipped iOS Podfile template (resources/xcode/Podfile) wraps the injection site in a paired marker block inside def shared_pods:

  # NATIVEPHP_PLUGIN_PODS_START
  # NATIVEPHP_PLUGIN_PODS_END

addPodDependencies() was checking str_contains($podfile, '# NATIVEPHP_PLUGIN_PODS') and then str_replace('# NATIVEPHP_PLUGIN_PODS', …). That shared prefix matches both marker lines, so str_replace appends the generated pod lines onto each marker, leaving the literal _START / _END suffixes hanging off the last pod line — exactly the broken Podfile reported.

Fix

• Detect the full START…END block with an ms-mode regex and replace the whole block (preserving the markers) via preg_replace_callback. The callback bypasses backreference parsing in the replacement string, so pod names with $ or \ cannot mangle the output. Idempotent on re-run.
• Pods stay inside def shared_pods, so both the NativePHP and NativePHP-simulator targets pick them up — preserving the template's intent.
• A second branch preserves backwards compatibility with the legacy single # NATIVEPHP_PLUGIN_PODS marker (with a \b(?!_) guard so it doesn't re-match the new paired markers).
• createPodfile() now emits the paired-marker template so freshly created Podfiles take the canonical injection path.

Test plan

• Apply this patch on a 3.3.0 app with iOS plugins (e.g. nativephp/mobile-firebase) and run native:install --force → npm run build → native:run
• Confirm pod install succeeds and the generated nativephp/ios/Podfile has pods between the START/END markers, inside def shared_pods
• Confirm running native:run a second time does not duplicate or further mutate the marker block (idempotency)
• Confirm an app with no iOS plugins still produces a valid Podfile (markers preserved, no pods between them)
