8.20.0 upgrade prevents project from building

[squarefrog]

Describe the bug 🐛
We use the instantsearch-ios 7.26.1 package in our app. About an hour ago we noticed our CI pipelines were failing with the following output:

❌  error: The package product 'AlgoliaSearchClient' requires minimum platform version 14.0 for the iOS platform, but this target supports 12.0 (in target 'InstantSearchCore' from project 'InstantSearch')
❌  error: The package product 'AlgoliaSearchClient' requires minimum platform version 14.0 for the iOS platform, but this target supports 12.0 (in target 'InstantSearch' from project 'InstantSearch')
❌  error: The package product 'AlgoliaSearchClient' requires minimum platform version 14.0 for the iOS platform, but this target supports 12.0 (in target 'InstantSearchInsights' from project 'InstantSearch')

After some digging, I can see instant search package references this package using the from rule, so it was naturally updated.

Our project has a minimum deployment target of iOS 15, so there should be no reason this change is a breaking one.

To Reproduce 🔍
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a new Xcode project in Xcode 15, targeting iOS
2. Set the minimum deployment target to iOS 15
3. Add https://github.com/algolia/instantsearch-ios as a package dependency, with the rule set to exact and the version 7.26.1
4. Add all frameworks
5. Build

Expected behavior 💭
Package should build without failure for products targeting iOS 14 or above.

Screenshots 🖥

Environment:

• OS: iOS
• Version: 15.0
• Swift Package Manager
• Xcode 15.2

Additional context
Manually adding algoliasearch-client-swift with a locked version of 8.19.0 allows the project to build again, as this overrides the from rule locally

Actually, I think this is an issue with instantsearch-ios as the minimum target for that package is iOS 9. I would however argue bumping the minimum version is probably a major release rather than minor following semver rules.

I’ll close this as a duplicate on the parent package.
