Why
Prebuilding native packages to make compilation faster was generally a good idea, but it turned out to bring more troubles than gains, especially when someone's Xcode version was not matching the one used by the publisher.
Right now, since many of packages are in Swift, it no longer makes sense to prebuild them.
We already disabled prebuilding for many packages, so this PR is just a sunset of that idea.
How
Removed prebuilding tasks from the publish pipeline
Test Plan
Not even necessary 馃槄
