iOS setup instructions are out of date and do not work with the latest versions

Problem Statement

Basically, if you open a fresh IntelliJ project with Kotlin 2.0.20 and attempt to reproduce the iOS setup, the project fails to sync.

There are several issues, namely the cocoapods plugin definition needs to also be added at the project-leved build gradle along with its version, and the cocoapods {} block syntax has been changed:

hey! thanks for pointing it out, right this moment I am working on improving the getting started docs, I'll look out for kotlin 2.0.20

Thank you.
I got this issue next:
gradle/gradle#20084
which is resolved by a workaround in gradle.properties:
kotlin.apple.deprecated.allowUsingEmbedAndSignWithCocoaPodsDependencies=true

However I still get an error when building the project in XCode, do you want me to create a separate issue?

[buenaflor]

yes please create a separate issue
