Retroarch: Retroarch 1.9.0 missing features on iOS 13.6.1

[hernan43]

Description

On iOS 13.6.1, using Retroarch 1.9.0 some features have gone missing. Specifically cheats, rewind support, and the ability to take screenshots. If I downgrade to a 1.8.x release the features return.

In the case of Rewind the setting for the feature no longer even appear in the frame throttle settings menu.

As another test, I built the latest version Retroarch in XCode and the features are not there either.

Steps to reproduce the bug

1. Open Retroarch 1.9.0 in iOS and play a game
2. Bring up Retroarch quick menu
3. See that the cheats options are gone
4. Try and take a screenshot using the hotkey+defined screenshot button
5. No screenshot is taken
6. Try and use rewind via the hotkey+defined rewind button
7. No rewind

Version/Commit

• RetroArch: 1.9.0 stable release (installed via Altstore.io)

Environment information

• OS: iOS 13.6.1
• Compiler: Xcode

I made a PR awhile back to add back cheats and made a PR (#11271) to add
back screenshots, rewind and patching.

I created a new Xcode project to support Metal and some flags didn't get
brought over for some reason. This should be fixed in 1.9.1.
