Real Apple TV units are discovered over the same go-ios path as iPhones and iPads, so detect them by product type (AppleTV*) and report platform tvos. Route real tvOS devices through a shared installResignedRunner helper that downloads devicekit-tvos-runner.ipa and re-signs it with the provisioning profile, and suffix-match the tvOS runner bundle id so the re-signed, team-prefixed id is recognised. Add unit tests for platform detection and agent matching. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

Builds on top of mobile-next#292 (tvOS simulator support) to install and drive the runner on a real Apple TV, mirroring the existing iOS real-device path.
What this adds
IOSDevice.Platform()returnstvoswhen the deviceProductTypestarts withAppleTV(e.g.AppleTV14,1), otherwiseios. Real Apple TVs connect over the network but enumerate through the same go-ios/usbmuxd path as iPhones and iPads, so product type is the reliable discriminator.agent installnow handles a real tvOS target: it downloadsdevicekit-tvos-runner.ipaand re-signs it with the supplied provisioning profile. The iOS and tvOS install paths share a newinstallResignedRunnerhelper, soinstallAgentOnRealIOSandinstallAgentOnRealTVOSdiffer only in the artifact name.agentMatchesAppsuffix-matches the runner bundle id for both platforms, since re-signing on a real device adds a team prefix.Note on the checksum
The pinned SHA-256 for
devicekit-tvos-runner.ipais a placeholder (all zeros) with a TODO, because the artifact isn't published from a devicekit-ios release yet. Real installs will fail checksum verification until that's filled in. This follows the same convention as the existing tvos-Sim checksum note.Verification
go build ./...,go vet, andgo test ./cli/... ./utils/... ./devices/...all pass. Full physical install needs Apple TV hardware plus a published runner IPA, which I couldn't do here.Related PRs:
