[@capacitor/geolocation@8.0.0] Not working in iOS 16

[FranciskoNeves]

After I update the @capacitor/geolocation plugin from 7.1.7 to 8.0.0, my app in iOS 16, the getCurrentPosition method stopped receiving GPS coordinates, but I still get them in iOS 26.

Maybe it could be a problem with the new IONGeolocationLib (https://github.com/ionic-team/ion-ios-geolocation) that bumped from 1.0.2 to 2.0.0 and added some breaking changes.

Hey @FranciskoNeves, thank you for opening this. We are aware that IONGeolocationLib contains breaking changes, which were necessary to start using the timeout parameter similar to what was existing in Android - Refer to 8.0.0 release notes.

So, when you say no longer receiving coordinates, what error are you receiving: OS-PLUG-GLOC-0010? That would indicate you may need to set a higher timeout value, and possibly you were obtaining the location beforehand but it took some seconds? Or are you receiving location one time / sporadically in iOS 16 with the latest plugin version?

Please provide more information on what is occurring in getCurrentPosition, and if possible, share how you're calling getCurrentPosition, or better yet, share a reproduction app on GitHub so we can assess.

Thank you!
