Fix simulator device selection for UI tests

[seanperez29]

Use xcrun simctl list to find available simulators instead of matching against a hardcoded list of device names. This is more reliable as it directly queries booted/available devices and uses the simulator UUID for precise targeting.

Walkthrough

The test-ui Makefile target's iOS simulator detection logic was refactored. When IOS_SIMULATOR_DESTINATION is unset, the method for finding and selecting an available simulator changed from using xcodebuild -showdestinations with name-based matching to using xcrun simctl list devices available with UUID-based identification.

Changes

Poem

🐰 A makefile change, swift and clean,
Where simulators are found by machine,
No more names in the shell we chase,
Just UUIDs running the race—
The rabbit hops with delight! 🏃‍♂️✨
