WIP Initial commit

This creates a Swift package with an example app, linting and formatting
commands, CI pipeline, README, and contributing guidelines.

In the absence of guidance or data about which minimum Swift version to
use, I decided to use the latest release at time of writing (5.10). We
can revisit this later if need be.

The SwiftLint rules are taken from our Asset Tracking repo at commit
b39e5187. They seemed like a good starting point (I had previously done
some thinking about these rules in [1]), and we can tweak them as
needed. I’ve enabled the private_swiftui_state rule (seems useful) and
also inverted its default trailing comma rule (for compatibility with
SwiftFormat).

Upon realising that SwiftLint and SwiftFormat have clashing opinions on
trailing commas, I worried that there might turn out to be other clashes
between the two. So I then hoped that we could get away with just using
SwiftLint, which does have some style rules. But it doesn’t enforce some
basic things like indentation. I hope that there aren’t further clashes
between the two tools, but we won’t find out until we write more code.

We use Mint to run SwiftLint and SwiftFormat. This allows us to lock
their versions, which we can’t do with Homebrew. It’s unfortunate that
for some reason SwiftLint takes an eternity to build using Mint, but
it’s a one-time thing per developer. I originally ran these tools as
Swift package plugins, but SwiftLint’s plugin was crashing when run in
Xcode 16 beta, hence the switch to Mint. Maybe we can switch back
sometime.

The build scripts used by CI, as well as the linting scripts, are
implemented as a Swift command-line tool. Hopefully we’ll find this
easier to maintain and modify than a set of Bash scripts.
