Subject: [PATCH] Build releases on the Xcode 27.1 runner

The iPhone Duo hinge and status-column code uses iOS 27.1 SDK APIs, which
the macos-26 image (Xcode 26.6 max) cannot compile. Build jobs move to the
xcode-27 runner and select the 27.1 RC by full path, since the
Xcode_27.1.app symlink is ambiguous with the beta and App Store Connect
rejects beta-built uploads.
