Upgraded app fails to load in iOS, Assertion failed

[nmandyam]

I tried to upgrade a running app from 7.x to 8.5.2. The app fails to load on iOS (simulator and device) - log below. Here's the environment: nativescript 8.5.3 @nativescript/core 8.5.3 @nativescript/ios 8.5.2 nativescript-ui-listview 15.2.3

The app fails to load, after the launch event completes, with this log:

I've done an ns clean, blown away the package-lock.json, all the usual things clearing hooks, node_modules and platforms. No dice. Please help!
