Add Swift as a language in ffigen #1039

We can't directly interop with Swift, but we're building tools that will allow Swift interop via ObjC. Ffigen should automatically invoke these tools.

Project proposal on: https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/wiki/Dart-GSoC-2024-Project-Ideas#idea-swiftobjc-compatibility-tool

Possible names:

ffigen_swift "It's FFIgen for Swift"
swiftgen It's like FFIgen and JNIgen for Swift. (And it does happen to generate some swift code as well.)
