Wrapped plugins appear as folders instead of packages on Mac #28

Tested on macOS Monterey 12.6.1 with a 2020 M1 Silicon MacBook Pro.

Merely a cosmetic thing, the wrapped plugin is a regular folder, as opposed to real VST3 plugins, which are some kind of "package" on macOS.

Is it possible to build the wrapped plugin so it appears as a package?

Do you know which SMTG_ switch I need to set that the VST3 SDK builds packages instead of bundles?

The manual fix to this is to do a SetFile -a B foo.vst3 but I still haven't figured out why the VST3 SDK doesn't do that for us.

oh and it is not just cosmetic. While Bitwig will load the folder version, Cubase, Dorico and Reaper will not it seems.

As @defiantnerd found out, this occurs if you use cmake with a generator other than Xcode. So if you just rebuild with -G Xcode it should all be fine.
